Now fuck off to

1. Draw still life and simple shapes to train your muscles and gain steady hand and control
2. Learn perspective, draw a lot of simple things in perspective
3. Learn human proportions
4. Draw many different things from references

what have you tried

Observation and lots of practice

critical analysis of your own work is essential. always ask yourself "why does this drawing i did not look as good as a Jim Lee drawing" (what ever good artist you want is fine)
Thats what I try and do. How do i get there? what do i like? what is the diffrence between what i make and what i like

Faggot you already listed the shit you need to do. Just draw and be critical of your own work while pushing yourself to correct the things you got wrong. Drawing is like tuning an instrument, you start with big broad sweeps to get into the right range, then playing with tiny little tweaks and turns here and there to perfect it.

start by saying artist and not drawer

Just draw lmao

get some clay and mould a corgi. I swear I'm not fucking with you, making a shape in 3D gives you a better understanding of what it looks like. They're very weird dogs when you look too close, very wide heads with a distinct divot in the middle.

Or failing that make a statuette you would be willing to fuck

Also the reason you're unable to >just draw is because you're a perfectionist and cannot relax. Try drawing with friends or getting (SLIGHTLY) drunk

Copy all the art that you like

this
it might not work for most people but it worked for me
I like studying art that I want to create one day more than studying bowls of fruit since I'm not going to be drawing bowls of fruit forever
what I could learn by drawing fruit could also be learned by drawing what I want to draw

Lol

Trace things until you can draw them without tracing

>drawer
become wood and get a carpenter friend.

>learn to see and draw shapes instead of symbols
>draw a lot, alternate between drawing from life and copying artists you like
>read and practice new techniques
>learn how to critically evaluate your work without wanting to kill yourself
>repeat steps 2-4 for the rest of your life

Might wanna start being a better night stand, then work your way up to drawer

And just draw lmao

The green text is unironically extremely important.

However.

Most important is actually having an idea of what you want to draw. This is why I generally tell people to avoid reference. I honestly find tracing less of a problem since you can focus on lines and lighting and general anatomy.

Reference can and will make it so you can't see poses in your head, so you can't create composition without a wall of reference. Some of this, like different types of learners (audio vs visual) is entirely personal and you may find the opposite helps but essentially you need to find the process that allows for you to see what you'd like to draw before you do so.

Otherwise you'll never do more than doodling no matter how technically skilled you get. Focus and intent will gain you much more fruitful results than working and practicing with simple shapes.

So clearly you just dont like the answers you're getting

Uh, ironically you need to use more reference so you can use less reference. You need to build up your visual library and you do that by looking at references and continuing to draw.

The main problem I see when beginners use references is they use it wholesale. They could use that reference as a starting point and then try to break it down and rotate it in their mind.

Looks like something my hippie primary school teacher would have us all copy from some old French drawing.

>ironically you need to use more reference so you can use less reference.
Not at all.

You simply need to live and leave your house. What you're saying is that reference helped you do what you couldn't do otherwise, which is picture the object before drawing it.

I don't hate reference and in the end we agree that it's an overuse of that can be bad more than just using reference but I think the technical practice and muscle memory it affords and assists with is much better and focally gained with tracing.

I think most important, beside the route taken, is the result should be an ability to draw in an empty room with white walls and a light.

is right, Start with perspective, learn about vanishing points, eye level and line distortion

Study photos of brick walls at different heights and angles , you will eventually see

>Study photos of brick walls at different heights and angles , you will eventually see
Wow. How have I never heard this. Gonna tell people to do this more. Really good trick, wish I'd heard it earlier on.

your post is a contradiction.

Seriously fuck books on drawing. Fuck anyone who suggests or defends one.
Then just draw lmao ***BUT*** take the STEM approach to every drawing, take the concept of drawing apart and structure it.

Also, remember in photos that camera level = eye level

Regarding success: There is no idiot-proof way unless you become very competent at drawing odd fetishes with furries. But even then there is a lot of competition. Your only shot at success is if you're better than others in terms of quality or speed. And you have to be consistent in both. If you are absolutely devoid of any talent and can't draw a straight line in your mid-twenties your only option is DC:
