I'm from Sydney, but live in London now. Will probably go back to Sydney eventually.

I think I need to relearn how to draw, from like, scratch ???

Like, I'm good with forms and color, but I cannot seem to uhh... construct anything. Like arting for me consists mostly of making a bunch of random shapes and if it looks relatively right then I work on it more.

What do I do? :(
Oh yes naked women are beautiful
But I like shrimps more haha ;)

That's why you draw from life.

Not because you are good, but to get good.

Learn from your mistakes, and all that jazz.

yeah, every now and then I realize my drawing skill has significantly dropped so I start drawing from life for a few hours and it gets back in shape for a day or two. working on small scale sprites may improve my overall understanding of form and light, but it seems to reduce the quality of my freehand drawing

Practice!

I found this interesting and enjoyable:

It's a hue test, to see how accurately your eyes perceive colour.

Lower score is better, my result was a ZERO. Hooray!  ;D
