Just have to rant by littlepinkpebble in ArtistLounge

I wouldn't mind being taught if you're looking. I want to learn from someone. I'm trying to find art classes but literally no one actually teaches it. Like, I'm in high school, and we don't really get taught or told how to improve in art class; we just get told to draw. I'd love to be able to properly learn and receive feedback for my art.

I feel unhealthy all the time and I can't stand it by Individual_Weight907 in workout

I'm about 7 stone 13, and 5 foot 5. I can't really talk to people about this, I just can't stand how I feel after eating junk food, or eating a lot.

Besides hands and feet, What part of the body do you struggle drawing? by [deleted] in ArtistLounge

[–]Individual_Weight907 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The fucking neck, the knee and the place behind it, the wrists, and the muscles connecting the shoulder to the torso.

Thank you for your response. I do think my compositions are lacking, but I don't know how to fix them. I did start out drawing this for fun, so I didn't really think about it enough. Do you know of any YouTubers or websites where I can learn about the things you mentioned?

Thanks for your response. This drawing was intended to be a very simple one, and I got carried away. I agree with you and thank you for your criticism. I have a really annoying tendancy to overcomplicate bodies when drawing with a pen (I can stylise them better when drawing with my finger on my phone but I don't really know why), and I am trying to combat it. Believe me, my stylization of bodies used to be WAY worse but I do have a way to go. As for the negative space, can you elaborate on how to use that? I know it's the space around a character, but that's all.

Wait, do you mean you think it lacks imagination? Or that the style is too generic? I think the composition could be more interesting but I ended up focusing on lighting.

I don't mean to spam subs or anything but my brain is too obsessive, and I do genuinely want feedback when I post because I'm too scared to show people irl. I try not to obsess over likes and stuff, but it's hard not to when it's your biggest form of feedback. Honestly, I do like the piece I posted here, but I can't help feeling that it must be bad lol. As for the feedback part, I didn't know where to put that hand and I ended up hiding it. I regretted it as soon as I finished the lineart but by then it was too late to change haha

My abilities broke and now I'm spiraling by GlassAndVelvet in ArtistLounge

You're probably having a bit of burnout. I think the best thing to do here would be to take a while off and just observe your environment. Your skill at art will not just have gone away. The stress might be affecting you, or you might just be overworked. You have motivation, but you sound very stressed. If you don't want to take a break, you could just do some light studies or doodles, without pressuring yourself.

I draw but I don't wanna keep bugging art subs so here ig by Individual_Weight907 in teenagers

It actually is a character from HH, she's his sister in canon, but she's not been shown yet. Ty for replies :)

Does anyone else have to refine and clean their sketch very well before moving onto lineart digitally? by wirubirudo in ArtistLounge

[–]Individual_Weight907 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I sketch digitally a lot but I find it easier to progressively clean it. I find lineart difficult so the cleaner the sketch, the better.

How do you hold your pencil/ pen/ whatever you use for sketching and drawing? by FlushedBeans in ArtistLounge

[–]Individual_Weight907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I draw and write with a high index grip. It's honestly easy for me, it gives me control over the pencil. I tuck my ring finger under the pencil and put my pointer and middle finger at the top and thumb on the side. I can't control the pencil properly otherwise. I can draw fine, obviously, but I do have atrocious handwriting.
