Hi All,

Sorry for the late reply. These days I have so little time, its either blogging or commenting not both!

@Raghuraj: I dont have any references, but personally I liken sketching to what most designers do, getting the ideas down on paper. I see drawing as what artist do, where they reproduce what they see on paper. I may be wrong.

@Jim: Thanks for the blurbs. I usually don’t go into such detail and try to keep things simple. That’s what makes David’s description easy to understand.

@waikit: Thanks for the link!

@csven: Hey thanks for stopping by. I saw your discussion on his post. I intentionally only culled or edited the initial part of the quote, partly cos I did not quite understood the scope of the discussion and also did not want to go there!

@asango: That is a classic comment! Thanks for stopping by and leaving it.

@Billy: Hey thanks for your comment. Check out some of my sketches here: http://www.designsojourn.com/tips-on-how-to-improve-your-drawing-ability/

Agree with asango! It’s the act not just the otput that counts!

Only people who talk about doing stuff, instead of actually doing stuff, ever thought sketching was ‘dead’. Its the most important tool in anyone’s box, whether for problem solving or communicating. period.

and no sketching doesn’t have to pretty.
