Thanks for the bump, you basic bitch.

Only way to learn is to draw from imagination faggot. If you are drawing people use basic forms for construction.

Oh my fucking god

hey anon, I know the super secret to get better at drawing in just 10 minutes. But im not telling :)

lazy ass frog, looking for an easy way out. just quit now NGMI faggot

Come back after you have done at least 1,000 gesture drawings. If you fail to see the connection between drawing from imagination and gesture you are beyond help.

>draw thing from memory
>fix thing using reference
>repeat until you have sufficient visual library

>>3730311
from imagination. I don't know construction or anything.

>>3730349
Wanna know the super-duper art secret? I could tell you, but I won't

>>3730311

have you tried drawing cartoons? Start with something simple

>>3730311
drawing what human, car, animal, landscape?
do you use construction drawing or just mindlessly copy stuff?

There's only one thing you need to know about it.

I can only draw from my mind, with reference I get even shittier.

I guess it's just that I've always drawn that way

Watch Proko.

The minion drawing gets you every time since he emphasized perspective in that part yet he got the face out of perspective.

Draw anything you want from imagination, don't worry about what it looks like yet but don't just mess about. Figure out whats not quite right (perspective, specific body parts etc.).
Practise that specifically.

>how the FUCK do I get better at drawing from imagination???
How the fuck is this even a problem for artists?
I only draw from imagination. Doing real life studies is boring as shit, but necessary if you want to get better at the basic, like anatomy, perspective and so on.
Just imagine something mundane, fucking anything (like a cat with a magician hat, look what I just imagine on the spot) and just draw from there, only look up refrense when needed.

I love that YT video where he draws big cats with Aaron Blaise and makes some complicated stack of boxes that end up as /beg/ tier garbage
Meanwhile Aaron Blaise just sketches in a 10/10 cat with 3 lines

You need a special affinity for it and high spatial-visual IQ
The truth is the majority of artists can only get good at copying through an entirely mechanical process, that's why ateliers still manage to produce good students
When it comes to cartooning and drawing from imagination you just need talent or you will never get good at it

INB4 LIAR LIAR EVERYONE CAN BE KJG IF THEY WORK HARD
That's why there's SO many hard-working KJGs, right?

Underrated comment. Anon knows. I dont even need to say pyw. I already kno u made it.

See these?
These are your best friends.

You need to study your subject until you can draw a realistic version (not perfect) without reference. If you fail at drawing it from imagination then you need to study some more.
