    I think the only thing limiting me from making uber-leet h4x0r art is my drawing skills.

    Frankly, they suck. If I could draw/paint etc really well I could channel my feelings better.

    How can I get into drawing more? What sort of classes are there?

    Any help appreciated.

    i think practise is the only thing you need in order to learn to draw...
    i am curently busy with a project, i only use photoshop, so it isn't a real drawing, but the thing is, i never drawed before in photoshop, but now that i am trying, i see that i get better every day.

    About ideas and inspiration, well that is something you can't learn. I think one of the requirements is that you have a very active/levely imagination. Things that work for me, are taking a walk, look at nature and birds. watch sunrises/sunsets and look at all the details.

    i am quite sure that this isn't much help, but at least i tried lol.

    practice is the only way
    the more you practice the better your get
    one thing you have to remember is that ... drawing comes more naturally to some people where others have to work harder ..
    if it comes naturally for you then great if not then the only advice someone can give you is to not give up and to just keep trying..
    art classes will help you in tips on how to plan your page out
    my suggestion to you would be to do a general art and design class . This pretty much covers all general art skills from textiles to art history to still life.
    if you really want to draw your drive will keep you going only thing i can say is dont give up :)

    Look at drawings and copy them. By copying you learn how to draw.
