If I am naturally talented (based on what teachers have told me) and I stopped doing any kind of art after GCSE (age 17, I don't know what the American equivalent of GCSE exams are) what would be a good way to ease myself back into learning/doing stuff and identifying what level I am at?

a good way to identify what level you are at is to post your work

You're at the bottom level, and as someone who did three art GCSE's I can tell you that they aren't a measurement of skill in the slightest.

Read the sticky, start drawing daily, post your work often for crits and tips.

Good luck and more importantly, work hard.

Thanks, and I'm not measuring my skill based on how I performed in GCSE. I know I have raw talent because I have been told so by numerous people and also because I kind of just know innately.. hard to explain and I don't wanna sound full of myself but it's a strange case of it just clicking.

I would post some stuff I'd done but I unfortunately don't anything to show in my house. Also I'm sorry if this is a "READ THE STICKY" thing, I glanced over it and my first thought was that it seemed a bit trivial.

Isn't it A-level at 17?

Anyway it means nothing. Teachers at school want to tick boxes, not have you actually learn.

here's some of my art

Start first with learning about 1, 2 and 3 point perspective. That should help you learn about construction drawing good for characters and environments.
Practice everything that you have learnt by playing around with some boxes and other forms in perspective.
When you say you have "talent" what do you mean exactly? Drawing is several different skills working together depending on what type of drawing you are doing. Are you referring to observations drawing? Paint control? Imaginative drawing?

is this OP or some troll? if it is OP I must say that all artist look like shit in the start, they only differ in how good they are at hiding their starting works. It will get better after the first year, its a life long process, and if you feel the need to explore art then you probably have some talent for it. You only need to work hard/hardish for 3 years or so and your mom will be all proud and shit. This really isn't comlex, just very time taking and needs alot of effort.
