    Howdy, Sid O!!

    Try speed drills!!

    Make the gesture drawings, 20 min at a time, 2 min each. Focus on just getting the basics down and getting comfortable with repitition!

    Don't try to get the details, start with literal stick figures and build from there. Also study the human body/anatomy!

    I know you might think "how will this help with shakey line work?" 4 things!!

    1. Muscle familiarity - Jus like in martial arts and sports, the more you do an activity, the more your muscle memory will kick in. Your muscles will get used to drawing smoothly, and it'll make the art look better!!

    2. Study! - Do slow and intentional drawings of the human body. Without worrying about the line quality, focus in on how the body is structured, where basic muscles are, how body parts transition from section to section (i.e limbs to torso to hips to legs to feet.) As you gain knowledge, you'll gain flow and confidence. Also, drawing from your shoulder and not the hand/wrist helpled me quite a bit.

    3. Experience - As you grow familliar, your brain will start to recognize and connect the dots artistically. After drawing a bunch of arms, you'll generally know how arms work and it'll become more automatic from a mental stand point on how to draw them. After drawing a bunch of eyes, you'll know what they look like and what you'll need to draw in order for it to "look" like an eye!

    4. "Finished not perfect," is my artistic motto. Dont aim for perfection. You will literally never reach it. Focus on improvement. After you finish an art piece, write down what you liked about it, what you did well, and what you wish to impove upon. If you do this, it will be less discouraging over time, you'll be able to track growth, and the growth WILL happen.

    4.5 Embrace it. Make the wiggly lines an intentional choice and styling about you art. Make that part of what makes your art YOUR art.

    TLDR; Speed drills, Study human anatomy, consistency over time, relax /or embrace it as an artistic choice.

    Hi there!!

    Based off of what youve said, it may also be a case of your growth in arts-based knowledge outpacing your ability to execute what you wish to create/draw at your current skill level.

    I've seen it several times and it is one of the more discouraging challenges I've dealt with artistically.

    Just keep truckin and be patient with yourself.
