Art on a Time Budget

This guide is for those who love art and drawing, but are in a different major or have a day job in a different field. I experienced the struggle of balancing art with studying while doing a full time STEM degree. But there are ways to keep growing as an artist without having to give up your sanity (or sleep hours).

The aim of this guide is to make every practice moment count, rather than counting the hours spent slaving away for little improvement.
