How to use Post it Notes to Sketch: Part 2

by Arvind Ramkrishna on March 9, 2010

Ok…Here is the 2nd part of our post it note sketching series.  Having an awesome time sketching on these little yellow bad boys!  As I had explained in my first post, sketching on post it notes allows you to quickly generate some ideas, compositions, and perspectives without having to commit so much time and energy into completing a full drawing.  It is an excellent way to also use these smaller drawings as a template to creating a larger version.

When I started shooting this video, my two year old son was playing with his little cars in the background.  Poor little guy…I actually got him hooked on cars at such an early age.  Now all he thinks about are cars! So hopefully you won’t get too distracted by the noise in the background.  Enjoy!
