Local soccer game

There is a soccer field very close to my house. Every weekend I can see people playing soccer there but I was never brave enough to sketch the players. I didn't think I could catch the people in motion. 

After a few sessions of sketching the musicians, today I thought I'd give it a try. Although today the players were mature players, they still ran and moved pretty fast. I tried to remember what I learnt from Marc Holmes and Suhita Shirodkar on Craftsy.com and applied the techniques. It was not an easy task but boy, I had a great time sitting on the bench!

  1. These are really excellent gestural sketches, Ching! I can sense their movement. You got the "lines of action" right!
