I've been drawing since I was first able to use a pencil.
As a teen I got really into drawing graffiti and abstract type art. You can see one example above.
Lately I've been trying to practice faces to achieve a certain style.
I mostly post to my Instagram:

The greatest tip I can give is to study, study, study! Study real life, study other artists work, just try to emulate whatever you see on the paper. Develop the way of looking at something that allows you to make out all the shapes, forms, and values of whatever you're looking at, and recreate them on paper. Don't draw what you imagine something looks like, pay attention to that thing and try as best as you can to draw what it exactly looks like.

Whoa, you have a really nice page of art! My studying skills are lacking, but guess I gotta perk them up if I wanna get gud

Word, thanks. All it takes is passion and discipline. Anyone who can write can learn to draw well.

Emulation isn’t really the way to go.

Edited by DemonicChronic: 7/12/2019 5:13:24 PMLearning the fundamentals of art is the absolute key to drawing/painting at a higher skill level, and studying things to draw them as they appear is one of the fastest ways to learn the fundamentals.
