While the folks at Freethink had the cameras rolling for that video on Jonathan Ward and Icon, they captured participating designer Michael DiTullo talking about sketching. Not all of that footage was relevant to the Icon video, so they spliced it together into this short-‘n-sweet video capturing DiTullo’s thoughts on sketching:
Says DiTullo: “[Sketching] isn’t a talent anymore than learning to speak French is a talent. It is a skill that is cultivated overtime through discipline and practice.
"Sketching is a way of thinking and a way of communicating. It is a way to transfer an idea from one mind to another, and that is what I love it so much. When I was 13 I said I want to draw stuff from the future, 30 years later that is still the best description for what I do.”
