a new artist, in an interesting world

[MicmasH]

Hello there! I am somewhere past the stage of being an absolute beginner, and I get anatomy, I understand proportions well enough, and perspective is a breeze - but what I really want to do is level up my art. My sister is an amazing artist, and she naturally understands things but I have had to learn everything the hard way, from the ground up. Due to bad habits I have almost exclusively only ever drawn with a pencil, using no color or even shading whatsoever. Well, I want to change that, maybe even make a career out of art if I can. But I don't know where to start (on the art side, not the career). I will share some of my sketches here eventually, not tonight but I'll get to it.

Anyways that's mostly why I'm here. I would appreciate any advice or pointers, I realize art forums are kinda slow (people are here for the art, not chatting), especially compared to something like, say GBATemp

anyways, that's it, have a nice day.
