how did u teach ur self to draw ? i’ve been tryin for years and for some reason i just can’t get the hang of it

any pointers?

Hm. Okay, before I get into any advice imma provide some background:

- I've been drawing (with the intention to improve) since I was about 6, so since elementary school. Yes my memory goes back that far don't say nun 😭

- My mom studied fashion design and was always drawing around me so I had access to all her books and supplies and stuff! Fun times

- this means that I had A LOT of time on my hands to practice and get better at drawing

Alright! So! If I could pinpoint some of the things that helped me improve the most, it would be YouTube tutorials. I started off w those "how to draw manga" videos? Like I used to watch Mark Crilley DOWN I wanted to draw like that so bad.

Then eventually I started watching more tuts about actual technique (anatomy, perspective, shading) and I think that's where the improvement REALLY got started imo. I'd suggest covering the fundamentals instead of "how to draw" videos because you'd just be learning to imitate someone else's art style without understanding the reasoning behind what's being done, and I assume you want to do more than that.

Speaking of style...follow artists with a variety of styles that work in a variety of mediums! I love my pencil sketching, but I also do digital and used to paint with watercolor a lot. Sometimes knowledge from one will bleed into how you approach another medium, which is great for getting fresh new perspectives!

Art channels/artists that I watch a lot:

-Proko

-Chris Hong Art

-Victoria Gedvillas

-Marco Brucci

-Likelihood Art

Another thing: be nice to yourself! Drawing while frustrated with yourself is not fun it sucks ass do not do that! If something isn't coming out right, step back and reassess your approach, or ask for feedback from others if you have access to other artists.

Understand what your goal is for a particular drawing session. (sometimes you might be doing studies or anatomy, other days might be character art, or maybe you just wanna doodle whatever!) The older I get, the more I realize that multitasking for any art form usually makes things more frustrating. So I don't do that anymore.

And lastly...you might wanna determine what kind of artist you wanna be. I have chosen to be more of a hobby artist, so I'm not gonna be learning things as in-depth as someone who plans on working at Pixar Animation Studios. You will be more focused in your learning this way.

Anyways, that's it! Everything in between that I didn't cover you will probably figure out yourself sjfjdk but if you have any more specific questions feel free to shoot me an ask! Good luck fren 🫶🏾

“𝙿𝚛𝚊𝚌𝚝𝚒𝚌𝚎 𝚖𝚊𝚔𝚎𝚜 𝚙𝚎𝚛𝚏𝚎𝚌𝚝”

࿐ character(s): Reki Kyan

࿐ genre: sfw, soft/fluff

࿐ type: imagine/scenario

࿐ requested by: by my fren, Goose

⌦  male!reader (he/him)

⌦  mentions ; injury, light blood

⌦ ‘hmm maybe him trying to help his boyfriend learn how to skate or him having to work late at the shop but his bf stays with him for company or something?’

A/N: Goose suggested this when i asked for a request and they delivered with a new f a n d o m . so why not? i also realized i changed from third person then to second person midway,, i cannot sit still.

its late as i post this, but i dont care if this gets notes or not. its for my friend after all <3

Reki wanted to teach [y/n] how to skate. He always did before they were even dating, knowing he was slightly interested every time he doodled a design for his boards during class. Seeing the slight sparkles in his [e/c] eyes as he examined Reki’s sketches, he just knew he was interested. But just scared on trying.

The buzzing from [y/n]’s phone wasn’t stopping. It would stop for a quick moment till it resumed the vibration under his pillow. Groaning and muttering soft complaints, he lifted up his phone to squint at the name who was calling him. “..Reki..? What does he want at this time..” sighed tiredly. [y/n] answered the call still comfortable in his sheets of his bed.

“Hey! [y/n] I’m outside of your window!” Reki quickly said as soon the call started. The [h/c] haired boy blinked, sliding off his bed to walk up to his window in his room and looking down to see the obvious red-hair skater waving a hand up at him with a smile. Softly sighing, [y/n] replied “..what are you doing out at night? y’know its like.. 4:30 am... right?”

“Mhm! But its the weeeeekeeend, so I thought you were- up still-” He laughed nervously but still kept the slight smile on his face.

As you continued to stare at the red-head, you noticed his skateboard he was holding then the bag on his back. Knowing the board he made for you temporarily was in there, “..you brought it didn’t you.” [y/n] muttered into his phone. “Yep! Come practice with meeeee-”

“I- F-fine.. just.. let me get ready. You came so suddenly, you dork.” hearing the excited voice of his reply, [y/n] hung up and left to get ready.

Reki always came at the most weirdest times for practice. He was practically a wild card when it came to things like this. But he had a reason why, which was [y/n] not taking the chance to try to skate during the day or somehow slips away from the opportunity. It was the weekend also so why not?

Following behind your boyfriend as he dragged you along with his hand entwined with yours. As you just stared at him, he blinked and looked over at you with his bright ass smiling. Eyes widening you looked away with a pout n mutter, flush decorated your face. Hearing the soft laugh from the red-head before the compliment, “You’re really cute when you get flustered y/n!”

“I- Shut up Reki!”

He continued to laugh as he went on. It usually was like this. Always teasing you with such words and compliments that you weren’t used too. But you won’t admit that you like it, maybe one day you will. It made you have that natural fuzzy feeling in your stomach, making your body react with its slightly rising temperature. Effectively making the burning color appear on your face.

After reaching the normal destination of a small skate area, you both practiced... which was mainly just you. With Reki teaching you the basics and watching you go at it a couple of times. Gradually getting better if it was slightly off but nonetheless he cheered and continued to aid you. Hands occasionally fixing your posture and position, noticing both of each others faces with the slight blush.

A couple more tries of attempting an ollie made you scuff up your palms. Before the recent one you just did was slightly closer to a decent one, you had fallen onto your face hearing the call of your name from Reki in the distance. Groggily pushing yourself up and grumbling in pain, hearing the nearing steps of your boyfriend halt to your side you gazed up at him with a silly smile.

“..almost had it” you laughed as you scratched the back of your head, before feeling something cold run down from your nose you wiped it with the back of your hand. Looking at what it was, you blinked almost freezing at the sight of the crimson smeared. “Ah-”

“All you have to say was ‘ah’ y/n?? You know your face is a little scratched up and your nose was bleeding!” Reki exclaimed, “..even your hands are scratched up too-” he went on, grabbing your wrist towards him to tend to the open scratches. Already finished with treating your face and nose. Poking at the more open and slightly bleeding ones with alcohol you flinched a let out soft whines of ‘owes’ and ‘ouches’

“Stay still won’t you?”

“It huuuurrrttssss..” you whined again.

“I know it does- now let me bandaged them up”

“T-thats tight!! Babe-” you complained almost pulling your hand away from Reki’s grasp. Before he grabbed your wrist tighter to hold you in place, “It has to be a little tight so it heals correctly” he replied as he wrapped some bandages over your palm and fingers efficiently, “it doesn’t hurt that bad either-”

Staring intently at the bandages wrapped over your hands, you softly muttered something inaudible. Making your red-head boyfriend to glance over at you, humming curiously at you. “You didn’t give it a lil’kith.” slightly pouting as you gazed up at Reki, before the soft motion of him grabbing your hand to softly peck the back of it then pecking you on the cheek. Feeling the soft smiling as he did. Sitting back to stare at you, noticing the deep blush on spread on your face before you softly punched his shoulder quickly hiding your face with your arms.

“I-.. I- was just k-kidding..!!”

But Reki did nothing but softly laugh at your reaction, hearing the common teases that made you more flustered. Although, there was a fair amount of flush across his own face too.
