Re: How do people draw things?

As a first year art student, USE A REFERENCE TO LEARN EVERYTHING
Pictures, anatomy books, everything helps but honestly, doing things from life are the best teachers of all.

http://posemaniacs.com Is a really good resource for practicing figures

deviantart also has a ton of stock reference photos.

Also, everything you learn to draw isn't just knowing from looking, it's experience built up from every time you draw that thing- for example, I know the planes of the face well enough to guess at the shading and approximate locations of features- halfway down the face for eyes, halfway between the eyes and chin is the septum, half between septum and chin is the mouth etc.
Good luck!
