>Your study process
If studying from life or photo I construct it via envelope, lay down a flat mid tone, layer in shadows, work out the values and add highlights last. If I'm creating from imagination I make a series of thumbnail compositions, flesh out the ones I like then continue as above.

>How long have you been seriously drawing for
Serious as in having a passion for creating art? As early as I can remember.

Wanted to add drawing from life to my study process. It’s how I make my work look dynamic.

Human Anatomy For Artists by Xiao Weichun

Honestly haven't read much else relating to art, the first chapter of Vilppu, Bridgman, Loomis and Hampton I guess.
More helpful were:
Design Theory and Art Theory videos by Sinix
Painting and Color videos by Marco Bucci

>Your study process
Since the subject of most of my study is people, both in photo studies and master studies, I usually start with constructing the reference. Even for gesture I try to at least consider form before even shape, though I've been able to incorporate shape more the better I get at forms.
For other studies like landscapes I tend to start shapes first.
More generally I always try to question my methods and try new things. Other than that it's just doing things over and over again.


>How long you've been seriously drawing for
A little under 1.5 years I guess. A month or two more if you want to count the times I tried following drawabox or some other plan for a week and didn't touch a pen again for a year or more

Oh, and maybe one thing i forgot for study process:
Drawing something alongside people that are better than you and being able to compare your and their study of the same thing helps a lot. Probably most common with figure drawing, but I bet there's events or stuff for other things as well
