/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

This needs answer needs to be stickied somewhere, because advice threads always come to the exact same answer: Draw. A lot. Every day. Draw, draw, draw, then draw more.

Problems with proportions? Draw.
Problems with perspective? Draw.
Struggle to draw even just a line without hating yourself? DRAW.
Don't like your art? DRAW.
Want to see progress in your work? FUCKING. DRAW.
Lazy piece of shit that never draws anymore? DRAW.
Artist block? DRAW DRAW DRAW.

It literally doesn't matter what you fucking draw, it only matters that you are doing it. Every single day. You are not allowed to go to bed before you draw something. And when that gets easy, fill a whole page with sketches every day. Then 2 pages a day. By the time you are easily filling up 2 pages every day, that entire list above is either gone or getting gone.


Fatties will never get skinny without exercise, buildings will never stand without laying down bricks, and if you can't be bothered to do the one thing that is at the very core of all graphic art, then you will never do anything but suck.

You can turn it around man. I have improved so much after only 6-8 months of hard work. I went almost nowhere in 10 years, and now I am drawing/painting stuff I actually like.

Even anons on this board have told me that they like my stuff. Can you believe that shit?
