5 Days of Sketching: Build a Habit through Experimentation

Hey there, Artist! 👋

Do you have a sketchbook sitting on your shelf, waiting to be filled? Or maybe you want to draw daily but run out of ideas before you even start?

You're in the right place!

This 5-day challenge is designed to help you conquer the blank page, experiment with new mediums, and build a lasting sketching habit without the pressure of perfection.

We are going to play, experiment, and let loose!

What we'll sketch together:

Day 1 - Wrong Hand Challenge: We’ll start simple to break the ice and get comfortable with the page.
Day 2 - Scavenger Hunt: Learn to observe the world around you by sketching objects from your daily life.
Day 3 - Blob Art: Get your imagination started by turning random shapes (even coffee stains!) into characters.
Day 4 - The "Sticker Sheet": Create a full page of fun, random doodles using everything we've learned.
Day 5 - Story Panels: Distinct frames to experiment with composition and mini-stories.

🤔 Perfect if you're:

Intimidated by that big, white, empty page.
Looking to experiment with different supplies (pens, pencils, markers!).
Wanting to build a consistent art habit but don't have hours to spare.
Ready to embrace mistakes and focus on the process rather than the result.

Seriously, keep it simple! 👇

All you need is a sketchbook and something to draw with.

The Sketchbook: I recommend a smaller size (like A5) so we can easily fill one page a day without feeling overwhelmed.
The Tools: Grab a pencil, a pen, some markers, or mix them all up! I’ll be changing my medium throughout the class to encourage you to experiment, too.

And if you loved my "7-Day Doodle Challenge", this is the perfect next step to take your skills from doodling to full-page sketching! 🚀

Here's what you'll discover:

By the end of these 5 days, you will have filled 5 pages with unique art, but more importantly, you’ll feel at home in your sketchbook.

The goal isn't to make a masterpiece every time; it's to make sketching a natural, fun part of your day.

Ready to fill those pages?

Let's start sketching together! ✨

And as always: Keep on drawing!

Patricia 🥰
