Hi, i just learned coding not long ago and i'm currently working on my first game for IOS. But i have no background in art design what so ever, so i'm asking is there a free source that could provide me with some 2D sprites to work with ( nothing fancy or anything ) , or is there an easy way(tool) to learn to draw 2D sprites in like a week or something ( no 8-bit ).

Thank You all.

opengameart.org should have everything you need for free sprites.
If you want to draw your own then try:

Inkscape is a free tool, very easy to use;

Some tutorials that I myself find useful (teaches you art tips whilst also teaching you how to use the tools in inkscape :) )

Good luck!

Thank you guys, i'm going to give Inkscape a try looks amateur friendly and those tutorials are simple enough to get anyone starting.

You might find that as your game becomes more popular, real artists offer to help you so you can do away with your "programmer art". Some might want money, some might just want to be in the credits while others will draw for you just for the fun of it.

I find this has happened to me several times, with games and with apps. Keep your eye out, and make sure your game is playable and well known on these and other forums, and help will quite likely flock to you.

Good luck!
