skeetti

Skeetti is a slang term that has emerged in online communities to describe a whimsical or whimsical-style sketch or drawing that is intentionally rough, playful, or unprofessional. The word is a fusion of “sketch” and a playful suffix, and it entered popular usage around 2018 on platforms such as TikTok and Reddit. Skeetties are often created quickly with minimal detail, using basic tools such as a pen or a pixel art program, and are meant for instant sharing rather than for high‑quality artwork.

The primary contexts in which skeetti is used involve casual digital art, meme creation, or collaborative drawing challenges. For instance, on an Instagram prompt where followers share their quickest doodles, users may tag their submissions “#skeetti” to indicate the piece is a lighthearted attempt. The term also appears in video game modding circles, where designers refer to simple placeholder graphics as skeetties before creating final assets.

While skeetti has no formal definition in art dictionaries, dictionaries of internet slang sometimes list it as a noun meaning “a fast, rough sketch.” It is generally considered informal and occasionally affectionate; the term can convey a sense of creative freedom and low pressure. Skeetti has no universal accepted style guidelines, but artists often use thick lines, exaggerated proportions, or bright primary colours to achieve the playful aesthetic that the word implies.

Because it functions primarily as an in‑community label, skeetti is rarely found in formal educational or professional contexts, but it has been referenced in several blog posts about modern digital art practices. Its continued relevance depends largely on internet culture trends and the popularity of quick doodle challenges.
