If you practice daily for just 30 minutes, you will see improvement in your drawing skills. <\/p>\n<p>It doesn&#8217;t matter what you draw, just as long as you&#8217;re drawing something. You can practice your observational drawing skills with just about any object that you have laying around. It&#8217;s just a matter of grabbing that sketchbook and taking a few minutes to sit down and draw.<\/p>\n<p>Even when we create a loose quick sketch, we&#8217;re practicing the same skill set required for more polished drawings. While some sketches can stand on their own as a finished works of art, most sketches are created for practice.<\/p>\n<p>In this episode of Gettin&#8217; Sketchy Live, we create a quick 30 minute drawing of a paint tube and finish the sketch with pen and ink.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the photo reference, if you want to draw along&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/thevirtualinstructor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/redtubesmall.jpg\" alt=\"Photo Reference for Drawing Exercise\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thevirtualinstructor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/redtubesmall.jpg 800w, https:\/\/thevirtualinstructor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/redtubesmall-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thevirtualinstructor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/redtubesmall-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thevirtualinstructor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/redtubesmall-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gettin&#8217; Sketchy&#8221; is now a regular event on the YouTube channel.
