the secret to improving your art, pt. II

draw. Every - oh wait, we've been through that. Anyway, how do you draw every day?

 

Two things. First, form a habit of drawing. It should not be a 'chore' or burden, but something you just do. Whether you're inspired or not. Whether you have a cool idea, or none at all. It's just a thing you do. Like brushing your teeth every day (hopefully)

 

Second, find a time slot to devote to drawing. I mostly draw while commuting to and from university. 20-minute subway rides are great for that. And while I only work with limited supplies and time (every tried using watercolours on the subway? not going to happen), it has helped me a lot. Plus, I can still draw more at home if I want to.

Other than that, having a sketchbook to carry around with you everywhere you go can be immensely helpful. Setting the goal to fill a page a day as well. but if it's a day where all you can do is scribble something onto the corner of some scrap paper, that's fine too - after all, you did draw something today, didn't you? :)
