I often dream about having a button I could press where I could temporarily forget everything I know about drawing so that I could do a few studies as a complete beginner. I really wish I had learned proper foundations etc from the start. It's so hard to see your drawings how they are objectively
I get stuck in so many ruts mentally and it's frustrating. Even when I try and approach things completely differently I feel like I end up in the same place as where I started. I can sort-of identify issues but I can't identify how to fix them because I'm too deep in my own art

I genuinely think the upper limits of an artist who starts out later in life is higher than someone who has been self-taught since childhood because there's fewer bad habits to unlearn
