Look inside my Eurovision sketchbook

Eurosketchbook-smallSaturday saw the 2014 Eurovision Song contest. I drew all the way through and tweeted the results as I went along. It was exhausting!

Each song is about 2 minutes long, the camera can sometimes take 30 seconds to focus in on the singer – very frustrating. I have to choose who is the person to draw and go with it.

I suppose I take a snapshot in my mind and do the best I can. The camera doesn’t stay on the person you want for very long, and then an ice skater appears so you never get to see the drawing subject again!

It requires speed, concentration and stamina! The next song was usually starting as I was still tweeting the previous drawing.

Hope you enjoy.
