    WATTS Atelier students, can you help me?

    I am trying to learn to do quick sketches/gestures. I am struggling to find a method that works for me. I am interested in the "Abstraction" method being taught by EM Gist at the WATTS Atelier.

    Is there anyone who can explain what it is and how it works?

    Hey Elder,
    The links that Elwell posted sum up all that I have to say, and the second link adds to it (or visa-versa) nicely. If you have any other questions you can always ask them here.
