Drawing

General
I've been drawing a lot these past two days. I want to get better. I don't know why I have such a strong impulse to draw and get better, but it's definitely there.
4/28/14 - had a dream I was drawing... So obsessed.
Must practice shading, shading is everything. I never knew how much an art teacher and an AP student could help and enlighten me.
Ugh...I'm so bad...I can't even shade :C
4/30 - The drawing that had taken me 14 hours to do has me confused on how I feel. I almost feel encouraged to do more, but it took me so long. I didn't think it would be as great as it would be, but everyone says it's awesome. Maybe I'm just getting down on myself...
5/2 - No doubt I'm getting better. Been drawing so much at school, practicing anatomy on muscles and such. Yesterday I practiced the arms, since I always struggled on them, and I also found how to do a front view with a muzzle. Was difficult finding it, but these two things I've been practicing are only shades, which I just started to do four days ago...
5/6 - It really takes dedication to get better because it's not easy. Still trying, but I feel I'll just maintain this same level of drawing. Meh.
5/27 - Haven't been drawing lately.
7/10 - Well...it's been quite awhile, and so busy, so busy.
8/12 - Bum bum de dum bum bum...
9/2 - School started so I'm drawing again C: working on muscles I think. Probably won't be seeing anything computerised or edited, so it probably won't be as good as my last drawing. Or maybe it will. Who knows :> I find it hard to duplicate a part, like hands looking identical. But the more I try, the better I get. Strategies, tricks, and knowledge all fits together to look better, and is improved by drawing. May be posting again soon.
10/2 - Drawing again. Kind of. I still really want to get better, and listening to NiN, Tool, and German music really puts me in a good mood to draw. I still need to practice on the front/front-side prespective for the head.
12/4 - Haven't drawn in well over a month now. I just got a new dog two weeks ago and I've been really busy. Been getting like 5-6 hours every night, which isn't much got me, getting 9-12 hours before. I still want to get better, draw more, but I don't Have time right now. The only thing I've written in the past month, too, was a 10k weird story for English. I guess it's not a bad thing I don't time for things like that anymore, but I still want to. It feels like... home, maybe because I've been doing it for so long.
1/14/15 - I want to draw something amazing, something to surprise myself. I know my most recent drawing sucks, but the best part of it is the head angle. That's what I've had the least practice on, and something I don't practice often, but I won't get better doing the same thing over and over again. Try new things, angles, shades, postures. My only problem is finding the inspiration and enlightenment to come up with something...
8/10 - Uh...well, I had almost forgotten about this. I have not drawn in a very...very long time. I can't even remember the last thing I drew. I've been very busy...but maybe I'll get back into it soon. I must. It is still a desire I hold, if only it weren't so time consuming and requiring so much patience...nonetheless, I haven't given up on bettering myself at drawing.
