As someone who is entirely self-taught, though; what I valued most of all In Foundations was the way in which you made us stop and think about what we were doing, and why – and to question and consider with each core concept. This helped me understand why some things are not working for me – and enabled me to develop and to change my technique without fear of ‘doing it wrong’. The whole class, content, teaching, flow, pace, homework prompts have been excellent, and so enjoyable.

Since taking SketchingNow Foundations I have continued to question ‘how’ I am approaching my subject – and to try new techniques and approaches. Previously, I always worked in a very structured, detailed way – but now ‘embrace the wonkiness’ has become my strapline! To add to this, I got the confidence, together with a friend, to start up a new Urban Sketchers Group for Bristol and the South West UK, and we have our second sketch crawl this weekend! So not only did Sketching Now help me – it is also helping other sketchers in the area – which is a pretty good result all round.
