"Learn To Draw With Friends" Art Contest by @tonyr has introduced a new segment called "The Daily Sketch!".
This segment requires participants to submit a drawing completed under 20 minutes on a particular theme specified by @tonyr on a daily basis.
The link to "The Daily Sketch!" is shown below:
As @tonyr has mentioned in his post, a very useful way to improve your drawing skills is to practice frequently,
and you would be amazed as to what you can actually draw in 20 minutes. So do give it a try.
Today's theme is 'Animals'
I searched around for some animal images and picked an animal that I would like to draw, and below is my attempt.
I timed myself to ensure that I spend less than 20 minutes to complete this quick sketch. Hope that it came out okay.
You will notice some letters on the ground?
Can you figure out what the word(s) is?
As there is a time limit, I have only taken a few process pictures.
To start off, I began a rough outline of the drawing.
And then some quick shading
And this is it:

Thanks @greenrun for your kind words! There are still a lot of things that I need to learn and areas that I can improve on. If you are interested in drawing you should consider participating in the challenge. Look forward to your post. Have a great day!
Thanks @apprentice001. I thought the daily sketch was a flop since no-one entrred and was going to just forget about it since there wasnt any interest but thanks to your resteem i now have three entries.:) i will post another today with a new theme. Hou did a fantastic job for 20 minutes mate. Im going to post another ltdwf post later today as well to try to grt more participation. Only two entries so far tgis week. :(
Tganks again mate. Hope youre having a great day. :)
Thanks @tonyr my friend. I think it is perhaps that users were not sure when "Learn To Draw with Friends" contest were to come back again so they are participating in other contest. So maybe just give it some time and hopefully the usual participants will start noticing the contest and participate again. I am working on my 2nd entry for the ltdwf contest and plan to post it soon. Have a great day!
:) I hope so my friend. I'm working on another post for the contest now so hopefully it will get spotted and I have also posted another #dailysketch with todays theme being flowers. I really think this will help beginners improve especially, so hope it finds an audience. :) You won the first one btw so I will be sending you your 1 SBD prize soon. :)
I always enjoy your entries my friend and am very thankful for your support. I'm actually still looking for a Guest Judge next week if you would be interested? :)
Thanks my friend. It is an honour to be the first winner of your #dailysketch contest. I think it is a great initiative for new artists including myself to improve our drawings. Hope that there will be more users participating in your contest. I have just submitted my Second entry "Odin!" and hope that it can encourage more participants to join the contest.
Thanks @tonyr for considering me as a Guest Judge. However, I don't think that I have the required experience yet to judge drawings yet. It would be an honour to become a Guest Judge in one your contests sometime in the future, but I don't think I am ready for it anytime soon. For now, my plan is to participate in your art contests whenever time permits and I will let you know one day when I think I am ready to give Guest Judge a try (that obviously also depends on whether you are also considering me as a Guest Judge at that time :) ). Thanks and have a great day!
I am such a bad artist. Lemme stand back and watch the masters at work.

Got zero talent for it. But I appreciate a well drawn piece. I am like a heavily obese man who loves the track :)
20 minutes?!?! Amazing!
Thanks @djynn! Glad you like it. Means a lot coming from you. You created some amazing drawings with the ballpoint pen. Have a great day!
You're very welcome. Have a great day :)
