Check out the blog of Montreal-based artist Marc Taro Holmes: http://citizensketcher.wordpress.com/. In addition to sharing his beautiful drawings, Marc regularly posts info about the practice of art making en plein air. He’s recently published a downloadable guide to drawing people in motion that’s full of useful tips on how to capture gestures, build on initial sketches, and add dynamism with colour. If you’re not able to learn from Marc directly at one of the Urban Sketchers symposia (like the upcoming one in Old Montreal this August), be sure to take advantage of this guide: http://citizensketcher.wordpress.com/downloads/
