Hello,
I really want to learn how to draw, but it's so difficult for me because I have never learned how to draw before worse I've never got the chance as a child to just take a paper and some colors and draw. At my school we were always encouraged to ignore drawing and focus on Maths and Science. But I have always loved art. I've always looked at other people drawings and wished that I was that good. I joined courses, but I have never finished them. Never even went further than a lesson or two because I am really bad at drawing and my results are always worse than a three year old with a pencil. But, today is my 28th birthday and I have decided to give myself a present. I won't buy myself anything fancy. I will just give myself time. from today till my next birthday, I will practice drawing for 2.5 hours per day. If on my next birthday I am still so bad at drawing, I will just give up once and for all. The only thing that matters during that year is to practice everyday and not to get good results. So, if you're interested in having someone to hold each other accountable to practice everyday, please consider being my study partner. Just take into account that I am a complete beginner so, I won't be able to provide you with anything other than holding you accountable to practice every day.
Have a good day.

I'll take a study partner too... You can look through my posts to see my works and skill level... I have a discord you can add so we can talk to one another through non forum way.
Though if you'd prefer to just critique one another's works (I may have to be helped to find what to look for as I just kind of see everything as looking good) So you'll have to basically help me learn to properly critique... But other than that I'll always look at any of your works any time.

hi walaa my name is Avşin. A little different than you ive been drawing since I'm a kid but you know what without training I'm still at the beginner level and its exciting that we've got a long way to go. I'm in medical school now. I'm there just for the diploma and for my parents. I will not become a doctor and right now I'm training to become an artist. Pls don't think about quitting or the future just embrace the moment you're in. Instead of questioning yourself, lead your questions towards how can you have a better strategy for drawing https://www.instagram.com/avshindraw/ this is my instagram, and im also challenging myself to draw everyday. Let's practice together <3 you may also want to watch these videos.

I used to cant nail the proportions of the face at all. I kept things super simple and drew 20 heads a day. Since a kept things simple It didn't take much time to draw a head. In two weeks a saw visible results here is the first 20 and last 20. Sycras way does work. Im so excited to draw with you!

Hi Avşin, thank you for your reply. I am so glad to have you as my study partner. It really means a lot of me that you took the time to tell me your story and to try to motivate me. I can't tell you how grateful I am.

Hi Walaa,
It's wonderful that you are giving yourself the time to learn something you've always wanted. I don't draw every day but aim for 30 minutes minimum for 5 days a week. I am happy to be a study partner if you like? I have been drawing for a long time but very out of practice :)
