Sketch techniques

Above about how to sketch.

Have you ever seen sketches either from an artist's sketchbook or in a gallery and there drawings always look really sketchy, there's something about them that you really like and want to emulate. Sketching isn't about drawing a likeness in a portrait or drawing things accurately, sketching is about being loose and bold and not worrying about making mistakes, letting your real feelings come out.

How to 
sketch techniquesThe whole point of sketching can be done in two different ways, one way is sketching as a preliminary to a painting or a finished drawing, the other way is just for the art and fun of sketching which if done properly can really turn into a work of art by itself. The sketch on the left is full of life and energy and you can only achieve this dynamic and rhythmic flow through sketching whether it is with watercolour, oil, charcoal, acrylic or any other medium.

How to 
sketch techniquesIn this detail of the same sketch we can see all the scribbles and marks that I have put down and each mark or scribble means something whether it is the form of the hair or the way tone has been laid in. The detail looks abstract in this example till we see the full sketch and then realise that everything is there that needs to be, look at the full size sketch and you can see what these marks and scribbles describe.

How to 
sketch techniquesTo do this sort of sketching you need to relax and let yourself go and not to be afraid of making mistakes and to have an understanding of form and shape. Once you know about form and shape try letting yourself go and lose all your inhibitions and preconceptions of what you might think drawing is all about. The example on the left is a simple sketch that is fluent and rhythmic, I wasn't really bothered about toenails or whether there was an highlight in the dogs eye. This sketch took two minutes to do and it is a good idea to set yourself a time limit to see what you can achieve.

Improve Sketching Techniques

Here are some of sketching techniques.

# Sketching is a way of freehand drawing, Detailers, designers, engineers, architects, engineers and industry to record their ideas on paper quickly, without allowing the use of tools. The moment they began their ideas, they can change and refine their sketches for presentation to their superiors or customers. Sketching is also helpful in planning a drawing or layout before using the tool.


# Sketches can be done in any kind of paper, white bond (preferred), newsprint, tracing paper napkins or transparent. White papers with light blue or gray grid lines in different grid sizes OF1 / 4 ", 1 / 8" or 1 / 10 "is helpful for beginners to design something the correct size. angled grid for isometric, oblique and perspective views are available for three-dimensional work.

  • A medium weight (H or HB) lead or drawing pencil with a rounded point works best for making freehand sketches. This pencil is hard enough to make a light line with a little finger pressure and soft enough to make a line darker by using more pressure.
  • Horizontal lines should be sketched by moving the hand and pencil from the left to the right if right handed. Avoid rotating your wrist as this will cause the line to arc. 5. Vertical lines should be sketched by moving the hand and pencil from the top in a downward direction. Keep the wrist locked to avoid arcing of line.
  • Angled lines should be sketched by moving the hand and pencil from the left to the right and angling upward or downward. Rotating the paper so lines are horizontal or vertical is also a good practice. Avoid rotating your wrist as this will cause the line to arc.
  • Arcs and circles should be sketched by creating horizontal and vertical center lines at the center point of the arc or circle. Next estimate the radius of the arc or circle on each center line and form a box with lines parallel to the center lines. Now start at the top of the box and create four arcs moving the pencil left to right and rotating the paper each time.
  • A multiview two dimensional (2D) sketch shows the actual shape of an object from different directions that are 90° apart. A typical multiview sketch will include views from the top, front and right side. The back, bottom and left side views are optional depending on the complexity of the objects shape.
