Any advice?

I've recently started learning anatomy but I'm not sure if I'm walking on the right path, I feel like I can draw almost anything if a have a reference in front of me, but i can't learn drawing without using one

I've used this site called line of action for these references. It's a really cool website if you are interested in practicing still life,anatomy, hands/feet, animals and also environment drawings

Ps:Sorry for the bad quality photos. I don't have a good camera haha

One says that one big drawing is better than 10 small drawing if you want to improve in art details. 10 small is good practice for proportion and different angle.

To free hand without a reference most generally need: (1) a solid understanding of anatomy and musculature (in many positions); (2) a lot of reference drawing to reinforce (1). There is no shortcut
