I'll second that. There is so much I don't like about my sketch but it is what it is. We are all learning and experimenting and hopefully improving.

The real reason I enjoy sketching is because it makes me look longer and more closer and the subject. My recent sketch was about 45min going between EP and sketch. If I was just viewing I would probably only look for 5min tops.

It's easy to get caught up trying to put all the detail you can see into a sketch. If I am doing a small area like a single crater I will go for detail, but when sketching a wider view I go for a more general lay of the land look.
