I have been keeping a sketch book for a number of years now. I mainly use it while waiting in the car while on the school run.
A lot of the time the drawings are not particularly successful but the daily practice is invaluable as it forces you to think about how objects relate to each other and also how to commit as much information as you can to the paper in as short a time as possible.
Here are a small selection of drawings from my sketch books.
