What is sketchouting
Sketchnoting is a method of taking notes that combines drawing, writing and engaging visual thinking. Unlike regular notes, sketchwriting helps you create vivid and memorable notes. This is a great method to structure and easily digest information. Sketchouting does not imply improvement in drawing; it is aimed only at conveying the essence and better memorizing.
“Visual Notes” by Mike Rowdy
The book “Visual Notes: An Illustrated Guide to Sketchouting” by American author Mike Rowdy is not a drawing guide, but an exciting journey into the world of visual thinking and quick recording of information. Mike, a true sketchbook master, demonstrates how to turn boring notes into vivid, memorable, and understandable illustrations. The book is not aimed at artists, but at anyone who wants to find a way to better memorize the material they need.
