Sketching: The Basics concerns the study of drawing form for designers.It is about
learning to draw efficiently by employing different techniques,both manual and digital.Drawing an object or idea is not a rigid process but a lively interactive process. Revealing the steps in that process, the authors explain the decisions taken and their
impact on the final result.

During the drawing process there are many moments when choices alter the outcome. Being aware of those moments and the variety of choices and opportunities makes your attitude more flexible and less rigid. Students learn to start sketching with an open mind instead of a fixed idea.
