Going to have to sit down with Mr. Stan Kelly and explain to him he's too damned horny for the toons he draws.

Unfortunately, being horny for the stuff you draw is the fastest way to get better at drawing.

yea

I've been learning for a bit now and when I practice with something horny I pay much closer attention and use a lot more care

Jokes aside, the best way to get better at art really is just practice.

...Which is why all the horny artists are so good; they're motivated so they practice more.

(If you'd like some actual advice, focus on getting fast over getting good. Once you're fast you can just do more practice faster, and quickly overtake anyone who focused on being good first.)

(...Also if you're fast enough you can crank out something serviceable between starting to feel horny and needing to get off. Oh no the horny artists keep winning.)

That's all pretty good advice; thanks!

If that was true, all the middle and highschoolers that draw dicks and boobs all over their desks would be incredible artists by now.

The purpose of drawing a cartoon dick on your desk isn't titillation, it's to make your friends laugh.

Seeking social approval is very low on the list of ways to get better at drawing.

also you don't need to get good at drawing to do cartoon dicks. In fact if they're too good they would make people uncomfortable
