Sketch-noting is notes-taking with visual thinking for multiple cognitive benefits such as better comprehension, improvement in long term memory and effective communication by presenting sketch notes. If practiced seriously, sketchnoting can enhance cogition and creativity both
Once one becomes apt in sketchnoting skills, one is able to create sketchnote on every activity such as presenting summaries of research work, conference proceedings, training sessions, classroom sessions, travel stories, jotting down quickly random thoughts or ideas as they strike the mind.
I tried my hand on converting sketchnoting into 'random artwork' by taking the following steps.
1. Drawing minimal drawing of an event or occasion ot visual symbol of a concept
2. Drawing double random lines to full the space
3. Writing keywords and key phrases or ideas about the concept legibly between the lines
4. Digitizing the sketchnote by taking a scanned picture
5. subjecting the picture to Picasa photo editing tool for colouring
