Art Journal : Sketching in March
Hello Everyone,
Welcome to my Art Journal update for March. I can't believe it has been a month since my last update, but I have been busy sketching regularly. It has been fun and also I hope to get some improvement over time.
The last month I have not been sketching every day as I had initially planned, but instead, I have still been sketching regularly every few days and each time sketching for longer as I get in a rhythm.
I try to use the techniques that the book has taught me which is coming in helpful.
Still lots of work ahead, especially with drawing faces, hair and generally people! lol
I imagined this was my wife if she had got hold of my credit card.
Here was my first side on portrait. It is taking some time to figure out the correct dimensions and understand perspectives, but it is fun learning.
I am still going through my other book drawing basic objects. This can get a little boring, so it is good to mix it up a little.
Still the exercises are good and help to improve sketching.
Of course I found another book that I like. We bought this one as a gift for someone and I think it could be something good for me too. I would quite like to try some manga style drawing.
My plan for the next month is to continue regularly drawing and try out the new book too. In the evenings, the light is not so good in the day, so I am thinking I need to use my desklamp to see better.
I am also looking for a tablet/pen combo, so that I can start to digitalise some of my work and start using it.
Thats it for this month, thanks for reading/looking.

Maybe you would like to check out the post about Hive Engine tipping tokens to keep yourself updated about the latest tip tokens on Hive. 🤓 The Visual Shots Coin which is also a tip token needs to be added on that list though. 😅 !CTP
Thats a good overview, I just noticed in the last few months many new ones not listed there like !PIMP !DIY !WEED and more.
Dafuq @mypathtofire, you gotta stake more PIMP Tokens!
You need Stake at least 1000.000 PIMP power.
(We will not send this error message for 24 hours).
Read about some PIMP Shit or Look for the PIMP District
The PIMP token tipping command is already listed on that post, but the DIY and WEED commands sure need to be added there. 😎 Thanks for the information about the new tipping tokens. 😅
Have some !PIZZA with !LOLZ for today! 😁
I can't see the mechanics of how the !DIY command is processed by the DIY bot for tipping, apart from comments from the @diybot on #Ecency Advanced Search saying that the number of times the DIY token can be tipped per day is dependent on the tipper's balance. 😅

When I started practicing drawing, I wasn't sketching everyday but along the line, I made a prerequisite to do so and started seeing some tremendous growth. I believe constant practice is good when on has the time.
Your skills are good. I love the way you made that lady's curvy even though it wasn't that much in the reference image.
How about focusing on drawing a portrait this time? Let's see how it goes.
Thanks and also for the tips, that makes sense that do some drawing each day should make some good progress.
I will have a look at what portraits I could do. I have ordered some Anime style books, so I wonder if I might find a style that I enjoy. 😊
Yeah, just like the saying goes, practice makes perfect.
Oh that would be nice. You can start by drawing your self - self portrait😊
haha, thats a good idea! cheers!
Oh yeah!
Have a great Sunday, buddy👍
Thanks you too! 😊
