Pencil sketching can be done anywhere. Most of these
sketches were done on the spur of the moment while
traveling, and without too much consideration for compo-
sition and framing. They are spontaneous and quick. They
record rather than express, describing the facts instead
of interpreting hidden meanings. They are intended to be
simple in order to illustrate how easy a technique pencil
sketching can be.Most of the sketches were drawn with regular number
2 pencils. They demonstrate that pencil sketching does
not have to be an elaborate process. Unlike water color-
ing or painting, there is virtually no “prep” time involved.
All you need is a piece of paper and a pencil.EXAMPLES
