I need drawing lessons.

Youtube is a great free resource 

Andrew Loomis has a great series of books on drawing if you wanna spend a few bucks

You can skip all that and head straight for the Faustian bargain for immediate results 

Your call

Hm, another drawing thread....

Well I wish I had taken lessons, but I've always been egotistical and decided my raw talent would be enough....Then I quit after going to college and seeing what was possible VS what i was capable of just destroying a rather small population of artists in my terrible high school.

I decided to give my daughter a better foundation and luckily she doesn't seem to possess her mother's or my terrible egos.  She's willing to learn.

Humility seems to be in your favor though....Just by saying you need better confidence in your skill opens many more doors rather than never opening them because "ain't shit in there that can help me"

Might check out YouTube. Worth a shot.

Another one. Yeah I'm my own worst critic. I'm not terribly bad at it. It's just not where I want to be.

Tsar made a thread about a MAD magazine illustrator dying, and right after that, I saw this....Out of context, there is no way you'd know what I was talking about but I wasn't thinking.

I put two and two together. Yeah that's sad to hear.

No, I looked at picture of piglet. Drew it to the best of my abilities. Then drew Hank's face with the same method in mind. As long as I can see it I can usually draw it. Although more complex works tend to be out of my skill range atm.

I’m not that great of an artist either....but I think it has a lot to do with if you take pride in it....I’m proud of what I can do...and the longer I do it, the better I get...

 

I have an art dump in another subgroup....I mean if you haven’t seen it..
 

it’s in the member share space under “still mes art dump”....

I tried to post the url but it wouldn’t let me...weird
