don't be picky

Fuck no. I think beginners should get decent/competent at observational drawing first (Keys to drawing is a good book for this). Getting rid of symbol drawing is the first thing someone should do. It also helps build a visual library / mileage.
Then learn the basics of perspective and consequently how three dimensional shapes work (Draw a Box should help, I'm going through it right now. Dynamic Sketching is good too, but it expects you to already know how to draw, intersect and chop 3D shapes, so it's more advanced).

The issue here is that beginners jump to fun with a pencil without knowing how to draw a sphere, let alone chopping it and adding stuff to it.
