there are some people who insist that you have to have a very solid foundation in the start of a drawing but i think whatever comes most naturally to you is the most helpful
a drawing is a collection of lines placed at your discretion that is finished at whatever point you decide for it to be finished, so even one line on a page is a drawing
the compliment to just one line being a finished drawing is the idea that any drawing is never finished because there is an infinite amount of reworking or adding that could happen to any given piece
sketching is somewhere within those realities, and it can be as thorough and meticulous or as bare bones as you like it to be
for me sketching is functional in design scenarios like this one, and its function is to establish an energy, pose, and character for me to follow later down the line
it will evolve and be reworked from one line to many lines until i see a nice development of 3D-appearing forms, and transition to lineart the second i think about adding another level of detail (the finished sketch is around level 3 detail for me)

its always very interesting to see others approach to sketching! lots of unique approaches to learn from

Wonderful philosophy, seems like a great approach to get past that initial sketch anxiety
