I’m at Creative Sunday Lab, hosted by @jenniheffernanbrown, working on these Visual Shownotes™ of a TED talk by @isabelbehncke, Evolution’s gift of play, from bonobo apes to humans. 🖍
I’m not at a point where I can live capture a talk like this—the talk is under 20 minutes, and I’ve spent over two hours on this flipchart sketchnote! And it feels WAY too busy, and WAY too messy, and is filled with mistakes. But practice is practice. Every time I do ANYTHING related to sketchnoting or visual facilitation/visual communication/visual notetaking, I learn. 🖍
EVERY time I do something that makes me think, “Well, THAT didn’t work…” And you know what? THAT is when the learning happens!! Because only when I make those “mistakes” can I figure out what would work better! 🖍
So go out and try something, knowing that it’s not going work the way you want. That’s the way we grow! We need the crap to fertilize the good stuff! 😊

May 17 is Walnut Day, Cherry Cobbler Day, and Pack Rat Day. All things I learned thanks to the May monthly creative challenge inside the Creative Sandbox Community! 😊
🖍
I am not a photorealist, nor do I aspire to be. I like to figure out how to quickly communicate concepts through sketching. That’s what I use the monthly creative challenges for: to grow my visual vocabulary. Other members use it to work on strengthening their drawing muscles, or to have a writing prompt every day. It’s up to you. It’s a fun way to stretch and share, and be inspired by each other. 😊
🖍
Community is great for that.
