Sketches vs Keyboard & Mouse: The Truth

When competing for new jobs, designers often put way too much time (and worry) into preparing drawings that the client may barely look at, when all that might be needed is a "fuzzy" sketch that demonstrates you are a designer with great ideas who "gets" that there is no reason to waste time being overly-detailed at this early stage. Fuzzy sketches also have the advantage of ambiguity, as opposed to photorealistic renderings that leave nothing to the imagination, allowing the client to lean in, engage with the work, and even to project their own positive vision of the project onto the misty and persuasive ambiguity of the sketch.

ABOUT: My name is James Akers and I'm a practicing architect who also supported my family as a full-time renderer working in pencil and watercolor, up until the day that pencil and watercolor could no longer keep up with the pace of change in the modern digital office. So in 2015, I followed Tim Cook's lead, switched to Apple Pencil on iPad, and haven't looked back. Now, as UCLA professor of iPad Drawing and founder of the iPad for Architects RUclips channel, I split my time between teaching, rendering, design consulting, architect-ing, and my favorite of all: helping students rediscover the benefits of drawing-by-hand in the digital era through online courses in Procreate, Morpholio Trace and Sketchup for iPad.
