HOW TO BE BETTER AT ART 


Sketching is the most important! I swear. Please don't judge artists while looking at their best full art...because you can be deceived! Don't have to believe me but you don't need super pro skills to draw something good. You just need some knowledge how to cut the corner to do such things. For example artists who don't know anatomy at all but you can't see any failed details on their works because they use a lot of references etc then... BUT When they already upload doodles/ fast drawings you're extremely shocked 'what the hell happened to his abilities!!?'
So please sketch a lot and practice FOR REAL.

Wanna be damn professional and improve quickly?
PRACTICE E V E R Y   D A Y !
I know some people who like art but it's only next hobby for them. They draw/paint better pieces about two/three times per month and sketch only when they're seriously bored. It's ok! But if you want to be really good soon you HAVE TO work harder for it! Nothing in this world for free, sorry.
Make art your passion! Draw daily if you can. Even just scribble! If you really love art I'm sure it's not a trouble for you.

DON'T COPY OTHER ARTISTS STYLE!

JUST  D O N 'T  DO IT. 

Just stop. And don't do it for them, do it...for yourself!
You don't have any idea how much you lose if you build your line in this way.
Good artist should be easily recognizable and create something different, something you can't just see everywhere. People should look at his work and instantly identify who drew it.
What happens if you copy from others:

>Originality decreases
>At some point you realize you don't know how it looks when you really draw
>You can't draw anything from heart
>You can't identify yourself at this point
>You don't learn anatomy, colors, shading, perspective etc well. You can improve it only by copying from REAL and listening to yourself.
>You stick to schemes! And in my opinion you shouldn't let anything limit you! It's deprived of emotions! Also you will be more and more afraid of experimenting with art and it's one of the worst things.  It slows down progress and makes you draw for others, not for yourself.

And much more.
Don't mess up 'copying' with 'taking inspirations'
You should copy only from real. It doesn't mean your style must be realistic lol.



Think about it.





Real should be your base, not your style <- do you see now?


Don't be scared of doing something new!

Draw how you feel, ignore system ('ok, sketch, lineart, now colors with brush I always use and shading I always do(...)' )

You can't improve without any changes.

And experimenting will teach you a lot.

 I know people often are afraid of it but just do it lol. Nothing bad will happened, I promise, really! Even if you failed. Uh. So what? Nothing frightening.
Don't do only things you're good at!
You can be better at something and make more mistakes at something different but never forget to practice everything! G o   e x p e r i m e n t  with new stuff  !

To kill art block draw something different/ in different style.
Don't look at others! Stop carrying of their tastes! (next thing that limits you!) Draw for yourself! It's nothing if they don't like your art, you should like and this is enough! It's hard nowadays when kitsch is everywhere but don't give up, fight against it!
Or change site/place... Look for people who think similarly and care of real art.


STOP USING REFERENCES AND TUTORIALS 'HOW DO DRAW X' etc !!!

Can destroy your own style or teach you wrong!
Use verified sources! - REAL LIFE

You can argue, but I know what I'm talking about, srsly.

For people who draw in realistic style:

Draw what you see, not what you think that should be.

<- My friend told me so and it helps me a lot.

thank you and sorry 4 all mistakes //hides
