I've always drawn cartoonish/abstract art, but never bothered trying to get myself into realism. Now that I am older, I've grown out of that. Now I really want to draw realistic figures. Problem is, my hands won't let me. I've read Loomis and it seemed to make my eyes/brain/whatever draw even more cartoony. What will help me? Do I draw a skeleton or something for weeks or something to figure out the anatomy? I'm at a loss.
Pic unrelated.
Maybe you should fucking practice.
