I dont think its possible to learn INT topic like drawing people from imagination without at the same time memorizing basic anatomy proportions and stuff

Your apple from imagination is surprisingly good. Btw you shade by repeatedly hitting paper with your pencil. You simply hit the dark areas more often than the brighter areas. Keep going

You are getting mixed signals because there isnt one definitive way how to master such subjective craft as art is. But the logical and common advice is to first learn fundies like observation, line confidence and perspective. I recc book Keys to Drawing. It teaches all fundies plus more. It doesnt matter what subject you want to draw, you need observation for ALL of them. Construction is INT discipline aka when you mastered drawing what you see and want to draw from imagination.

I have already heard that all ones need to get gud is simply drawing from real life OR copying master works. Obviously i cannot vouch for such method to be the most efficient but multiple people told me thats all you need.

The darkness of the room doesnt match the girl. Even if you are wearing 100% white shirt, it will still be very gray in dark room. Be more bold with your values! And she is a bit flat. The shadows on her torso, legs and arms arent profound enough. Btw its very soulful!

i heavily recommend you to first learn how to draw in grayscale before you will try to tackle colors.
