Sometimes I wonder if they have the same art related issues as us
Maybe they do, maybe they don't... I wonder...

And if they don't, how so?

Good question. I like to think it comes from artists starting their art journeys in different places. Maybe they liked drawing cars, so machinery is their strong suit, but they have trouble drawing birds. I believe that us artists do have similar issues, just different ways of arriving at the answers to them. Thank you for responding. Also, how did you learn how to draw your figures? They are very dynamic ;)

@TheJudddman
Thank you! :)
I often like to doodle shapes, and try to exaggerate the angles. That way, I know how to draw the different shapes, both 3D, and 2D :)
The drawback I guess is that my drawings are pretty angular, because by focusing on angles, and I hardly draw any curves :3

Pretty good plan! Seems like a good way to learn is by playing with it. The more you have fun with it, the more you might understand it. Thank you!

Whenever it comes to stuff like this, I remind myself that, regardless of age/skill level, the fact that someone created it, means it's humanly possible. Therefore "I'll never be as good them" is a completely invalid self criticism. An artist's potential is practically infinite, regardless of the time it takes to be at a desired level of skill.

Good point! I suppose it doesn’t matter what age I am. I’ll still have my potential even if I’m older. Anyone can go anywhere no matter what they are. Thank you.

Entiendo ese sentimiento, aunque aveces sucede alrevez. Vez a alguien unos años más grande que tu y piensas que su arte es mucho mejor que el tuyo, y no crees que puedas llegar a eso en tan poco tiempo. Pero me pongo a pensar en mi hermano, el me veía dibujar y siempre quiso hacer algo similar y aunque intentará no podía. El estuvo mucho tiempo estudiando, practicando y mejoro mucho, pero aveces uno es muy perfeccionista y desea ser más. El simplemente se rindió, y dejó el dibujo. Pero su estilo es super único y me encanta!! Nose que le hace pensar lo contrario. Aveces tienes que buscar la belleza en lo más raro.

Entiendo. Ese es un buen consejo. Siempre debemos estar dispuestos a explorar cosas nuevas en nuestro arte. El arte extraño siempre me emociona. Por eso soy fanático de músicos como Mr. Bungle y John Zorn. Empezaré a buscar cosas interesantes y extrañas. ¡Gracias!

when it comes to art and character designs a good and well designed character is made by using the correct shapes! if they're easily recognisably just by their silhouette, then they are a good character. you have to have your hand get into the rhythm of drawing, draw the same thing over and over again or the same characters over and over again, it will take time to learn but you will be drawing flawlessly in no time! ive seen your work, your art is abstract and i love it! i look forwards to seeing more of your work in the future!

I appreciate it very much! Repetition is key in these scenarios, I suppose. I'll start researching shape language and character design. Thank you again!

@TheJudddman of course!

a lot of the time i'm just surrounded by things that i wanna incorporate in my drawing like architecture, plants, animals, weird shit, etc. my inspiration has been waning recently cause i'm not interacting with anything new but holy hell. i get where ur comin from. keep up with the groove and overthink everything. B)

I get it man. Sometimes the environment you surround yourself in can greatly affect how you operate. I hate overthinking too. It happens all the time and its hard to quit. Thank you.
