If you can draw squares and circles, you can add figures to your sketchnotes.

People are a quick and easy way to add variety, interest, and information to your notes. Drawing the posture and facial expression of your presenter, or their reaction to the quarterly results they're presenting, or even your reaction or feeling about the information you're listening to.

Maybe by adding figures the makeup of a team is easier and faster to explain than a paragraph of text.

Check out the video below to learn how to draw box people. When you practice your little people, bear in mind that:

• draw them small
• keep them in-line with your text so they have context and meaning
• don't sweat the details, just get those figures drawn and move on
