Some tips:
- Dressing comfortably for the museum visit is crucial as you will be walking around a lot. Also, wear something that you won't mind if a little sketching pencil smears on.
- When you go to the museum, don't forget to ask about free entry or discounted rates. Many museums offer free entry on certain days or hours.
- During the drawing session, remember that it's not about proving your artistic prowess but about having fun and bonding with your partner. Encourage each other and try not to take it too seriously. The goal is to have a good laugh and create a memorable portrait that captures the essence of your partner.
