A: You need to improve your drawing skills.
B: I will keep practising / practice.

Are "keep practising" and "keep practice" both correct?
 
... but note that American English speakers spell practice with a c – whether it's used as a noun or a verb.
 
And we often say "keep in practice" or "stay in practice."

Usually, you keep in practice if you already know how to do whatever you're practicing: "She sounds great on trombone because she keeps in practice."

If you keep practicing, you might be experienced or you might be a beginner. It depends on the context.

- Beginner: "I'll keep practicing until I can do it right every time."

- Expert: "It's a beautiful day, but I think I'll stay home and keep practicing."
