I don't know what the correlation between listening to audio books and the quality of my sketches, but I can tell you that there is definitely a correlation. My sketches are better in general and exhibit better overall composition when I'm listening to an audio book. They're still not perfect but they are better. Is it because I am focused on the book and so only my observational skills are employed for the sketch - does it help me not to over-analyze?
Found a pattern for a simple bear on pinterst - decided to do one of them yesterday evening. It didn't take long and I think it turned out ok. What do you think? I'm not crazy about the shape of the arms - am going to make those a little different next time. I enjoyed doing it so much that I think I'm going to re-purpose those millions of old shirts into cute little plush dolls I can send with our church members when they go on various mission trips. And I should have enough left to put into an Operation Christmas Child box or two this fall.
