More Tips for a Consistent Sketching Practice-Don’t Try to Do It All! (at once)

Sketching on location can be overwhelming. Time pressure, lookie-loos, weather, bugs-it's hard to make decent sketches consistently (or at all)!
I'm pretty sure I’m not the only one to create a few nice sketches, and then some stinkers that basically ruin the whole sketchbook. It made me give up multiple times before I finally got consistent with my sketchbook. When you're not yet able to make a great sketch every time, how do you get yourself to practice and build those skills without getting discouraged?
Here are some ideas for how to really enjoy sketching on location right now, with the skills you have right now, and still build toward that beautiful “sketchbook as a work of art” you aspire to create someday.
