late but, i think we hate our art simply because we can see how much better we could be in our head. i dont remember the name of the sculptor, but there was this story about a sculptor being so hard on his pieces that most of their final pieces were very slim in consequence of him taking clay out all of the time he found a detail unsatisfying. i think in order to progress, artists still have to complete their pieces to have a final judgement and to know where to take off from there but it's still very unsatisfying most of the time and it happens that some just stay in an endless loophole of never finishing a piece because they aren't satisfied. perfectionism 101 really

I’m glad I watched this, because recently I’ve been drawing things I’m used to drawing rather than trying a dynamic pose or a side profile. I’ve been working on a piece with 7 different characters, all with different poses at different angles and it has taken me WAY too long, but most of the process has been practicing drawing arms, legs, hands, head shapes, angles, etc. But I’ve managed to get out of my comfort zone and I’m pretty happy with how it’s turned out so far. It’s different from my usual pieces and it looks great, even though it’s not perfect, but I’m glad I’m improving.

I relate with the struggling with stylization one. What I hate is that sometimes it's almost subconscious. Like you get a reference, you draw, and realize you made it too realistic. It almost feels like edging having to stop yourself from doing more on your work when your body is screaming to do more 😭 Also this feeling like you downgraded because u used to draw more but now you're drawing a character with a few strokes, a few shades (The art style I like is like that), it's frustrating but it's also enjoyable once you get to do them 😭♥️ Art is such a rollercoaster ride

“a never ending journey of learning” is the perfect way to describe art but not only visual art, it’s the description of every type of art, whether it is making music or being professional in a martial art u will always learn. It might be hard or maybe annoying to continue learning over and over again but u can even learn to appreciate learning. It’s something I have learned not long ago but never really got to say it to anyone and the fact that Sam made a whole video about it makes me feel really happy because it’s important to know and to never give up. ❤

Like you said this happens pretty much to all artists. In my case, I used to draw comics and because of that my artwork was sort of stylized. When I decided to start doing more pinup and illustration I was doing in that style mixed with some Patrick Nagel kind of stuff, after that I went more vintage comic book style but eventually kind of got bored of it. I reached a point where I felt I didn't know what else to do with it (outside of commissions and my own comic) and also I was starting to like painting more. So know I'm doing more painting (digital and traditional) which is challenging but kind of fun. Now this did made me loose some followers on twitter but made some new ones on instagram and facebook.

Thank you for making this! You're 100% right, I just wanted to add a small thing i found helps me working as a freelance artist. I have clients that expect the same style from me all the time and its a more realistic style, but Ive always felt drawn to stylistic approaches. Its been about 3 years that ive been working realistically, always feeling conflicted because I am good at realistic but really find it demotivating to not express myself in the style I want to. I realized recently that personal stylized art isnt just something i should do from time to time but is something i NEED to do in order to still feel motivated to do my freelance work. Its freeing not just being able to do art in the style i want, but also to know its just for me and no one else. I don't actually think id enjoy doing freelance in a more stylized way, I enjoy having the freedom to explore what I want to. So for any working artist out there remember to do things for only yourself sometimes, even just a 30 minute warm up before working :)

I've learned to show my work to other people because I've learned that some of the pieces of work that I do which I am not happy with or think is 'bad' (relatively speaking) are the pieces that many people think are my better pieces. Even though it doesn't change my mind of the piece that I did, I do ask questions of what they liked about the piece and what they didn't like in order to learn what it is that makes them think the piece is better than the pieces of art that I've done which I think are better pieces. I've learned alot about my own drawings, style of drawing, my weaknesses and strengths, and what others see in my pieces. It has helped me to grow more confident even if I don't think a piece is worth the time spent....there is aways something to learn.

I still find it so crazy that artists I idolise also feel this way. I’m personally trying to become an artist, it’s my passion I had to stifle because of family and life restraints, so I couldn’t even get any teaching on it. I’m trying to make a go of it now but sometimes my motivation is gone, I worry all the time about every piece I try to do. But now I’m slowly starting to feel better about it since I found my wife who supports my passion and since I started watching Sam. I hope we can all get through things like this and hope Sam starts to feel better too

Thank you, Sam. Sincerely.. It helps quite a lot mentally, to realize that we're not alone going through these phases

Hi Sam! I love your videos, thank you for sharing your perspective. It is very helpful to hear from someone who has more experience. I wanted to mention at 4:40 you made a comment about OCD. As someone who has OCD, it is a very debilitating disorder, often misunderstood, and not as common as people think. I would really appreciate if you could use another term in future. Just sharing this because the more people understand, the easier it is for those affected to receive appropriate treatment. Thanks so much :)
