hey, i know you don't really know me but i look at your art and i notice there's a few issues for your art and i want to offer you some constructive criticism and i think you might be able to use it. just so you know i'm not trying to be rude, and i really hope you will take this as advice and use it to help yourself in future art you make.

first of all i would recommend you practice your anatomy. i see you have a steady style and it looks pretty good, but the anatomy is a bit botched in some places. what i notice mostly is in a lot of your pieces you say you have trouble with drawing hands in the description. what i suggest doing to practice drawing hands is to look at references! it's the most simple way to improve and it's helped me a whole lot. as for the hands themselves, they look fine but often are a bit too small and just slightly weird looking when looked at seriously. again looking at references is probably the best way you could improve on these things. here's a tip that you could do: try practicing drawing from life. and i'm not talking about inanimate objects; i'm talking about looking at a real life human and drawing them. you of course don't have to make those drawings perfect and definitely don't have to implement a totally realistic style, but what i'm trying to say is you should look into learning anatomy before you break it to make your own style. sooner or later you should see your stylized art slowly improve anatomy wise!! 

second of all i notice a glaring problem in your gallery. there's little to no backgrounds! i admit i struggle with this too but it's really better to practice drawing them. i know i'm gonna sound redundant saying practice so much but IT'S REALLY TRUE. practicing and practicing drawing is the way to improve. practice makes perfect is an ollld and tired trope and i really hate saying it but it's probably the best thing you could do. just give it a go, don't dwell on what you think is bad too much and just maybe try to draw a bit more backgrounds, even if they're simple or just a plain color.

speaking of colors, your gallery has few. i know it's hard to add colors when you're a traditional artist but believe me, it really makes it pop. the drawings you have that are colored are just a lot better visually than the uncolored style you seem to be bringing on now. i'm not saying add a whole page of color for every drawing, heavens no, but try to implement more than just lineart. even adding just a few colors looks good. maybe try to add colors to a few more drawings than you usually do because i know you might not think so but it adds so much to the piece in all.

another thing i've noticed in your gallery is the lack of diversity of poses. the pose used in this Lycoris Radiata(Lynn)(OC)  drawing was used ... 7 times in total. good pose, but your art could be a lot better if you don't recycle the same pose multiple times. here's the solution i always use: www.senshistock.com/sketch/ . that is a GODSEND in both practicing anatomy and getting pose ideas. of course i'm not saying you have to use those poses, a simple google search can give more ideas if you don't like those. but seriously, using that to practice anatomy is just .. a++ man

finally, i'm just gonna give you a few tips in general. i'm not saying you do these things but a lot of people (including me sometimes rip) do them.

1. there is /always/ going to be someone better than you. no matter what. don't dwell on it too much. try to work less on comparing yourself to them and more on turning that envy into inspiration to get better.

2. draw as much as you can. i'm not gonna say practice everyday because a lot of people can't do that but just try to practice whenever you can. don't get mad at yourself for not drawing, but just draw when you can. you don't have to post everything you draw, but just draw. it sounds weird but just draw, go crazy man

3. if you get bored or stuck, just try another way. some ways to draw are to not care about what you're drawing and draw like a kid again. do something weird. draw in another medium if you can. try abstract art. just go wild 

4. you're not going to make masterpieces with every drawing. and you shouldn't. you don't have to put your all into every single drawing you make, that just drains you further. sometimes ya just have to draw self indulgent crap y'know? that doesn't mean every drawing you do should take no effort, just don't feel ashamed if you don't always spend 227834776 hours (exaggeration) or stuff on a drawing. 

5. try the post-it method. what's that you ask? it's when you take a stack of post-it notes and begin with drawing a small simple thing you may have trouble with. let's say hands for example. just draw a hand on the first post it note in maybe a few different poses or something. or just one. next, you completely set it aside. draw the hand over and OVER again using references this time. you'll be amazed at how much you've improved. (also YOU DON'T HAVE TO MAKE THE HANDS/WHATEVER YOU'RE DRAWING PERFECT. PRACTICING DRAWING EM WITH REFS WILL GET YOU A LOT CLOSER THAN THE ORIGINAL, EVEN IF THE NEW ONES ARE DRAWN REALLY QUICK! i swear by this)

6. your art is not destined by the amount of favs/comments it gets. i know it can get discouraging if something you worked really hard on gets 0 attention (i super know how that feels), but it's not defined by the attention it gets. i swear

and.. just for some good measure here's a few references:
artist-advice.tumblr.com/ (god this one's a lifesaver, it teaches about cartooning to realism to writing to art, man i love itt)
pencilcat.tumblr.com/post/2742… (THIS IS AWESOME!)
how-to-art.tumblr.com/ (its been closed down recently but the old stuff is a+)
fyeaharttips.tumblr.com/
jazzastudios.com/product/arty-… (it's 3 dollars but man it's one of the best 3 dollars i've ever spent. it saves sameface disease and is REALLY GOOD PRACTICE!)


and that's the end of my long comment, i really hope you do take this to mind and actually use this advice to get better. please note i'm not insulting your art!!! i'm just trying to help you improve. don't take this as an insult pleasseee i'm already scared enough to post this man. i spent two hours on this comment so PLEASE take some of it to account ;;
