This may have been the exact moment drawing really clicked for me. After pulling this out of thin air, I started to really believe I could create.

I fully intend to learn and hone some artistic skills here on this account, however infrequently :)

it's been WAY too long since i sat down to draw (life has been busy) but i'm really keen to finish the practice piece i've been working on..

i might just lock in and silently finish it. no more "here's the tiny amount of progress i made today!" posts :((

wish me luck ~

Day Nine ❤️

Back from a long practice hiatus with a properly drawn face and the beginnings of baby's first line art 🥰

#BeginnerArtist

three days in a row of learning to draw armour hasn't left me like "grrr i'll never draw armour again" (especially since i haven't started line art lol) but i've definitely thrown myself into the deep end. the progress feels AMAZING though..

Day Eight 🤍

I only had an hour or so to draw tonight since I'm back to work first thing in the morning. Still, I'm happy with the elbow armour I've cobbled together 🥰

Day Six and Day Seven 💕

I didn't get back to drawing last night, so here's the progress I left off on (Day Six) and what I've done tonight (Day Seven)
(with the chest layer turned off)

These physically small additions took a deceptive amount of time and effort, I feel like I've learned a lot :P

ive spent three hours tonight drawing and redrawing the armour, which has been both fun and informative but makes for a very boring progress post lol

im gonna get back to it in a bit and maybe do the other shoulder piece to make it a little more interesting :)

Day Five 💗

I've started a multi-day practise project, where I'll be slowly working towards a complete Sumia portrait

There's plenty of drawing and redrawing to do yet, but I'm determined to see this VERY rough sketch turn into a presentable beginner piece. Wish me luck~

#BeginnerArtist

drawing over this felt like 9/11

genuinely found it hard to get to sleep last night because of how much i wanted to keep drawing asdfjl

Day Four ♥️

Messed around with drawing hair, and made *some* progress, but not as much as I would have liked

I used M as a reference at first but toyed with the length / presentation as to make for better practise. I definitely want to try this again soon

#BeginnerArtist

I cleaned it up before bed 😴😴😴 I go sleep now 😴😴 goonight 😴😴😴😴😴 also i thin k i made the boob bigger i forgot why

Day Three ♥️

Practised today by drawing a body with no reference, aiming for a pose that emphasised depth. For a first attempt I think I've done a fine job :)

I'll definitely want to try something like this again soon, maybe improving it can be the focus of my next session

#BeginnerArtist

im not gonna pretend this was easy or that the result is particularly good, but for a 30 minute first attempt this hand seems really solid

(no reference other than my own hands lol)

Day Two💚

Kinda ended up with a sketch sheet today, concluding with a very scrunkly looking m!Byleth... he's cute

I'm super happy with how he turned out considering the "how to draw faces" tutorial I had open was about 3/4 angle portraits, so all I could take was general tips

#BeginnerArtist

Day One❤️

Used a reference to get comfortable sketching in Krita, and took the chance to try drawing Sumiia's hair.
Marking as sensitive since I didn't draw clothes so she looks like a Barbie doll
