Sketching is the ability to simplify an idea and communicate it by using lines on a page.
When you learn how to sketch it opens up doors creatively and gives you more freedom to
explore as you develop your own ideas. Whether your preparing for a career as a concept
artist, a digital illustrator, or just want to explore Photoshop for your own projects
digital sketching is your key to achieving these goals.

In this course I'll show you how to find your way around the Photoshop UI and then we'll walk
through three practice sessions as I deliver some key advice I've learned while using Photoshop
professionally in my own career. We'll start with a simple exercise using tracing techniques for
developing your line work. Then we'll move on to contouring techniques as I show you how to maintain
proper proportions in your sketches. Finally we'll explore some drawing through techniques as I show
you how to tackle difficult subjects by simplifying them into three dimensional forms using linear
perspective techniques.
