Travel Sketching Tips from my NZ Sketchbooks

In this video I share lots of travel sketching strategies and tips while going through my sketchbook from my recent trip to New Zealand. I cover a number of topics including: how I reviewed and adjusted sketches that I knew at the time were not quite right, how I made decisions as to what media and approach to use in different situations while travelling, how I fitted my sketching into the day, why I choose to leave some sketches incomplete, and much more! I hope you enjoy it and find some useful tips that you can implement in your own sketching! ------------------------------------ Please make sure you check out Chris Haldane's gorgeous paintings on Instagram or Flickr.   / chris_haldane   https://www.flickr.com/photos/chaldane7/ Links to articles mentioned in the video.
