I am not an artist or artistic in the least... if I triied to draw a line, it would probably look like a "U" or maybe an "S".

Because of this maybe, or despite it, I was really impressed with the Penciljack website and forum and how it was set up to help artists at any and all skill levels develope and improve their abilities and works.

Check out their site and see if there is anything there that might be of help to you...

The main thing is to keep drawing and practise practise practise.

It may look bad at 1st but with time and effort you will improve.
There are plenty of "how to draw" books and web sites - try looking on google.

If this may help, take a photo or drawing of anything and draw it, visual aid helps alot and is good to practise with.
To get cat features right on my characters i got a cat book and draw the photos in the book which I am now quite good at.

Learning any skill takes time and effot - keep drawing and you will improve.
