Drawing every day

Are you asking yourself whether you should draw every day? I personally I would not recommend it. It’s a lot of pressure and you run the risk of burning yourself out, or worse yet, straining your wrist and injuring yourself. I think that a healthy learning process involves more than just drawing. It also involves finding inspiration, getting rest, connecting with the art community, and giving yourself time to come up with ideas. There have been periods where I drew daily for a short while, but I don’t think it’s sustainable for longer periods of time. My recommendation is to draw regularly, but not daily – you need those breaks to recover and grow.
