How can I improve my art skills?

Improving your art skills involves practice, studying techniques, and seeking feedback. What specific area do you want to focus on?

I want to get better at drawing human figures.

Great choice! You can start by practicing anatomy, using reference images, and doing gesture drawings. Have you tried any of these?

I've done some gesture drawings, but I struggle with proportions.

Proportions can be tricky! A helpful method is to use the 'head' measurement technique, where you measure the figure's height in heads. Would you like tips on that?

Yes, that would be helpful!

To use the head measurement technique, start by drawing the head and then use it as a unit to measure the rest of the body. For example, the average adult is about 7-8 heads tall. Practice this with different poses!
