Concept sketching is a divergent thinking process. This means you let your mind run free and you come up with many and varied ideas. This requires very quick sketches to capture the basic ideas. The drawings will be small and loosely sketched. The best media for this is pencil or marker pens but any will do. The principle is to not get caught by developing and over-working one idea but to rather just plot down as many as you can. Development follows later.
Pencil and pen capture the basics here. Notice how easily basic lines capture the mood of each figure.
