I'm going to start college to study engineering.
I'm going to have some free hours where I have nothing to do.

What would be my best shot to improve?
Just do background drawings, life drawings?

I'm not a begginer, simply an amateur who enjoyed some years ago to draw.

Any advice to doing life studies?

What's the purpose of such studies (a little confused over why I should do them)?

How do I practice gesture and movement?

How do I learn to render textures?

So new on all of this, I've only done drawings from imagination.

Don't worry about it, you won't have any free time.

At least I can draw competently now and it's a viable option unlike a while ago.

So you too eh? Yeah, I'm a stem major who's now in his 6th yr of college because he keeps thinking about what if art.

If you're asking that question, then you are a beginner. It will be best for you to think in that way, so that you can focus on starting over and getting a formal understanding of the fundamentals of drawing.

Also, even if you don't see a point in drawing anymore, such as: it's not your major, it's not going to be your profession, it's not going to make you rich, it's not gonna get you laid, and so on. Just draw anyway for the sake of it. If you have an interest, you should just explore it for its own sake.

>What's the purpose of such studies (a little confused over why I should do them)?
To learn how to draw light, perspective, form, etc. If you ever want to be a decent artist, especially one that can draw from imagination, you need to master drawing from real life first.

>How do I practice gesture and movement?

All of that is explained in the sticky. Read it. Have the mindset of starting at the beginning. See where you need work, and see which parts you can move on from. Then you're in the drawing grind just like the rest of us.

I'm doing EE/ECE and I have fuckloads of free time.

Only classes I really have to study for are calc and circuits.

Main problem is I keep shitposting here and not actually drawing.

I've never heard of an electrical engineering student who has free time. That's like a unicorn or something.

I just do hard stuff in the summer, summer classes are easier and you only have to focus on one class at a time.

Also, I tested out of a bunch of classes.
