Learning to sketch

Among the most daunting skills for me to learn this year is sketching to communicate my ideas. Here I am working with my group on a Sketching User Experiences activity on collaborative sketching. In this exercise, we were tasked with jointly sketching in a whiteboard space, and what we see is that our bodies get in the way. Initially, my colleague Kathy on the left said she and I should be on the left because we’re left-handed. But later she noted that it is the other way around, if we were sketching on the right our bodies wouldn’t obscure the the sketch surface.
