What You\'ll Need
You don’t need fancy tools to feel inspired just an open mind and a few essentials:
- Sketchbook or journal
- Graphite pencils or pens
- Camera or phone for snapshots
- Comfortable walking shoes
- Curiosity and patience
Step-by-Step Process
Here\'s how Anisha explored Mangalore and found beauty in unexpected places:
1. Start with Observation
Wander through local streets or sit near the sea. Pay attention to textures, people, shadows, sounds even smells.
2. Journal Freely
Don’t worry about perfect sketches. Jot quick notes, shapes, or emotional reactions. It’s about capturing the moment, not refining it.
3. Find Patterns
Look for color palettes in sarees, tile mosaics, or sunset skies. Repeating shapes in architecture or nature often hold hidden stories.
4. Reflect in Quiet Spaces
Anisha often sat by a riverside temple or on a beach rock just to soak it in. Give your mind time to process ideas bloom when you\'re still.
