Different goals I think.<br /><br />One thing I do sometimes is use my cell phone to 'plan'. I have the camera give me a grid and I can change the orientation and zoom in/out to look at different scene framing. It's quick, probably not optimal, but it works for me and doesn't get in the way of the spontaneity of my sketching process.larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499637631503513759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220865105573981879.post-37363631538804880562015-04-10T19:45:00.309-07:002015-04-10T19:45:00.309-07:00Nice sketch of the oil sign.
