Oh that's a tough one to answer haha. I didn't really practice anything in specific, art wasn't my career goal so I just drew for fun. My most vague general advice would just be to draw often and make sure that it's varied enough, make leaving your comfort zone a fun challenge for yourself instead of forcing it like a boring lesson: look for inspiration in many different artists, study the media you admire, find drawing prompts that you normally wouldn't think of, do your quick blorbo doodles to train the gesture plasticity but also participate in stuff like zines and secret santas that encourage making finished pieces and facing new challenges. I think as long as you can avoid stagnation in what you draw and continue feeling some whimsy about the creation of art, it will keep growing and evolving :)
Hi! I saw in a previous comment that you said you were mostly self taught, would you mind sharing on what you practiced to improve your art?
