r/BeginnerArtists

hello, I am new to reddit and want to share my art journey and love to see other artists grow😊

the first one ist older, it was a few years ago and the second one I drew a couple months ago🫶

I recently fixed an artwork from 2024 but it’s still obviously not the best. Suggestions would be appreciated! And as you can see I still have no clue how to shade stuff properly lol, so I just kept the original shading

I started this drawing with a lot of motivation and it was going good but today my dad found out something that iv hid for the past 7 years so today is a MESS

i tried rendering but now I hate it and now I have art block

How did I do so far as a self learner?🙏

I accidentally colored most of the whites of the eyes lol.

I got critique on my last attempts at this like a week ago, and I've tried to improve since then.

I've been mainly studying skulls, ribcages and arms (I'm gonna study other parts, I just chose these 3 for now so I don't overload myself trying to learn all these bones/muscles at the same time.), because a lot of the critique I received basically said that my forms/anatomy were off, and some couldn't discern which body part was which/my characters didn't look human.

So I've made this drawing with the knowledge I've gained over the last week. Do my characters look more human? Do they look more 'correct'? Is what's happening more understandable?

Tried making a character series based on different songs/cultures from my playlist. I like the concept, but I’m struggling to make it look more polished. Any tips on improving depth, shading, or overall finish?

I’m trying to try the jjba art style for fun and decided to make Caseoh (I’m not gonna make him look like Polpo) in the style. I can’t really figure out how his hand should lay and I feel like the legs are kinda off rn but I think those are fixable things. If anyone understands this style better I’d love the help

Okay so I usually draw cartoon- ish, but wanted to go more realistic. The first slide is a drawing I did of a reference, that I can no longer find, a while back. The second one is a drawing I did like 5 minutes ago, and the last is the reference I used. I know it’s not grade but idk if I even improved or not. And I seriously don’t know how to improve or what I need to work on.

alcohol markers are so fun but soooo hard for me to learn to use

Inspired by kenshi skeleton and doom guy's armor. I still see some major mistakes, I'll redraw it again, please tell me how to improve.

This is my like 5th oil painting I’ve done and I can tell I’m getting a bit better, however I still want to improve. Is there anything I could do in the future to improve my oil paintings? I struggle a lot with Color matching and I’m very very slow
