Want To Improve Your Art In A Fast And Fun Way? Join A Drawing Challenge

[@marielouiseweeksb33attitud33]

Congratulations Kat. This might be my next thing to do because I’ve suddenly gone on a “go-slow” after drawing everyday. True if you’re consistent then there has to be some good pages in there even if some are awful. Loads of inspiration in your videos. Those Jackson’s sketchbooks are so good and I’ve bought every size.

Going slow is also good :D I've got the huge Jackson's sketchbook and it's a bit intimidating to work in!

They’re so inexpensive! I was so broke but wanted an giant A3 SO BAD and even after tax and shipping I got one for only like ten bucks!

I absolutely agree that art challenges are the best way to improve quickly and have done lots myself 🥰

[@sketchingtheworldwithkat]

Thanks. Which one is your favourite? I saw you are gearing up for Peachtober :D

[@LeeAngold]

Great video and tight editing. Love your bright use of colours! One suggestion - you have your camera set to autofocus while drawing, and it is zooming in/out in the same shot as your hand moves around. If you manual focus/lock focus on your paper it'll stop that distracting in/out zoom

Thanks

Where to find these challenges?

[@sketchingtheworldwithkat]

I've listed a few in my description. Otherwise I usually find them via instagram, when someone posts that they are going to take part or even once they start posting work.

Congratulations Kat for completing the 3 materials challenge 🎉 so many great drawings! 🤩 I love to follow the # of this challenge and meet new artists but I realise that this challenge didn't suit me, I tried it for the second year and it doesn't work 😅 and that's OK, there much more challenges out there I can go for!

[@sketchingtheworldwithkat]

I'm exactly like that with folktale week. I love the work other people do but it just doesn't work for me.

[@jaimeo2312]

Well done on completing the challenge! Your sketches are great! Loved this video ❤ I think I'm going to do an October challenge, maybe Peachtober.

[@sketchingtheworldwithkat]

Oh Peachtober is a good one. I feel like it doesn't really suit my art style but it does seem to have a very supportive community around it.

​@sketchingtheworldwithkat I like how open ended her prompts are. You can take them in lots of different directions
