        Sunday morning, I’m reading our local newspaper.
        Found this nice picture from the sports section.
        An opportunity for me to practice quick sketching.
        And so I did.
        Here it is:

        This is using a pen & ink plus a basic watercolor on a cheap sketchbook.
        Sketching time is around 20-30 minutes.

            I like it very much.
            The perspective is like the one of a wide angle camera.
            What type of ink do you use? Indian ink or any markers?

                I use China ink. It’s a cheap ink. It’s not even suitable for watercolor because it’s not waterproof. The only reason why it worked in my case is because I did it in a sketchbook (not a watercolor paper type)

                    I understand. On a real watercolor paper the paint would solve easily the ink lines.
                    Thank you :)
