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!
