How can I get better at art?

Question

I mean comic art and drawing the figure with different posses/places.

I have been drawing art since I was little, but I always find myself with great ideas for drawings, but I cannot draw them and I usually get frustrated.

Are there any tips to be better at art?

And have you had any experiences yourself with this?

Thank- you =]

Answer 1

My parents bought me several books on just this topic. They helped very much but are out dated by now. Library and book stores should be of some help.

Answer 4

I think the best advice I can give you is to get hold of some good learning materials. When it comes to being a good artist, trial and error practice can only get you so far. Buy some books about drawing so you can learn the right techniques, practice life drawing and study anatomy so you understand what is going on under the surface of the body - nothing is more important to learning to draw it well. :) If you like comic art, "How to draw comics the Marvel way" by Stan Lee is a very good book to chase up.
