GRAFIT STUDIO
SKETCH-A-THON
Join the Sketch-a-thon and push your sketching skills to a new level!

From September 1 to 30, we'll be sharing daily videos featuring photo references with timers, segmented into various poses. Utilize these videos and adhere to the timer to create a series of gesture drawings and sketches each day.


DAY 30

You've got it right: this challenge is the real deal, designed to provide you all with a solid foundation for honing your skills. Put forth maximum effort and persistence to create sketches every single day of September! Our studio's art directors and artists will also be participating in this marathon, and we'll showcase their works on both our Instagram and Discord server.


Beyond daily dedication, the main rule of the marathon is to share your artwork with the world. You can do this either on Instagram or on our Discord server.


  • If you'd like to share the results of your daily efforts on Instagram, post them on your profile, tag our account @studiografit, and include the #GrafitSketchathon hashtag. Feel free to share the sketches in your Stories or profile feed.
  • And if you prefer sharing your daily creations on our Discord server, simply hop into the dedicated channel and share them there.

We'll also feature your sketches on our Instagram profile, alongside the works of our art directors. The reference pictures will continue to be posted daily on our Instagram and Discord server.
