You can, you can! First rule is to be okay with drawing a bunch of stuff that looks awful, and to do it a lot. Every single thing you draw, no matter how fugly it turns out adds more information both to how you conceptualize what you're doing and to muscle memory and pencil control.
I don't have any public bookmarks. I jump from site to site to tutorial to tutorial to book to book because my learning style is really scattered (if I try to follow one guide/tutorial/book for 'how to do x' I end up getting frustrated and discouraged and I'm never quite sure what kind of explanation will lead to the AHA, THAT IS HOW YOU DO IT moment)
I think I mentioned this before, but if there's *one* book you should absolutely without a doubt get it's Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain. It will change how you think about what you see and how you see it in ways that will blow your mind.
