Sketch Crawl Reflection

     I think one of my strengths about my sketching is I could quickly catch a portion of a view and show it on my sketchbook. I also become more familiar with  hatching & value. I like drawing small details in order to make my drawing look more real. I think the biggest weakness for my sketching is my patience. Especially when I firstly began to sketch, I always feel impatient of re-drawing again and again in order to getting the correct positions and the proportions of objects and I realized every time when I had that emotion, my work ended with a mess. I was eagerly to see my improvements even though I didn’t put much effort. Then gradually, after I have found the problem, I began to develop my patience because I still had a lot interests in sketching and I believe I could do well if a sit down with calm emotions and enough patients. The skilled urban sketcher also mentioned this point at the Sketch Crawl that if you keep doing it, finally you would get it. They spent years of time on sketching and their works looked all amazing. I think in the future time, I will sketch more and more with steady and patient emotions in order to develop more skills and become more professional.
