1. get a loomis book (or any book thats not too advanced at first, like bridgman books)
2. draw EVERY SINGLE PICTURE/DIAGRAM/etc. in the book at least once
3. come back later on and post/analyze results

learning some sentences of a foreign language without knowledge of vocabulary and grammar.

the moment you have to form your own sentence within a true context you are lost.

this is the reason why some people steal fragments of artwork. once they need to truly create they are lost.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 25 18:13:14 2017 No.3151470 >>3151440 guess i meant to say not too detailed like starting off by doing this with the diagrams from Artistic Anatomy... could take you longer doing it with loomis could be better at first, cause he has a lot of less detailed diagrams
