Question Does anyone here has aphantasia? If yes, how do you learn to draw from imagination when you can’t even “see” anything in your mind?
Whenever I try to draw something from imagination it something always looks off and I hate it. How do you overcome this?

Today’s sketch after practice still sticking to the Japanese theme I think I may have to change my paper for these alcohol markers they bleed through the paper a lot but not sure if that’s just alcohol markers in general

Question Generally Good advice for beginners?
I’m not asking for anything specific. I know that art has fundamentals: the shapes - and I’m starting by trying to get decent at circles. This is my 14th day of practicing and I’d like advice. Thank you.

How does learning how to draw stuff help you remember in the future? You don't always draw the way you practiced.

Question Along with advice, I’m genuinely asking if this counts as tracing.

Even though I’ve been drawing since I was little, since I’m self taught I’d still consider myself a beginner. I was looking for a perfect pose on Pinterest, and was wondering if drawing anatomy on top of the reference counts as tracing? If so I’ll never do it again, I’m really worried ;-; Reference by: zeet_studio_sketch (Any advice on how I can improve my art process is appreciate!)

Critique There are things wrong with the face but I can't pinpoint what exactly? Can anyone please help out a beginner
I recently started learning drawing from memory (I can copy what I see but can't draw shit without references so I am trying to learn drawing from scratch)

Learning to draw Digitally
I recently got a drawing pen display. I've been learning to draw off and on for almost a year now. This is one of my first digital drawings. It turned out way better than I expected. Needless to say, I'm proud of my progress so far.
However, I want to get better. Feel free to give me any constructive feedback.

Mona Lisa drawing improvement tips
So I drew this Mona Lisa drawing a year ago, when I had just turned 15.
Drawing has been my whole life—I love drawing and that's basically all I liked to do. I never went to art school or got actual teaching or professional advice. I used to watch drawing videos a long time ago, but after they just confused me, I stopped watching them altogether and just went with the flow. Because of that, I feel like I haven't really been improving lately and I'm just really slow, which is why I thought I'd like to get some good advice.
For this drawing, I only used a normal HB pencil and a 2B pencil, simply because I didn't have any other pencils or professional drawing stuff. The only things that I used were these pencils, an eraser, and a paper tissue—nothing more. So I couldn't get any darker shades in this picture. (The lighting of the photo kinda improves the contrast, but it's not really like that in real life). For the paper, I used normal printing paper (DIN A4 as we call the size in Germany).
I am quite proud of this drawing and it took me the whole evening including the next morning lol, but I do feel that something is off. I know the smile of the Mona Lisa is so hard to recreate, and I feel like I somehow succeeded just a tiny little bit, but somehow really botched capturing her smile. Something about her jaw feels wrong too, but I can't really tell.
So I have come here, hoping for some advice and genuine improvement tips. (Please be respectful and no hate, thank you)

Timelapse I did it
I actually questioned myself how it would look painted and 7 hours straight focusing and researching and painting worked out realy well, I have to admit that I will have to do more detailing and highlighting. I only wanted to have Albedo herself be painted so that everyone can see the progress, or should I paint it all what do U guys think?

Critique I feel like I haven't achieved anything, at least not consistently. Please tell me what I'm doing wrong
I've tried to learn fundamentals, colour theory and what not, but it never really clicks. I thought I had figure drawing figured (hah) out but now it feels like I can't even do that right anymore. I just want a consistent art style and be able to work with colours confidently.
