Good evening!
I noticed that you posted this 11 days ago so I don't know if you have made improvements since then, but from what I can see, you might want to look into the proportions such as the rule of heads. You will learn how long the back should be, the legs, how the forearm is the same length as the foot, etc... I can also see that you are using the famous scribbly lines, it is hard to stop doing it, but learning to do continuous long lines instead of tiny quick little lines will help you a lot and will make your drawings cleaner, ...once you get the hang of it. I greatly recommend you to watch tutorials on youtube or other platforms so that you get to look back on them and be able to critique your own drawings! Being able to do such a thing will make you improve faster since you will know what you did wrong, and so I recommend you to practice on what you lack in. Great youtube channels that I would recommend you would be : Proko, Mark Brunet, ... If you want to you can watch other artists draw and see how they start their drawings, though be aware that some are really advanced and can draw an entire figure in just a few lines. Which is the goal! Someday you will be able to do the same : Get a lot of results with less effort. Well I hope you have a great weekend!

Your guidance is incredibly appreciated! I will look into those channels and I'm happy to say I am already working on my scribbly lines thanks to another fellow artists advice! I do also need to use the rule of heads as i remembered it existed but not how to use it. I look foward to my improvement and I hope you do a lot of growing in your artistic journey as well, much love!
