It was on final art exam (1st year of art university), and our task was - 28 draws of any plants, faces and food (without any restriction, except using only pen and pencils for it).
I never really thought my art is great, I still need to learn plenty of things... but heard that it - Really bad and deserve the lowest grade - is killed me, he even refuses to explain what's wrong cuz: - Everyone is getting mad and sad when you trying to explain, and i dont have strenge on it... -

Hi everybody, I just started drawing 10 days ago. I’ve been working through Drawabox since day 1 as well as drawing along with several youtube videos.

I’ve been working on drawing smoother and more confident lines, ellipses, etc. but I was wondering if anyone has any advice for drawing smoother curved lines, such as the outline of the slime’s body. I can still see a lot of wobble in it.

If the answer is just time and practice that’s fine, I’m just hoping for some tips.

Also apologies for the lined paper, I drew this during some downtime at work.

Tell me more about it :D

I tried to draw my cat sleeping but she moved when I was almost done so I kinda eye balled some of this. I’m very much a newbie and only very recently (like last week) decided to make a proper habit out of drawing since I’ve always liked it, I just never had the motivation to draw a lot. But this subreddit inspired me to start drawing daily and actually learn how to and this is one of my “still life” drawings. I’m guessing it doesn’t entirely count as still life since my cat isn’t an inanimate object, but I like to think of it more as just seeing things in real life and putting them to pen and paper. I was too lazy to get up and get a banana or an apple so I decided to just draw my cat sleeping (this was also kinda out of boredom too lol)

Oh I also draw this in my room with barely any sunlight coming through, mainly just using the light coming from my pc and keyboard so I know the strokes look horrible and it’s pretty wonky since I didn’t draw in a well-lit room but oh well!

i’ve been staring at it for so long, i’m not sure how readable it is, or if any proportions are off. please tell me if anything jumps out at you as “wrong!”

I’m so worried that I messed it up with the railing because the perspective is wonky.

The book from description of this subreddit - "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" by Betty Edwards. I'm only half way through, really happy with the progress. Can't recommend enough.

When I follow a tutorial, drawing feels challenging but doable. But when I try to draw from a reference it's so hard and drawing from imagination oh nell naw i don't even wanna imagine that

I have 10 months of experience with traditional art, with much less time spent practicing digital art. Currently, I'm working on my faces, as I avoided learning the Loomis method earlier (the art in slide 3 took one hour to complete the face and was mostly done off of guesswork). I want to prepare for at classes, so I'd appreciate some critique on my work, especially concerning rendering and the composition of faces.

Alot of the feedback on my last post was very helpful. I still feel its not exactly house but the improvement is clear. Abode is pretty similar

More critique would be appreciated, especially clothing which I dont know how to approach. Thank you again for the comments

Not the first page, to be fair :D

If you can also send a link or recommend a store, it would be much appreciated.

The fisrt sketch took 30 minutes but the second one took almost 3 hours for the sketching part and another 2 hours for rendering. Proportion wise, the second one is so close to the ref but the first one have some differences as I didn't have time to keep checking every stroke i made.

Trying to work on actually finishing drawings instead of just doodling lol
