Thanks man. Dude, I fucking HATED and was AWFUL at drawing from images (one probably causes the other) but then I just sucked it up and tried doing it more.
I started off tracing photos in Photoshop (I really had some issues seeing the negative shapes and getting them right, and still do), and tracing seems to help at the very least building confidence. I helps a LOT, especially if you are struggling with imaginary concepts, which I still am.
Definitely try it if you feel that it would help. It's definitely helped me. I started just tracing photos and filling in value, and then moved on to doing grayscale self portraits and photo-drawing silly comedians.
WOAH! Awesome!
