My Super Sketch Tips

I love doing sketching and I've been doing it a lot recently. Maybe the occasional butterfly or strawberry OR flower. So, I've got plenty of tips for those who enjoy sketching, like me! I personally think that sketches are what matters most when it comes to good art.

-Use pencils in multiple softness or use writing pencils. You should have a sharpener handy at all times. Don't waste the page - doodle more, sketch more. It's easy!

-Draw the frame and proportions first. On a corner of the paper, write all of the details you plan to add. For example, if you're drawing a strawberry, draw the frame, course!

-Add shading second-last. Remember, before shading, erase the frame, leaving the original shape behind. Add the intricate details last. If you're drawing something like a feather, which has no details, draw it without frame.

-Use references. I find that references help me a heap during sketching. You don't need to copy the picture exactly, just look at the proportions and do it!


I hope you benifited from these tips!
