Hello Rhoda,

You are really getting into your sketches that you share with us, and I think it may be a good opportunity for you if you could share with us how you do it from start to finish.

For example, do you use paper or card. What drawing materials do you use; coloured pencils, crayons, etc., or maybe a combination of several mediums.

What inspires you to choose a particular subject to sketch.

I think a little mini tutorial would be helpful to members who have never tried sketching before, and would like to give it a go but don't know where to start.

We already have a Forum called Astronomy Sketching that you could post a tutorial.

Obviously, that is your choice to do that Rhoda - no pressure :lol:
