you really need to finish some even if youre not satisfied, or you will never finish a piece of art. its something you will have to force yourself to do, and yes it will help you understand a lot of things you may be struggling with. finishing a piece is also a part of the learning process, dont think you have to be a master to finish a piece of art, or you will never get to the level you want.

That might actually be a good idea. There's too many people who are /beg/s transitioning to amateurs. They don't need the sticky anymore. They're putting in the work. And they're usually the ones in need of the most critique and have a chance at improving.

I used to be a "draws loomis heads in 3/4ths mindlessly for half a year and never improve"er but I've evolved into "Only ever draws 1 half assed piece every few days to use in my rulebook and hasn't done a real study or even sketched since 2017"

But do you draw a lot every day? I draw like 10 hours a day when I'm not writing and I make sketches and thumbnails all the time. Whatever I like I scan and draw it digitally then print it out and ink it, if I have other sketches I like that I can't make on time for the day I pin them to a corkboard and do them the next day.
My worst thing is writing for comics, I just end up procrastinating or doing more concept art and illustrations. When I have to sit down and write I become so unproductive.
There has to be one sketch out of 10 or 20 or 50 that catches your eye and you think might become a finished piece. And you need to practice your inking and coloring skills too, you're missing out on a lot of language if you just sketch.
This is from someone who loves sketches above all else, I'd rather have a very nice gestural pencil sketch with construction lines visible than a fully rendered painting

Currently "The Unfinished Sketch" here.

I dont think I've EVER completed a work that wasn't for some assignment. Even in my various sketchbooks the closest I've ever gotten is doing lineart over them but never color or value really.

Been trying to break out of this as I transition to digital but painting is so overwhelming to me. I completely suck at color theory, and the thought of spending hours getting colors right frustrates me because then I think of all of the new sketches/ideas I could be doing in that time.

Quality over quantity any day of the week imo.

some days I'll do an hour, some I'll do six, depends on the flow I guess. I try not to worry about time spent, more the fact that I'm drawing, relieves a lot of the pressure and makes it easier.
