Draw the Eiffel Tower in a loose, sketchy, illustration style.

I'm often asked how to draw in a loose sketch, illustration style.Well I think it comes from a lot of drawing. You are allowed to sketch out a rough plan in pencil to be erased later.

Then you just have yo draw. Be confident, but don't try to "DRAW". Just get on with it.

You will probably think it is terrible as you are drawing, but just keep going. It all comes together at the end.

If you are still not happy, then you probably know how to get it right next time. After you've done twenty versions, you'll probably come to the conclusion that the first version is the best! That often happens.😆
