These little sketches are a timed 3-minute fun practice. Find some photos and set your timer and go. Come to think of it, they aren’t 3 minutes really. After all 10 were done, I added the watercolour washes (quickly). The graphite was really smearing and adding a light wash stops the graphite from THE SMUDGE. So… 30 minutes plus a final 8? The practice helps when you are out in the field-, in the oh-so-big-live world, as it helps get your eye in and one feels less flustered with all the flitty, acrobatic movements that happen in real life. (Bless the Heron for its still posture.)
