[Anonymous No.2753148]

What do you mean permanent? As in you can't undo it?

Because that's a good thing when it comes to practice.

[Anonymous No.2753152]

>>2753148
Not like that, but it feels like it's a finished product, which is exactly what I don't want it to feel like. I don't want to feel like if someone were to see it, they would think that I'm displaying my shit art to the world.

Getting bullied only makes you stronger. Why back in my day we'd bully other kids and in turn it made them stronger people. Now bullying is seen as something bad.

My drawings are shit, but I still practice on print paper. Got my entire room floor filled with shitty perspective exercises and doodles. Just do it, it's not a big deal.

[Anonymous No.2753441]

Just fucking draw, dippo. Stop giving a shit about what you draw so much, being precious about your studies and such is just plain stupid. If trying different paper or mediums helps and you have the cash, go for it, but don't let something entirely psychological stop you drawing.

Throw it in a binder and put the binder in a drawer or some shit.

Or as the other anon said throw it out, though I recommend keeping some.

But then I wouldn't have to be thinking about suicide everyday if someone else will do the honors; I think that's unlucky I didn't bully someone like you.

[Anonymous No.2755057]

I feel exactly the same way OP
When I draw to print paper, I instinctively use less sketch lines and erase less because every single stroke can be seen in the paper, even the lightest ones.
When I use proper drawing paper I am not afraid to erase a hundred times and do lots of unnecessary strokes.

You should be doing at least 7/10 study to application even when you're completely balls deep in studying, dude.

And I just draw from imagination for a while. Try art challenges. Participate in collabs. Take up a project. That sorta thing.

So instead of doing only studies and slow drawings trying to meticulously create monalisa on one go, I just sketch until someday monalisa will reveal herself to me.

I also work in levels of comfy unknow to man by having my curved drawing board with silk besides my mattress on the ground. I'm also posting this on a tablet while lying and hearing music under lampshade light.

That's why I don't decide what to draw, I just go " I have to make a head" and then sculpt what seems better If I get wrong. Strange method, I know, sometimes I even decide it's not a head anymore and it end up okay...

Get a big roll of wrapping paper and a charcoal/gioconda pencil, go messy. Who cares if your drawings catch on fire, it all stays in your fingertips.

My art feels would be that I started learning to draw to express my creativity and lost the creativity somewhere along the way. Now I draw because it feels slightly better than suicide.

[Anonymous No.2760998]

>>2760233

Well. It could mean that you actually did gain some experience in seeing dimensions and you've realized without knowing that your original attempts at straight on drawings have bad perspective on the facial features.

Which means you've grown. Just get the forward angles, which are actually more extreme and foreshortened that most other views.
