Oh my gosh, thank you for such nice comments ;w; I can't thank you enough, it makes me so happy to see them. Thanks for helping me find the right forum @Bloo.
Curiously, my hand does not get sore from drawing/painting, but it gets sore easily from writing! Weird.
I don't think I'm an expert, but I guess for tips, I use a lot of references (I pretty much never draw without a reference, my paintings are more heavily referenced, but my sketches usually use a lot more references), and I also use my own self as a reference sometimes, like you can take a picture of yourself in a certain position to use it. I use gouache for paintings because it's easy to blend. And I also draw basic shapes first and then add details. also ofc everyone says this but practice helps haha, I'm on my 4th sketchbook, and TRUST ME my first one is horrible, and the second isn't much better.
Maybe I'll post some of my old art so you can tell if you think it's bad lol. Though I don't like to call art bad, because it isn't, it just can be improved
sorry for a text wall lol, thanks so much for the comments!!
