Basically every artist I know (including myself) bemoans that they need to practice drawing backgrounds, but then never DOES it… so I’m setting aside a week to do just that! Background Blitz Week will run from March 25th to March 31st, 2018 and has the following goals:
draw to completion at least one environment a day
learn how to ration time and figure out what you can realistically accomplish in a single day’s drawing
learn what you like and dislike about environment drawing– savor the good bits, and learn how to speed up the parts you hate so you spend less time doing them
If you’re into daily themes, here’s a good starter list:
wilderness
garden
urban
room
market
roadways
restaurant
But if you have environments for a specific world or story you want to work on then feel free to make your own specialized list, like I’ll be doing. Tag your work with #BackgroundBlitz if you’d like to share with everyone else!
