The Story Behind Fridaa.art: A Tool Built by an Artist, for Artists

Hi, I’m Eva! I’ve been an artist and illustrator for over ten years, co-founder of Studio Megalo, and a web designer at Mamout. Currently, I’m working on a comic book project starring two cats, Thalie & Freya.

In my daily routine, sketching is an essential step. Whether I’m preparing professional projects or simply keeping my line work fluid, I spend hours practicing on a wide variety of subjects.

From Falling in Love with Life Drawing to Daily Practice Constraints

It was during my art studies in Paris that I first discovered life drawing, and it was love at first sight. Practicing capturing a pose within a set time limit (30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes) forces you to let go—often, the quickest sketches carry the most dynamics and life.

However, practicing gesture drawing at home outside of live workshops quickly becomes a real hassle.

For years, I spent endless time hunting down reference photos on Pinterest or Google, building mood boards, and starting timers on my phone. I also tried YouTube videos and quick pose websites, but I constantly ran into the same limits: a lack of choice, outdated interfaces, and no precise thematic options.

The Turning Point: The Need for Customization

When I started my comic book, I needed to draw cats from every angle and in every position. Yet most online sketch generators are very generic. When working on a specific project—whether you're a professional, a student, or a hobbyist—you don’t just want "an animal" or "a human"; you want to practice the exact subject of the moment.

Fridaa.art was born out of that frustration: a tailored, simple, modern, and fun sketch session generator. The tool I always dreamed of having in my own studio.

Your New Virtual Studio

I designed Fridaa.art to be your daily practice companion. Whether you’re looking to improve at your own pace, tackle the Inktober challenge, or simply warm up before a creative workday, the platform allows you to:

  • Search exactly what you want to draw: Type what you need in the search bar, set your timer and begin session.

  • Launch Turnkey Sessions: Get inspired with pre-curated thematic playlists.

  • Free Your Gesture: Enjoy a clean, ad-free interface designed to keep you 100% focused on your brushstrokes.

I sincerely hope Fridaa.art becomes as useful to you as it is to me. Grab your sketchbook, stylus, or brushes, and enjoy your session!
