Sketch Quotes
Where every finished idea begins.
This set covers sketch in two senses - the comedy-writing kind, rewritten around a table until the jokes land, and the drawing kind, the pencil outline a dress or a film starts from before anything is fixed. Both share a respect for the rough first pass, a theme also found in our Creativity collection.

I worked with the Groundlings, doing sketch comedy and improv at a theater here in L.A. It was my hobby, but I took classes and stayed passionate about it because it's what I wanted to do. It just fit. It takes a while before you can actually make money at it. I worked for years.
