is anyone good at this? i just had a quick question, and it's gonna sound stupid. but when i whine about how bad i am at drawing, and i ask people how to improve, they say "oh just practice over and over."
but how does continuously drawing bad pictures make me better? ._.

You have to be either born with talent or work on it from an early stage. Pretty much too late unless you practice like 8 hours a day.

this too.
all the great artists i know have drawn a lot at an early age.
i know people who try jumping into it during high school and college and their art work isn't even on par to those who don't draw when they're old but have drawn a lot when they're young

If you really want to learn how to draw well, you need a foundation. Start by drawing hands or human figures.

The difference between a successful person and a failure is the effort and passion.
