- In answering another question from my broadcast channel on Instagram, I go over two different kinds of daily drawing exercises- one to improve creativity/style, and one to improve technical skills.

“Focus less on finished work” i need someone to hypnotize me and rewire my brain this way.
Hahaha, yeah it's hard to get out of the headspace of developing ever my piece as far as it'll go. Just think of daily sketching as "getting your reps in"
Gotta keep your ego in check.
And I am the opposite lol
I literally took a screen shot just to remember lol
Love the 100 small drawings exercise, you will get a lot of exp doing that very quickly
Absolutely. Glad you like it
I really needed that last comment. Been stuck on sketching because I want to draw something everyday, but I'm at a point where in order to keep improving I need to challenge myself with longer projects.
You got this!
I’ve just recently been joking that i draw every day, started filling sketch books , and i never make art. I’m having a blast fill it the books and it’s getting easier with perspective and directions. I’m not ready. Thanks. (Getting there)lol
You can do it!
very concise and calming video. thank you so much
You're so welcome!
Such impeccable, divine timing. I had an intuitive thought come to me about sketching and I came to the conclusion to create 1 piece a month. But, to work towards that piece with practice. You just gave me the perfect idea on how to get there. Thanks a lot for the insight!
You're very welcome! That's awesome
Great advice! I know I need to focus more on sketching than trying to do finished artwork all the time. It is quite easy to get stuck on one subject matter. So I think trying new things might be the way to go.
So true!
gonna start right now!
Thank you for making this video! I’m so glad I came across it. I’m in my apprenticeship and have recently progressed to tattooing others. As a result I feel burned out creatively; I have to create to attract more potential clients but I’m not enjoying what I draw at all. Your perspective is something I needed to hear. Thank you.
You are so welcome! Absolutely
This was just what I needed! Thank you!
So glad!
I really loved your advice David, the way you said how each type of drawing exercise has a different purpose and each one suits best on different moments of your artistic development made so much sense for me! Thank you for de video it helped me a lot :)

I'm a digital/traditional artist so I could use this advice!
Glad it was helpful!
Best advice ive got compared to the 100s of videos ive watched 😂
Glad it was helpful
Thanks for the tips. These are good advices but I’ll also advise not to just sketch too much. I often do that, so often times I don’t really do full finished multiple hours artwork.
Spend about some hours sketching and then draw based on what has been learned sketching
I got into that at the end of the video. One hits a point where the sketching stage has sort of run its course; and you can sense it's time again to focus more on finished work.
How do you know when a sketch is done vs turning it into a finished piece?
I think that depends on the artist, to be honest. You determine what is drawn and what is done.
It's an individual thing for sure, but I would say first to focus on quantity of sketches for a while (like maybe focus on filling a whole page with rough sketches before developing any of them beyond that stage)
Occasionally one sketch will especially speak to you over the others, and that's a good indicator to turn that into a finished piece.
Get better by looking and practice drawing a master artist work they know what they are doing and probably have drawn eveything you have and more (not literally) itll make you better as you have new reference. Your an artist and only so original tbh even though you are creative.
Replicating masters is another great exercise.
good video
Thanks
I was a professional tattoo artist also. I left the industry many years ago but school ( college / graphic design) could never teach me what tattooing did in terms or sketching and drawing.
Street shop tattooing can be like bootcamp for drawing abilities, for sure. That was my experience
A charcoal artist said the same thing. Keep drawing make more
A pencil artist told us at a workshop that everyone has to make thousands of bad drawings before you can make good drawings, so it's best to do the work and get the bad ones out of the way quickly.
@@davidbruehl my bad drawings, they are just so bad. And always similar pose
I think I may have to try doing some longer/more developed drawings, but I have this stupid fear that it's not going to work and I end up "wasting" time 😐
There's a book called "Art and Fear" that you might find helpful. 🩵
