Reportage Illustration (Ongoing)

  • Katie Idle

I have an unfortunate habit of people-watching, and consequently many unsuspecting victims find their way into my sketchbook. My illustrations and stories feed off the everyday and mundane, and I find Reportage an indulgent break to keep me going between projects. I am constantly observational-sketching (my parents really hoped I was past the phase of bringing the sketchbook out at dinner), and my predominant skill is that I can capture a likeness within moments. Each small sketch takes, at most, around a couple of minutes.
