I normally think about my sculptures and drawings obsessively while I’m bored at work. I don’t really draw much anymore after trying sculpting. Might switch to a different style or form of art to rekindle interest and get ideas flowing.

I would say getting it out of your head and onto paper is a good strategy for any artistic practice. You might find a way to incorporate sketching into the preliminary stages of a sculpture!

Great advice, especially where you said to “never stop”. I decided to commit to the artists path when I was 14 and already understood the power of practice. To draw every day, whether I feel like it or not, for at least 10 minutes a day lends to better and faster progression than waiting until I felt in the mood to draw or drew once in a while for longer sessions. This attitude sent me in the right direction for pursuing my ambition of becoming a professional artist and 3 years later I started taking commissions. Logo designs, tattoo flash designs, school newspaper art turned into local newspaper editorial illustration and sequential art for Black Belt magazine during my senior year of high school. The more we do, the better we get and the real challenge isn’t landing the gig, it’s keeping the gig. Return customers are the best and if they truly like your work, not only will they come back for more art and give you more money, they also network for you and refer you more potential clients. Thanks for you transparency and sharing your gold knowledge with this stellar content.

I accidentally stumbled across this video and I'm so glad I di. As an old man now I feel as if I need a creative outlet. Like you I would draw a ton as a kid but now not so much. But if I can grab a little free time and think today's the day I'm gonna draw. Staring at a blank page nowadays just brings out all my insecurities. So I'll tell myself I'm looking online for reference material and by the end of it I'm no longer looking for what I originally started to search for and the moment for me has passed. I personally think that getting back into art will help me out mentally and my overall well being. I think these ideas are great for someone like me to try and get my foot in the door so to speak. I guess now it's all down to me but I'd like to say Thank you for taking the time to share your path and the Pro tips. I'm along for the journey.

Lots of great ideas here, thank you. I thought of a few variations... you suggested drawing a lyric from a song, which I love... perhaps drawing scenes from whatever book/novel you're currently reading, or from the Bible... good grief, drawing your way through every verse in the Bible? That's a lifetime of ideas there, lol.... Also, if you like to write your own stories (like I do), then illustrating your own work might be cool as well. As far as using older drawings as sketches for new iterations, I recall writing a fun children's play for Christmas one year, which we performed.... and then ten years later, for the anniversary, I re-wrote it, adding characters and scenes, and cast many of the same actors, who originally were children in the first play, as the adult characters in the newer play.... it was very cool. Perhaps it's the same dynamic? Anyways, glad I found your channel. I look forward to spelunking through your video archive....
