Drawing activities, art instruction, and advice for artists and non-artists alike.
Urban sketching--the process of drawing on the go as a regular practice--is a hot trend in the drawing world. It's also a practical necessity for creatively minded people in a busy world. In this aspirational guide, self-taught French artist France Belleville-Van Stone emboldens readers to craft a ritual of their own and devote more time to art, even if it's just 10 minutes a day. She offers motivation to move beyond the comfort zone, as well as instruction on turning rough sketches into finished work.
Belleville Van-Stone learned how to draw through her own daily practice and knows first-hand how hard it is to find time to incorporate creativity into a busy life. She encourages and teaches us how to do it with advice and guidance such as:
· An A-to-Z list of daily sketch prompts, from airports to bananas, faces to hands, meetings and workplaces
· Tips on what drawing supplies you can and should have--and how to carry them around
· Sections on accepting mistakes, drawing with limited resources, and redefining completion
· Plusses and minuses of going digital, including apps, styluses, and brushes
For those of us who dream of drawing in the minutes between school and work, bathtime and bedtime, and waking and walking out the door, the practical advice in Sketch! is a revelation. By sharing her own creative process, Belleville-Van Stone Sketch inspires artists both established and aspiring to rethink their daily practice, sketch for the pure joy of it, and document their lives and the world around them.

I've read a lot about sketching, and this book was similar to all I have read. Nice format and style, but not for an experienced sketcher.

How about this:
"The process that you go through, be it for ten minutes or three hours is the drawing. Like a visually impaired person has to feel someone's face with their hands to tell their features, I sit and gradually take in the details of a place or a person through the pen. While taking pictures with an SLR or smartphone is great fun, I feel involved on a much deeper level through the act of drawing. I sometimes walk through or past places I have drawn and am so well acquainted with them that I have the uncanny feeling of having lived there."
Or this:
"Dismissing drawing well as a gift is a cop-out. I think most of us who can draw a portrait or a tree do so because behind each drawing, there have been hours of prior drawings. I sucked before I could draw anything half-decenty, and unfortunately for me, sucking at drawing is not over. I still fail. I still draw painstakingly."
Add in quirky, warm sketches (she had me on the second sketch of Keith Richards), an A-Z of prompts to get drawing, suggestions for pens, pencils, paper and iPhone apps, and what you have is a brilliant, inspirational, accessible guide to sketching that focusses on the why more than the how, but that's as it should be. The how is for every person to work out for themselves. But you could do no better than start here.

Not Your Run-of-the-Mill Book On How to Sketch

Absolutely loved France Belleville-Van Stone's "Sketch!: The Non-Artist's Guide to Inspiration, Technique, and Drawing Daily Life," as it completely delivered on the title's promise. Now this is not a 'how to sketch' book in the traditional sense. Beyond the obligatory discussion on material choice (which was refreshingly non-dogmatic, by the way), the focus here is more subtle and nuanced. It was not until nearly the end that I realized that Ms. Belleville-Van Stone's journey is really the story of my journey (and the journey of many others, I suspect)--a burning desire to create coupled with the need to balance life's other activities and commitments, and still make art. Even in very small increments. I think that is what I found so inspirational--knowing that it's okay if you can only steal five minutes away out of your hectic day for a quick drawing that seems disjointed from the last quick drawing done in your 'cheap' sketchbook. Over time, the narrative of your work emerges (and your skill increases).
If you are looking for a more structured approach to incorporating a sketching habit into your daily life, there may be better books to get you there. However, if you are interested in how one woman has grown her art over time, with all of life's challenges and distractions, and feel you can apply the lessons learned to your own situation, I would highly recommend this book.

Charming introduction to drawing and sketching

France is ultra-honest about the outcomes of her drawing, some look like professional pieces, and some are very simple. I particularly like what she says about adjusting your expectations for very short sketches, an learning to live with unfinished pieces. There is a list of ideas to draw in the back that is fun and motivational. I wish it had been somewhat longer, but maybe in keeping with her drawings, she just said what she had to say and then let the book stand as it was, slightly unfinished.
