Talking Points

• "Sketching is like telling a story with your pencil. You can create whole worlds on a piece of paper."
• "Pay attention to the details of the objects you are sketching. The little things can make a big difference!"
• "Perspective drawing helps make your sketches look 3D. It's like creating an illusion of depth on a flat surface."
• "Don't worry about making mistakes. Sketching is about practice and improvement, so embrace the learning process."
