Hi Gary,
I can definitely see that the workshop helped you a lot. Keep up the good work and keep practicing.
Thanks a lot FH13! I will do!
Here are a few more sketches from the workshop, these were focusing on mixing cold materials like metal or ceramic with warm materials like wood or cork. We were also focusing on rendering these materials for easy readability.

this thread actually popped up for me in a random google search (kind of amazing). I just scanned through it and I just want to applaud the amount of work @gmay3able, the original poster, put in here!

Hey thanks Michael!! 
This was such fun period of intense sketch study and it really happened because of everyone’s generosity to share their knowledge with me, that really kept me going. I’m really still amazed at the sharing culture of designers and I try to pay this forward when I can. This sketch journey really set me up to keep the pace of learning intense which served me well to push as far as in could in design school. It was so cool to get to meet you and Patrick Bowers (aka PB) in person over the years in Chicago for different design events after all of your help during this sketch journey
Since my last post, I had a great opportunity to be a summer ID intern with Rotimi Solola of SO Dsgn where I learned a ton, finished my final year at University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) Master of Design in Industrial Design (MDes) program and started working at TEAMS Design Chicago. I’ve recently tapped into my electrical engineering past to bring those skills to help our design concepts at TEAMS come to life by designing and building functional electronics into them to really test them out properly. Recently, I’ve also started a little hobby experimental design brand called MODULE! labs which is a product brand selling 3D printed items for synthesizers and I hope to expand into new areas of offering mechanical watch service / restoration and synthesizer / electronic instrument design.
Ok ok enough updates from me, now here’s a few semi-recent sketches
