If I'm low iq, starting from zero and self-taught (i.e. no classes or online courses) what balance of studies and finished work should I aim for? My goal is to be a well rounded draftsman with decent rendering skills.
>>8032910>Get a copy of Jason Brubaker's Cognitive Drawing and finish the book from cover to back.>Grab a copy of DSRB and do the exercises.>Start off with lines for a few days, then move on to shapes and forms for 1-3 weeks. Go back to line/shape/form exercises as warmups.>Use line-of-action dot com for gesture studies of your chosen subject(s).>Copy your favorite characters/posters and draw literally anything you like as long as you have a reference. >Spend more time looking at the ref than your paper as you draw. Then draw it from memory, and compare the results. Trace over the reference and see where you're fucking up if needed.>Start drawing from life. Sketch your immediate surroundings (and the interiors of whatever room you're sitting) from various angles.If you want to boost your IQ, cut junk food entirely from your diet and start eating chia seeds, seaweed, and high quality ramen noodles. The more fat and fiber, the better your brain is for it. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables. Start eating Greek yogurt mixed with said chia seeds. Get your blood tested for any vitamin deficiencies.
>>8032910Get a mentor, if at all possible. Nothing helps more, regardless of things like IQ or current skill level.>>8032932Don't forget to get your protein and excercise.
>>8032932chia seeds have the added benefit of making your shit buttery smooth too.
>>8032938>>8032937Sleep is also very important for learning a creative skill, as it's where most of your long-term growth takes place. Not only should you get plenty of sleep, but you need to cultivate high-quality sleep. The deeper you sleep, the easier drawing becomes. Before you go to bed, drink a warm glass of milk and have a kiwi and/or a tomato for the melatonin. Make sure you eat your seaweed around this time so you don't wake up tired from the lack of B12.Since you're starting from zero, you should create at least one significant project every week, while doing studies every day. Make sure your studies complement each other and contribute towards the project>example: you want to draw a person, so you study bodies, clothed bodies, gesture studies of bodies in motions, and the skeleton, then finally put it all together in a drawing of a person you like (using references)
>>8032910krenz started a new class that is for even more beginners than the kindergarden course, given that the kindergarden one had an optional module where he teaches you to hold a pen and make a straight line, maybe the prebeginner one is right for a brainlet like you
>>8032932>DSRBWhat's that?
>>8032959I think he meant Drawing in the Right Side of the Brain.Get the workbook, do the excercises. You can skip the regurgitated half heard pseudoscience wank from the 60s.
>>8032932Why is the choice be dumb as bricks or eat something that tastes worse than bricks what a pain

Still pushing the iq meme I see
clearly its not an agenda pushed by a group, but an idea that forms independently
>>8033024Not Op here but I could absolutely use the mentorship, I'm on discord and twitter, Would you like to talk about it?
“Discord mentorship” is literally just gay sex, that’s it

People slow you down; you can use your brain and AI to get ahead.
