What would you tell to your 20yo self

>Masturbate AFTER drawing.
aren't you supposed to masturbate before drawing so you can look at your own porn more objectively?

-Stop browsing imageboards
-Draw instead

That's all.

Buy as much Apple stock as you can afford then ride out life from 2005 onward.

>>2676604
No. Masturbating kills your immediate sex drive, so you won't be able to put your heart into it.

Actually you draw first, powered with your sex drives; then you masturbate, the wait makes it better; then you check your drawing again and correct your mistakes, your mind is clearer.

This. So fucking much this. I wouldn't say stop smoking weed or watching porn it'd only be this.

Shitposting is a disease.

>Goes back in time one year
>Draw from life more
>Practice fundamentals more
>For fucks sake learn to draw backgrounds
>Draw actual people for once
>Don't ever go to 4chan
>Actually warm up before, don't jump right into it
>Relax

>find a real job as fast as you can, before it's too late
>invest in $ as much as you can
>go to local fine art school

don't have unprotected sex with a whore

Yeah, you flip the penis, then the canvas.

Well obviously ignoring the non-art related shit I'd still have quite a few things to say.

>you suck at art, join conceptart and git gud
>stop focusing on rendering and details, but fundamentals
>don't put your art over your studies, you'll suddenly get health problems and fail when least expected
>stop trying to copy the 'badass artists', you'll learn those weren't that good
>buy a fucking tablet you pleb
>keep your old work just to see how much you've improved
>stop playing shitty video games that waste all of your free time
>paint on a regular basis
>there's a difference between mindless copy and using a reference

>Stop using that shitty pencil for gesture drawing. Use charcoal instead.
>Buy fucking bitcoins.

>>2677644
>>Buy fucking bitcoins.
This, god I could've been rich if I'd jumped on the train.

>>2676597
But what if I am 20
>Don't give up!

>>2676597
I knew this at nineteen brah save for the maturbaring part.

>>2676604
After i stopped masturbating ( believe me it can be done)
My imagination and technical skills reached level
71

fuck i literally just masturbated while looking at references for anatomy and lost all my drive so i continued browsing

>>2681626
Get old saggy people as reference until you learn to respect the human body as an artist. What are you gonna do, get a boner in a life drawing class?

Don't kill yourself.

>>2676597
>Don't date that psycho that will suck every ounce of inspiration and drive from you. It will take five years for you to be normal again, fucking LEAVE


Pretty much the only thing I would really have to say...

It's really easy to tell who the virgin artists are on this site because they're always worried about when they should masturbate in regards to their art or get turned on by their own artwork. Go fuck a real girl, you guys are pathetic.

spoookyyy

>>2682037
the majority of them are that way rabbit.

I have painted nothing but gorgeous women since I was in highschool and not once have I been turned on by a drawing, my reference, or any of my models. Always professional.

Unless I have a relationship or a crush... then It's a "draw me like one of your french girls" situation.

>>2676597
you can use your ADHD to your own advantage. oh and stop fighting bullies everyday and get to class, your friends must learn to defend themselves.

>20yo self
That's 4 years ago and I really didn't have a too different mindset back then

I'd just tell myself to think more about shapes

Lmao sex is overrated. Only fat losers look up to sex that much. Once you experience it, it becomes nothing better than taking a shit.
