About Sketch a Day: prompts & tips
Get daily inspiration and get your creativity flowing with Sketch a Day! Perfect for New Year's Resolutions for people who want to learn something new.
The idea is simple: every day, we set a new subject for everyone to draw. You do your sketch or drawing, take a photo, and upload it for that day for everyone to see.
You can sketch, draw, paint, use digital art apps. Whatever you like that gets you into the habit of drawing every day.
Submit as many as you like, and see your progress over time.
Lots of people are using Sketch a Day as a great way to start a positive habit. I have had many messages of support about the effect it has had on people's mental health, wellness, and mindfulness. Sketching is a great habit to get into, even if like so many people, you think you "can't draw". It's a very peaceful, quiet, and creative pastime, and receiving the help and support of others is a great way to feel good about yourself.
Sketch a Day is a wonderful, positive community with people from all over the world coming together to draw a common theme.
** Sketch a Day is growing fast **
There are over 200,000 artists in the community now. It's just growing faster and faster all the time!
If you want to learn, want to get back into drawing, or just want a quick practice or warm-up, then Sketch a Day could be perfect for you. For beginners, we have tips and tutorials each day. For the experts, you can post your images and show your skills to the world.
So...go sharpen your pencils!

• You can also add your Instagram account name so people can follow you on Instagram quickly and easily.
• When you've done a drawing, you can share it on Facebook straight from the app.
People draw in all kinds of mediums, from digital art, watercolours, pencils, acrylics, pastels and lots of pens, markers and inks.

I would like to use this space to say thank you to all the people who have messaged me to tell me how Sketch a Day has made their lives better. Drawing every day really seems to have a hugely positive effect on people's lives.
