I saw this scene in a dream. I thought it was somber, but pretty!

Looks like a dog. Unfortunately it's nearly impossible to nail down a specific breed.

Aaww, i was really kinda hoping it that it might be a wolf pup, even it was pretty far fetched..! guess i have to take yall word for this :’’DD Thank both of you..!
i kept bumping into you at hallowmas last night, just found your tumblr from the tag! i'm ali, youre cute, and im dumb and wished i said hi or something in person
Ah, I helped you down from the stage! Yeah people should say hi to me lol.
a guy i work with had someone order a no-foam cappuccino. i couldnt make this up.
I know you're not making it up! I've had that happen to me before!
aah its okay, im having trouble with words right now as well! i figured id look at a bunch of those expression memes on dA and try to draw them simplified and try to go from there
Thats a good idea! I think really the best way to do it is to look at what other people have done in terms of stylistic choices, and learn from what you see. Realism is about looking and translating that into drawing, so looking at cartoony style artwork will also be using that same part of your brain, so it's a bit of a better transition into learning how to draw cartoony again :)
I'm the opposite of you, I really need to work on realism, whereas cartooning is my forte. However when someone asks me to draw a likeness of an actor, I usually look at how other cartoonists have drawn that actor, to get a sense of how they re-create the likeness in their style. What they choose to keep and what they choose to leave out are important when drawing in a cartoony style.
I think the biggest difference between drawing realism and drawing cartoony is making the artistic choice in terms of what is necessary to keep when you draw an object. That's why using reference is so important. I've drawn household objects before that just don't look like the object at all. It isn't until I use a reference I realize one key detail was what I needed to push my drawing from 'sorta looking like an alarm clock' to 'that's an alarm clock'.
Does that make sense? I hope this all helps haha.
my issue is a good mix of both, but thank you!
Ok! Ill keep an eye out for tutorials that can help you trasition from realism > cartoony, and I'll continue to think on it c: Its 2am here so sorry if my last answer wasn't as good as it could have been xP Im sleepy.
any tips on going from realism to stylized art? i used to be able to draw whatever i could think of, but after a couple years of life drawing i feel like i literally cannot draw anything unless its in front of me. my art teachers always said that you have to learn realism before you focus on style, and i agree, but i feel like its sucked all the creativity out of me and i dont know how to combine realism with imagination. thank you!!
Hmmm... well is your problem drawing cartoony? Or is your problem drawing from your head?
It sounds like your problem is drawing from your head, in which case I would just say practice!! Try our #Prompts tag for some ideas. You can also look around at art in general and look at different styles. Don't be afraid to emulate someone elses style ( FOR YOUR OWN PRACTICE ) until you get the hang of drawing cartoony again :) GL!
