I AM BACK WITH ANOTHER BLOG!!!! And in this blog, I’m going to share you some of the things I do to fill my sketchbook. I think that most artists find it so hard to get ideas to draw. That is why I am making this blog (obviously).
Your Surroundings
I think that drawing from your surroundings is a common thing to do. However, I think that is very good practice for your skills and at the same time, you get to experience and draw different types of things. It could be a landscape or random things and objects.
5 -minute sketches
Doing 5-minute sketches is a very fast and easy way to fill up your sketchbooks. Your sketches don’t have to be perfect and it helps you learn different shapes and techniques. By doing this, you could also improve your art.
Challenges
Last month (October), there was a challenge called Inktober. Inktober is a challenge where you are given ( or you found) a list of things that you are supposed to draw for the rest of the month. This challenge helps you come over your comfort zone and draw and learn something new. There are also other challenges such as the scribble challenge, 365 days of art challenge, or the draw this again challenge. Like Inktober, by doing these challenges, you could improve your art and step out of your comfort zone. I personally love doing the draw this again challenge. This challenge requires you to draw an old drawing that you have done years or months ago. By doing this challenge, you could see how much you improved and it really motivates me to do more artwork.
Thank you for reading and if you have more ideas, feel free to comment it down below. BAAIIII😄.
