Sketches in 3 Minutes By Masao Yamada Kobunsha, 8th Printing, September 2007 Shinsho size, Price: 700 yen, 229 pages The faster you draw, the better your picture will be. The sketching expression I will propose to you in this book is not one that takes time to carefully draw every detail. As a word to convey the appeal of pen-based line drawings, if I am allowed to coin a word, it might be called "choito sketch" (a little sketch), or "choi-suke" for short, from the image of sketching a little. In my case, I usually start drawing lines directly with a black pen without sketching with a pencil. If the sketch is completed in about 3 to 5 minutes, you will have the impression that it was done in a flash. - Excerpt from the text 【Packed with tips for drawing quickly!】 ■ Only three common items are needed for tools ■ Don't draw lines with a ruler ■ Pay attention to the curve of the ellipse when drawing a circle ■ Handle gradations with a combination of lines and surfaces ■ Draw with two lines where you tend to draw with one line ■ For expressing depth, focus on where the lines converge to a single point ■ Don't draw things that are difficult to draw ■ Handle repetitions of shapes and patterns with the "omission method" A practical guide to learning sketches in a short time.
