Post It Sketches

I've started reading

The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards. I'll continue posts as I work through the book and see what kinds of improvements occur.

I've also started doing some sketches on 3 x 5 "Post It" notes. It turns out these are a good size to hold in one hand while sketching, yet still big enough to actually draw on.

There are quite a few areas I need to improve on, but most especially:

• maintaining symmetry (see how asymmetrical the face is above)
  
• proportions and scale (see how the head is out of proportion to the body above).
• shading overall, but especially maintaining the same level of shading throughout the sketch.
