WORKING SKETCHES & PREPARATORY DRAWINGS BY HULDRICK
The drawings and sketches on this page are taken from my working sketchbooks.
I always like to have a sketchbook to hand when out and about. It is interesting to observe people and capture quick sketches of them going about their daily business.
It is a great discipline to sketch people naturally in the wild so to speak. You never know when they are going to move or get up and go so speed is the essence.
When on my travels I like to have a small sketchbook to hand. My favourite drawing tools are a soft water soluble pencil a water brush (brilliant tool) and an A6 hardback sketchbook. I bind these together with a velcro strap and it slips easily and inconspicuously into a pocket.

I sometimes carry a few basic watercolour pencils or some tubes of Gouache for added colour.
This make for simple colour sketches done at speed on location.
