Sketch Critique & Improvement

yo:

One thing hat I like that I’m seeing here is the volume of sketching. This is the right amount to be going on a regular basis if you want to improve. When I fgraduated college and got my first job at a design consulting studio my target was to sketch 8 client ready concepts per day. I was working a 10 hour day so a little less than one client ready idea sketched well enough that a client could get excited by it every hour… I did that most days for about 4 years. The first couple of years I couldn’t do it. Some days I would sketch 15 sketches per day but end up with 1 or none that were good enough in both concept and execution to show a client. By the 4th year I was doing 10-12 per day and working with CAD modelers on executions client down selects… my point is it takes time, commitment, and a certain level of sheer volume to get there.

Thank you for the insight. Hope to see an improvement with this thread, more content coming soon.
