Art has many connections and branches but let's settle on with creativity and imagination.

Drawing

Drawing has many connections too. You can draw human figures, animal figures even things like flowers and houses. Every artist starts like an empty bottle. As time goes by, more and more idea and improvements come in. So try getting a paper and a pencil, make sure you have some eraser. What do you like to draw? Do you like fantasy? Try drawing human figure but not to realistic. Try drawing chibi(Those big headed anime with small body) They are cute but you can make them looking like a badass, minimizing the cuteness effect lol.
If human figure is not your style, try to draw things, copy things or search stuffs you wanna draw. If you need help just search the channels I gave you before( Mark Crilley, Sophiechan etc.)
Note: If figures are the ones you wanna draw, I always use guide lines.
- Don't press the pencil too hard, what's wrong with you, you mad?
- Always use light pressure for sketches, just don't do it so light, you need to see what you're doing dude.
Painting

Can you see this awesome painting? Even it looks like, you just splash the colors, it still... looks awesome. We call it abstract, or arts like this without any figure in it, just random things and/or colors. In my opinion this is the most easiest, if you wanna make it simple, it's easy.
Painting is a kind of coloring style(get it?) There are so many ways how to color something but painting is one of it. It's one of the easiest to blend the colors(coz it's liquid)
Color Pencil

Color pencil, kinda common. But if you use it right, well it's awesome. You can visit Polaar's channel for color pencil creation even Sophiechan and Mark Crilley. There are many ways how to use the color pencil, just google it and you'll know it.
For me, most of use know to colo but having trouble to draw. How about study how to color?
There are so many ways on how to color your drawings, like using copic markers but that's too expensive, even I, I have no idea how can I earn money to buy some. But now let's move to the digital age.
Graphic

These is an example of a graphic drawing. Although you need to use a graphic tablet, you can save alot of money. What's good about it, is that you can redo, undo the things you did. Hope we can redo and undo the things we did on reality. Also the person who drew this doesn't use any graphic tablet, just a mouse.

You can also edit pictures, for example, editing a book cover. Editing is just easy, in here. My friend search png format pictures then just edit it on Photoshop

Found somewhere around the Google atmosphere |
Even quotes! I know this will not work that well on making money but now you have a hobby. If you want to make a living on it, make a printing shop. Sell t-shirts with your quotes in it. Or post your quotes and sayings online!

Blood splatter, done by me |
Even abstract can be on digital. I got some random brushes on the portable Photoshop my teacher gave. I enjoy using that brush so I decided to do random paints using the color red and black(fav colors!)
Another example
Photography

And these pictures are all founded in google! Even your pet can be the model. Try getting a camera, don't have money? I can feel you... use your phone!. Then just edit it. You can search tips on how to use the camera like a pro... I have no many knowledege about it. We all know the "Focus" while taking a photo right? You want to focus the camera to get a good snap. Then just edit it using some apps like photoshop.
Crafting
Don't throw those cans and tissue paper cups. You can create something on it! You can search on google "Craft ideas" and you can see bunch of photos like these. There are so many crafting idea on youtube. Check threadbangers! They made so many videos about crafting, sewing and designing. DIY in short.
Clay moldeling and sculpting

Creation by CharieAnn |
Delicious, it's clay... can't eat it(like I can eat some) Maybe you have some talent with clay. We use to play the clay when we're still kids but these things. You can sell them, or just hang it somewhere. They use polymer clay so you can bake it and make it as a charm. You can look for tutorials in youtube, bunch of tutorials out there. Or if you are gifted, you can mold something easily.
Actually there's more things but let's stop here. Always try new things because life is to short to do nothing. And if you feel tired, listen to a music that makes you on a bouncy mood. Mine are Fantastic baby by Bigbang, bang bang and some sleeping with sirens songs, can't forget crimson boys and arrows by Link Horizon and deeper deeper by ONEOKROCK. My next blog, about music :)
