oooh boy i agree... i do daily drawings and you can see the improvement, in 45 days i got soooooo much better at figure-drawing, now i'm learning shading... it's important that you share your drawings everyday so on top of having a boost to willpower with likes you can go back in time and see the improvement... do what Ilya Kuvshinov does, do at least one drawing and post it... you make it in a habit really fast, you will have a deadline everyday and simple steps instead of planing big things, i do stuff i'm not comfortable with every other day, you get good fast! :P

Something I learned recently is that distinction between learning skills and creating art means that you need to be allowing yourself to just create something just as often as you are practicing skills, and even try to combine them when possible. Learning to draw was always daunting and even boring because I was just doing exercises over and over rather than doing what actually made me want to learn art in the first place. Now that I'm primarily just creating the images I want to create whether they are good or not, but setting aside time for practice and exercises every now and again, it brings me joy like it used to when I was a kid.

I suspect you are right. I'm making the mistake of starting the same place getting so far and no progress. Give up. Leave too big a gap before going back. Same start, worse results. Give up. Guess I just need to be determined to push through. Planning and going to places I haven't managed to get to before irrespective of how I think I'm doing. Being judgmental about my own poor skills is my biggest handicap.

I'm applying an interesting way to keep habits and that is attaching/combining them together. In my case I'm learning about body flexibility/mobility which implies understanding the muscles and joints, and combining that with drawing them has been really helpful to keep both up.

I love your analyses of the learning process! I've learned many diverse skills over the decades, and yes - I've hit that demoralising gap between knowledge and skill every single time. But I've overcome it every time. I've tried to explain to giving-up friends that they're measuring the wrong thing - the progress is in how many xyz exercises or attempts they do each day, not in how many results they like. I'll most certainly be following your guidance on this new skill of drawing.

I really needed this. I had begun trying to improve my art again around november of last year. I practiced anatomy and tried learning new things but sometimes i felt like my drawings came out worse than before. It was really disheartening and there were times i wanted to give up. Little did I know i notice that my art goes through like a little puberty so once i started practicing and sticking to it to the T I finally started seeing that improvement jump. Seeing this video makes me feel a lot better because this is roughly kind of how my art improvement went.

You can do even 15 min! As long as during the whole time you're drawing, you're fully focused, constantly analyzing and observing. I recommend 2 hours a day for a manageable work balance. Optimally 4h/d and you're going to progress very quickly. You don't also have to always draw. You can also watch videos, read drawing books, observing the world etc. Anything that turns your "drawing brain" on.

Try to do a little bit every day, if you can. Some days I dont feel inspired to draw at all, and that’s ok, creative inspiration isnt something you can force. It comes in waves. I will tell myself, “ok, im just gonna doodle for 2, 5, or 10 minutes” and sometimes that is enough for me to get some ideas going. You don’t always have to be drawing to learn how to draw, either. Observing things and thinking about how to draw them is actually more important than drawing them!

I've heard this from several art instructors now. You say that there is a "eureka" moment or that something "just clicks," but I have never experienced this. I used to draw all the time but then quit because I was suddenly responsible for my own nutrition and didn't want to starve. I came close. So now that I finally have a stable life I got back into drawing. While I have made clear improvements, I've never had an "aha!" moment, which is very disappointing. For two years now I have been slowly improving my drawing skills, picking up from where I left off in my high school years. But it's been a slow burn with a gradual line. Things have picked up in skill advancement after making a schedule for study, but I never feel like my skill fluctuates wildly, or at least not as wild as is portrayed by your explanation. About a year ago I was really counting on that "eureka" moment to give me more motivation after seeing a quick and dramatic improvement in my skill, but it has never happened. In time, I simply found other little victories to keep me motivated, usually fueled by my social groups. I guess what I'm saying is you shouldn't be waiting on or relying on seeing your improvement in bursts and using that as a motivator. Your skill may be a slow climb the whole way. The climb has gotten easier the more I practice.

You need to rid your mind of the notion of perfection. It doesn't exist. A very wise person once said to me: strive for excellence, not perfection. This is what finally freed my mind. Excellence as a goal means that every day that you apply yourself, as long as you do so diligently, will advance your skills. Some days your drawings may not be great, but if it contributes to your goal of excellence, then it was valuable. Sometimes you do a drawing and parts of it are great and other parts are not. Focus on the excellent parts and then work on the not so excellent aspects in future drawings. Another approach is to take the thing that you are worst at and make it your best thing. This takes a lot of balls to confront head on, but by mastering your worst thing, you free yourself from fear.

Great video. I'm taking a very similar approach this year. I'm going to be drawing for three hours each day, splitting that time between two topics. For instance, today I'm doing 1.5 hours of figure drawing with Proko premium (your channel is also a great resource), and 1.5 hours of portraiture/head study with Proko premium. Every month, I'll be replacing one topic with another. I have already been following this structure for 3 months, pretty much every day, and I'm pleased with the progress I've made. I'll gradually be moving through the following topics this year: - Figure drawing - Clothed figure drawing - Perspective - Portraiture/the head - Anatomy: torso - Anatomy: arms and hands - Anatomy: legs and feet - Anatomy: imagination - Colour and light - Character design - Panting - Caricature I don't expect to be a great artist at the end of the year, but I do think that, with commitment, I can reach a basic level of competence in each area.

Why did I assume I would be able to draw bugs as we as faces when I have almost no experience drawing bugs? I disrespected the complexity of bugs and the fact that each species is different. My next set of sketches will focus on just one type and then i will learn much faster.

This is so inspiring! I’m definitely going to check out your course. I’ve started doing speed drawings everyday for 15 minutes and I have been practicing gesture as well. It get’s daunting when there is so much information out there, though. I don’t even know where to begin sometimes. My biggest fear is learning something wrong and never correcting it because I don’t have someone to correct me. 😔

Honestly I wish you left the tracking document below because this is golden. I started my focused practice this month. Every day I will draw at least 5 figures with the LSF method, paying keen attention to angles and proportions. By the end of the month, I should have over 90 drawings, as well as the ability to draw better bodies and proportions from my head. I'm just tired of feeling like I'm not good enough. While I'll still have creative sessions where I just draw for fun, 50% of the other time will be studies and deliberate practice. Not sure what I'm going to do for September yet. Hm... Maybe back to anatomy (I love it) or values.

i agree with this topic. i started drawing with a goal of drawing characters frm any angle. my first drawing for the first year were pretty lifeless and lacked shading and gesture. it looked like 2nd graders drew in my sketchbook lol i was learning a lot but my skills didnt reflect. my skill caught up around year 2. Now im drawing realistic drawings that look exactly like the pictures and my perspective(original goal) is so good now. im still improving but i can draw characters at any angle without reference if i have none. to anyone reading this never give up i really wanted to give up, especially at year one like one month in.. now i get paid to draw and digitally paint for people.

I draw something then totally delete it, and redo it all over. Usually I draw it way better. For this month Im working on anatomy and dynamic of the body. Because thats my biggest stryggle. I dont set a time limit or amount of day. I just go with how I feel

My problem that always gets me down is not enough time in the day to practice. I tried 15 minutes for a few months straight and I did see improvement but like you said, I got to that point where it seems like I'm bad and gave up. 2021 we're getting back on that bike and riding it!

I've spent 2 while years just doing gestures and nothing else, and it's now that I've realised how much I lack, moreover I wanna pass the entrance exam of a college I wanna get into and I have only one and a half year so I wanna improve really quickly.

this came at such a perfect time for me, thank you!!! I have been struggling for months to figure out how to plan my study time and have so much trouble focusing on one area because I get overwhelmed by ALL of the things I need to improve. I finally decided this month to just buckle down and focus on perspective. I feel so validated hearing the same strategy from you!!

I'm definitely at that stage right now. The process has never been as frustrating as now, and I'm certain it's because I have the "knowledge" but not the skill like you've said. I'm trying to learn the structure of the nose in terms of it's planes. It's so hard to draw from different angles that I think I should stop and just practice more perspective.

i have an incredible desire to learn how to draw and huge regret that i haven't started drawing when i was little and my mind was pure and unsoiled by perfectionism and negativity. So the more I hear about how much of technical stuff you have to learn and know to learn to draw makes me anxious and frustrated to actually do it. Yeah, i know it's one of those things where you have to love the process as much as the goal itself, so that's why it pains me so much wanting to draw, yet hating the process of... drawing.

I regret not learning any skills when i was younger, like drawing. But at some point in your life you have to say "Fuck it!". pick up that frickin pencil, find something you love, and just DO IT! Stop letting fear stand in your way. I went almost all my life telling myself i cant do it. But after one week of absolute hell and no electronics to keep me sane, I picked up a pencil and paper, and after just a little bit of focus and willpower, that shattered the delusion i have been hoarding all my life. Its been 5 years since then, but i still make very many mistakes and i still have a lot of work to do. But after seeing just what i have done alone reassures me that talent is indeed something you can learn and pursue. Take your time. Be mindful and willing to learn from your failures. Learn from everyone, not just the best.

Rn I'm just jumping around. Basically in an entire day I go between heads, poses, perspective, anatomy, hands. I personally find this works better since I spot something I'm bad at and then instead of waiting to finish a month of drawing something else I just fix that issue. Btw I'm about intermediate when it comes to my skills. Can someone please point out why this is a wrong method of doing this if it is?

Very inspiring and interesting !! But : learning body gesture is a very hard topic that should not be learned in the beginnings. Face or body is the hardest in drawing. We should start with simple topics like objects or poses with large clothing, nature landscape.
