do a combination of both life drawings and your own shit
ive found it helps both progress together a lot more neatly

no offense but i really don't think that's how your head works.

@ kian i think you should drop this mindset that your brain will do all the working for you...because that's what a lot of your pleads seem to turn into. sorry i don't have any drawing advice, IMO artistic expression isn't just about being unique.

i honestly dont think originality is something that can be lost, and i definitely think that improving your art skills will just make it easier to execute your unique ideas. if you stay within your comfort zone you will never get better.

i remember you said that none of your art ever came out looking how you wanted it to look unless it was by accident. When you improve your skills you find that it gets easier to place the image in your head onto paper
