There's one way you can get better at drawing, work at it. Just like anything else in life. Just like I was thinking that by the time you make your 20,000 post, you might learn how to write a complete sentence that actually makes sense too. Work at it.


Agreed on artistic expression. I am terrible at art but do it a lot for fun and don't go to message boards to ask if I am any good at it. It is about the process not the product.

However, I have to point at that this is likely a traced or copied steelhead. That position of the fish has been used a lot. It isn't like this view hasn't been seen before.

You want to impress me rh, draw a steelhead in a position I haven't seen a thousand times. Learn how to actually draw a fish, not emulate someone else who is a gifted illustrator that could draw a steelhead in hundreds of ways. That is the hard part.

And when your gf is done with nursing school, please tell her to give me a call.
