Hello Bluesky! I'll try to make this account as generic as possible and post my work occasionally. Currently I know nothing about drawing in general but I am willing to learn.
I guess you can say that I'm #learningtodraw.

Okay, so I kinda forgot I have this account and got myself into a lot of things so I really haven't practiced much.
I'm kinda busy but still draw in my free time. I want to post weekly about whatever I'm working on, if possible.
We'll see if that happens.

Got some work to do so haven't drawn in a while. This is the proof that I'm still alive. I'm going to work on proportions one day. See you next month.

Another thing I've been doing lately is learning to observe. It kinda helps with perspective, I guess.

I skimmed through some of Andrew Loomis' books. Seems interesting; I might invest some time to read them.

I really liked this one though; might just fix the proportion, clean it up a little, and recolor it. Just for fun. I'm not doing line art again for this one; I think a clean sketch would be good enough.
Drew this thing. A lot of things seem off; I might try to fix it when I do the actual line art.

I have something rather important to do. Might draw less for the next few days or even weeks.

Quick status report!
I'm doing fine, took way long of a break but I think maybe I needed that. Accidentally created an OC while doodling, but couldn't post them here because that would reveal too much about me. Maybe someday.

I somehow managed to experience burnout without doing anything. Maybe I'm just overthinking though.

In hindsight, the Fan O'War might fit better than the Atomizer. Well, at least I have something to look forward to.

I'm going to speedrun the lessons and homework on drawabox.com. I know this isn't what I'm supposed to do but I have a lot of free time today and I'm bored.

I decided I won't finish that one. I want to redraw something similar after I have a grasp of proportion, perspective, and anatomy. I think it looks surprisingly good for a first try though.

Did some basic shading, I think. I will figure the hair and eyes out some day. Maybe I should add highlights, details, and better shading or something.

And now I have to learn shading.

I realized I don't actually know what line art is but it's already too late. Will bring back the face when I try to color this.

I don't think I understand the proportion of a human body, let alone anatomy.
Nonetheless, I tried. It's a bit off but it'll get better, I hope.

This is what I look like IRL. I'm going to use this as my PFP until I no longer find it funny.
