Vent art. Six months ago my boyfriend broke up with me to be with his best friend. Im still impacted by it because I found out a lot of things after that. I also had gotten overly attached to him, and when he broke up with me he explained why. He told me all of my flaws, and everything he didnt like, then everything he needed. After he left me I tried to jump off a mountain. I was grabbed before I could fully walk off. After a couple of days my friends told me that he had been toxic, and now, I realize he was. He wasnt there when I was upset, and the day after he broke up with me he got with his best friend. He's caused me so many mental problems, some that I dont think ill ever get over. His name triggers me whenever I see it, and it doesnt help that he randomly pops up and acts so happy. And it hurts to see that hes happy, that hes better without me. My friends started something called Guard Duty. I cant be left alone because my mind drifts off. I have a new boyfriend, and hes better in every way. He cares, hes there for me, and hes more present in my life. Im so grateful for him and I love him more than anything. One of my friends told me too do vent art, to get out my emotions. And yeah, it helps so much. Its not quote what I imagined at first, but I did do my best. Also, sorry for putting this on yall. I know it sounds like a sob story or whatever, but I get my emotions out when I type. My therapist recently moved to a different area so I havent been able to see them. I dont know if anybody has read this out fully, but if you have, thank you. Thank you for listening to my thoughts.

My studies in the last seven days. I think I'm slowly getting accustomed to most muscles. The longer I draw them the more I recognize them under people's skin °v°
When you accidentally open almost all your chakras while drawing
Head too big, I know. It's always the head.
The last one took me just about 3 hours this time. Maybe less. I hope that continues like this. Planning to add colour to my daily sketches in about a month and getting into that whole mess :>
Also, hell, you all are talented. Sorry for what happened to you, Joseph. That's a horrible way to break up with anyone. But it's good that you are still here and finding methods to cope with your emotions. Writing/talking and drawing's probably more constructive than the other attempt, though, as nice as it is, maybe it'd be good to not forget the nature of this site either. Not saying anyone would use that against you, just, be careful with what you share out here

Out of curiosity how long did anatomy studies take you when you first started them? I've done gesture drawings and specific subjects (hands, faces) but have always been skittish with full anatomical studies because of the time investment.

As of now, I have stopped drawing and sketching.
These are some of the many sketches I did on my school notebook. Sorry for the poor quality.

I'm having a hard time getting used to digital drawing but I started using Krita instead of Gimp and it's much better.
I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone. I only usually draw static people so I'm going to use this random image generator and draw whatever pops up: https://www.generatormix.com/random-image-generator as a personal challenge. I want to get better at drawing backgrounds and actual scenery.

That's hard to say actually. It really wasn't all that planned when I started and also still isn't, so my schedule sorta varies. Though, during my first week, I think it didn't take much longer than three hours for a pose. I remember it was more about getting the expression of the figure right rather than the anatomical details. Especially when I upped it to two poses per day, and then at the end of the week to one pose and two faces. I tried to not spend longer than three hours on everything and often also just spent two.
That changed after a while though. Every now and then I improve and then aim to keep that quality up. Around this time drawing may take me up to 5 hours until I got used to it and it goes down to 2-4 hours again. Especially now that I only do one picture per day anymore. Gives me more time to focus on the details. Spending more time than 6 hours on something is unusual for me though. That's when my program crashes or I'm that unhappy with a pose that I redo it all over again ^^
It's probably important to say though that I can only really invest that much time into drawing since my job's kinda non-existent anymore (tourism industry). If I'd work full time again I don't know how I'd manage all of that.
Edit: Oh, and @Insignificant person, please don't stop drawing. Your style is so expressive and unique, it'd be a shame if you wouldn't do anything with it. Even if it's just to entertain your kids or something, you have talent, man

I have the same problem, but the opposite side. I need to do a good effort to make characters look masculine. But with practise you will discover small things that help define feminine and masculine faces, like the jawline starting slightly above the mouth for men and slightly below the mouth for women.Some of my women unfortunately suffer from man-face.
Anatomy is a constant for me and even if i know i'm getting better, there is still a lot of work to do before i can draw something without reference. But i will say the best way to do anatomy studies is with a bit of practise, since getting to see the shape of what you are trying to draw is probably the most important part. Once good exercise i did time ago was to draw my own hand without looking back to the paper, just following the shape of your hand with your eyes.
But if you want to study anatomy, i recommend getting anatomical charts. Mainly, the ones showing the body muscles. They are probably the best to study the shape of the body since making the body piece by piece is much easier than going for what we percieve as a whole.
It's amazing to see the thread still growing and people contribuiting, both old and new. This week has been a bit hectic for me and i haven't focused on anything special. I have to put more focus on doing bigger things even if they end up looking like garbage. Anyways, here is the stuff.
Like i said, very hectic. I need to get better at capturing the gesture from models or characters i draw will look stiff as a plank. I also thought about filling some of the empty spaces in the page with objects since i also need to improve drawing items.
Last page of my sketchbook. I decided to go over some old things by memory. The female torsos are done like that but i needed the reference for the male one, as well as for the legs since i still suck at making legs. And probably the best it's the pants in the bottom. I enjoyed making those.
Edit: For some reason, thumbnails didn't showed.

Currently rendering the background. It's 102 frames long. After that, I put the pedestrians in to give it a shadow effect to emulate paper... Then I rendering 102 MORE frames to get the final version. And I only finished rendering 28 frames... UUUUGH...
