All it takes to be good is repetition, gotta hone those drawing muscles. :P I don't even consider myself to be that good by professional standards, I can't do super realistic really or any of those fancy complex digital paintings but I'm pretty good at weird, fantasy stylized shit and anthro characters, all traditional media.
I pretty much got good by drawing constantly, ever since I was young. Push yourself to draw something every day. Try different experiments to hone your style; drawing with your non dominant hand is really fun. Try more challenging subjects just to push yourself and refine. I'd say it'd be cool to see some color but that really depends what style you're going for, I've been doing a lot of painting and my prof is out there when it comes to themes and color use. XD
Thanks for all the advice! I've tried doing more challenging things in the past but it aggrivates me sometimes lol. I'm also very terrible at anything realistic. Do you post your art anywhere?
Yeah, though I don't have a lot of my newer stuff posted yet. www.furaffinity.net/user/ileavebitemarks has a lot of my older work, though I didn't post everything there since it's more a site for anthro specific art.

I just made this recently, that's some of my shit from fall 2 years ago, I'm getting ready to update it with all my new stuff though.
Opinions on my art?

You have a very vibrant art style. I'm curious to see how it's evolved if that's from two years ago.
