Here's a 2-point perspective sketch of a building done in 15 minutes (don't ask what this building is for since this is just an impromptu/conceptualization sketch - meaning I'm just drawing whatever form comes through my mind at that moment.) Anyway, I used 3 pens of varying thicknesses for this drawing, these are: 1) Pilot Hi Tecpoint V5 (commonly known as a "sign pen"); 2) Artline 725 Superfine Point Marker; and 3) Artline 700 Marker. All in black ink. The sketch pad I used is 9" x 12". And the background music is the Club Beats Mix of Salt 'n Peppa's song "Push It".

The point here is practicing "quick & dirty" sketches (i.e., overlapping lines, erasures, informal perspective, etc.) to visualize a design concept in the quickest time possible.

  • Wonderful, I am just venturing in this world can you please refer me any books or articles where I can learn the righ techniques and what not. I believe the key ingredient to be practice, it might take me a whole day to attempt what you did but maybe after 100 "whole days" I can do a 15 minute sketch aswell.
