@Jozay Bigras As always: Some things are easier with another medium, some are more diffucult ^^

@Jozay Bigras I hope we speak about the same, but I guess yes. Just some squares in different greys on the scale from light to dark.

Nice practices!!! For the beginning of drawing anatomy, I'd try to simply copy some references first. So that you learn it by heart just by doing. At the start it might be difficult to do it just from memory

Don't beat yourself up pls!!! It is a journey. I had almost an equivalent talk to my father in law yesterday about feeling bad with my practice results and that I often feel about wasting my time ("I spend ... for this ugly result".) No matter at what point of experience you are. We all have these feelings from time to time! What helped me was the answer of my father in law, who knows many successful artists (painters and sculptors). He said: "Well, my friend told me he sometimes had to try something new like 50x and he found it ugly. But the 51th was a success then! So you should not bother about the 50x you failed, because these were neccessary to produce the final piece of art!" He also said (he is mainly a writer): "You should read some poems of Goethe. He was a big writer, but many of his poems read themselfs like you could put them into childrens poem books 🤣" And it is true!!!! These small exercises, they are so crucial! And also the famous guys did these!!!
