Ubem's Deliberate Practice
#32
I know as an artist we see great things for ourselves and tend to reflect negatively on our process but please, you're far from a beginner. Your art already shows a decent understanding of fundamentals and that's important for any artist who seeks constant improvement. Lacking confidence and selling your skillset short will only hold you back, I guarantee. It's great to reflect on the skills you need to improve on and never forget an artist's journey is never finished but you also should tell yourself "I like what I'm doing". It's good to constantly count our wins and losses with our work and becoming more confident with the things you do excel at will help you move onto things you don't.

I see you tend to avoid rendering parts you may not be comfortable with. This is fine with quick gesture work but I wouldn't consider many of the pieces here finished. Do a figure and do not avoid rendering any parts even if there are glaring issues. Do it just to do it even if you don't think it's good enough to show off, but also show it off anyways because people will direct you on what you need to work on. Definitely continue to work on your hands and feet and facial expressions.
