Why Timed Drawing? I want to share with you how short, focused drawing sessions revolutionized my artistic journey. After focusing on loose painting, my drawing skills got rusty. So, I started a semi-daily sketchbook practice, and the results were amazing! Here’s what I discovered:

1. I drew more by silencing my inner critic
2. My lines became more confident and accurate
3. I developed a looser, more expressive style
4. My proportions and observational skills improved dramatically
5. I could study a wide range of subjects quickly
6. My understanding of three-dimensionality improved
7. I maintained mostly consistent practice, even on hectic days
