Looking to learn to draw something new? Touch up on your art skills with some practice exercises? Get started in your art journey?
I've put together a google doc linking to a bunch of art resources and tutorials for all those art learning needs! >:3
Everything there is categorized and tagged for easy searching and I try my best to add more when I can. If there's any subject that you feel could use more references, just ask, and I can do my best to find more.

Learn to create, or learn to deal with the hatred. You do not get to have it both ways.
Of all the things in the world you could choose to do, creating is something that comes with some of the most abundant and accessible teaching resources available. Nearly every artist/writer/crafter has put out some tutorial or another. Millions of them. In every format imaginable. Those who don’t make tutorials are frequently taking on the job of directly teaching people. We want you to learn, to join us in making things. We want you to feel the joy of making something. You were not gatekept from this. You chose the easy way out, and then got mad when people who put the work in said No, we don’t like that you steal from us. We don’t like that you steal and profit from our work. We don’t like that you took our jobs with the theft of our work. And no, you aren’t a part of our community because you aren’t actually creating anything.
You don’t get it both ways. You don’t get to steal from us and be welcomed and loved. But you can still make a choice. A choice that benefits you, and everyone in the community. You can choose to learn how to create. I promise you the reward that you’re looking for, the dopamine hit of attention and completion of work that you’re trying to get. It exists. It’s actually easier to reach than you think. And we will help you every step of the way.

If I see one more person draw a plus sized/midsized character skinnier than they actually are and act like that’s what they look like I’m going to blow up and take all your arts file with me

Art Lessons
I'm just dropping this here because the idea keeps floating in my head about revisiting something I did back in the SAMS server (yes, hi, I was there, some of you probably know me from art chat) that I really enjoyed and I've been considering trying again to provide accessible resources to young or under-skilled artists.
So, back in the day (early 2023) when I was there (SAMS), I held a couple of streams where I tried to explain anatomy and breaking down bodies into shapes and how those lessons overlapped into other subjects like non-humans. I felt there was a moderate success, as I am and always have been, self-taught and thus I don't have the formal knowledge that comes from university classes (though I would like some one day); having been online enough I've seen the biases in the art community with the agism and such where older people who "missed" the window of opportunity are often pushed aside because they're expected to "know" by now how to Do The Thing when they weren't given the same opportunities then.
I've also seen how most how-to books, videos and classes, in many countries, seem to lack general fundamentals as part of their criteria; the number of 'students' who professed that their teachers or the instructor seemed to assume they had a basic idea of how to draw already before starting class was... staggering to say the least.
"I didn't know what [this] meant, I was just told to do it."
"We were never taught how to break this down, we just had to copy [this]."
Etc.
Nevermind the style biases; I despise the "Anime isn't art" arguments and how they try to force a style onto the learners as if they're superior for being 'traditional' or 'realistic'. I'm a person who does push for the fundamentals because they can be applied to all styles in some way; learn the rules to then break the rules and all that. Technical skill is not the same as style, in my book.
So, that being said, I would really love to revisit those streams one day soon, if the interest is still there. I'm planning to open a discord server for it where I can host the small-scale streams until I get a platform open for larger audiences; I'm thinking Twitch, but my set up isn't really good for that, and I need a certain amount of watch time/followers on Tiktok and Youtube (for some stupid reason) so while I figure that out, discord is better than nothing. VODs could be made or uploaded to Youtube later for review until I make proper edited stuff, but that's much later.
I just really miss offering help because art should be accessible and no one should feel isolated in the "you should know by now" bubble simply because their living situation or environment didn't afford them the time or resources to sit and draw all day, every day and teach themselves where classes failed or assumed they knew what they were dong already. Also, that live feedback can help a lot and allow others to run at their own pace instead of getting steamrolled by the 'natural talent' as I can repeat or revisit something and answer questions in real-time (as much as I'm able).
So if that's something that seems fun or interesting, I'd leave it open to any age (behave yourselves) to come learn; if I get enough interest I'll start making the discord and think of a schedule plan, but for now it's an idea!
Thank you for dropping by!

I'm gonna be honest, I'm tired of respecting other people's views on art. If you're an AI artist, I'm literally just going to unapologetically be mean to you, unless you're a child who doesn't know any better. I don't care if you have the talent of a worn out shoe, I would rather see work done by your own hands than by an AI generator that uses artwork from other artists without their consent. In fact, I honestly think AI art is ugly as hell and jankier than anything an actual person could ever draw.
