Description
As a 16 y/o self-taught student, I can't go to concept art school, I can't even have an ArtStation portfolio, the online courses are too damn expensive, and I don't know what to do. I've done many Schoolism.com courses, but all but a few have really helped me. I know how composition and lighting works, I know how depth works, I just can't translate it very realistically onto a canvas. I have a great idea inside my head, but the lighting doesn't work. Or maybe I have good lighting, but then have no clue what should be in the drawing. I want to just graduate high school which is pretty dumb overall, and just get into concept art school. I'm stuck in a rut repeating the same damn routine every day in school to learn something that I won't apply in later life, especially as an artist.I don't know of any concept art programs for young students, and if there is, certainly not where I live.
Ok bye.
EDIT: refinement in drawing.

If you feel like you can't find any courses to improve yourself, honestly it just comes down to practicing. I get how you feel; classes seem unreachable because of age restrictions, money restrictions, location restrictions, etc etc etc.
You have a great idea inside your head, so do it. You're afraid it might come out wrong, but you shouldn't try to make a masterpiece. You try to make it perfect and in the end, you're always let down. Most masterpieces you see out there were just practice in the minds of the artists themselves.
I guess you just gotta muscle through it all and keep on doing what you love doing, no matter the circumstances.

You're absolutely right. It all just comes down to spilling your heart and letting the artwork come alive, which is something I always try to do. Thanks for your inputΒ Β Β
