Teacher back in school made us do the igor stravinsky upside down drawing. fast forward 10 years of occasional art phases that never lasted more than a month or two. Remembered that I'm not fucking poor anymore like back when I was a kid and bought myself a screen tablet mid-early 2024. Started participating in the thread challenges and took a more reference type approach with the goal to make what I draw look good instead of going full training wheels off. Been at it for almost a year without any significant break.

I feel like the thread challenges leaped me forward because I was able to compare myself to other anons on what I did vs what they drew and how to simplify and abstract a real person into lines instead of just copying a pre simplified drawing. also used that as a base for favourite animu girls
