My husband and I attended our kids' band concert. I often listen to music in the studio so I decided to try a few sketches while we enjoyed their performance. I haven't been sketching much at all this year, and after my daily habit the first half of last year, I am finding I really miss it.

For the second sketch I decided to take it easy on myself. I chose an audience member thinking a spectator would be more still than any of the band members. And I did feel more confident with the second sketch.

nice sketches :) really great lines in the head :)
i wish i had any suggestions for getting more sketching done, i find sketching to help with stress a lot. getting more sketching in would be great so hopefully someone has some suggestions.
Thanks Jennifer!
I agree that when my sketches go well the process can be a great stress reliever. Of course if I am out of practice and the sketch isn't looking the way I want, it can be a stress creator! Which is another good reason to regularly flex those sketching muscles. ;)
No good suggestions for how to keep a more regular sketching practice yet, but if I hear any I will pass them along to you.
