Hi Andrew, Your 10,000 hour sketch endeavour is a wonderful commitment. To me it serves to change who you are, how you use your time, your habitual self. It will be come automatic and it will bring mastery. The number of hours is not what it's about and serves to create a goal that is open-ended. I am going to join on but am not quite ready to commit schedule-wise.... I'm glad to have come across your endeavour and you inspire me... thank you.

[@barbarastalick5621]

Listening to you chatter while drawing has inspired me. I'm 80 years old and am loosing my sight which has gotten in the way of doing portraits, but i do have hope with landscapes. Watching you sketch has opened a new hope for me. I can see values better than color and am looking forward to going back to drawing. Ten thousand hours will be my goal, if I live that long, and I'm looking to the future. After all, isn't that what life is all about.

[@lkwright9807]

l like this very much. It has made restart my sketching . After the 10,000 hours of practice l will be 102 years old ,but here l go to the goal. Thank you Andrew

[@AndrewTischlerArt]

Way to go LK! Get into it! That's the spirit!

[@brucemaatta5859]

I needed this one too

[@cherrypalomino8209]

[@charlottehenderson1927]

I COMMIT TOO MORE PRACTICE !! I NEED THIS !! THANK YOU ANDREW !! FOR BEING SO COMMITTED !

[@JacquiJax]

Thank you Andrew, you are really inspiring. They say it takes 21 days to create a habit. This is an excellent way to start, especially for those who find the 10 000 hours daunting. (Ten thousand hours is symbolic! Pretty obvious I think) I believe (and teach) that if it is easy, then you're not learning! Don't get stuck in a rut! You need to push yourself just that little bit harder every time to create or learn something new, different, inspiring. I too am the type who says - "All in ..or why bother!" 10 000 hours... let do this!

[@liveart4allwhopartunity639]

Honesty shows up in so many ways in your video series

[@skunkygrogan4247]

Enjoying the journey is key. If it's drudgery, then find another journey that brings you joy. Thx Andrew! I love the journey.

[@drbob528]

Hi Andrew ... when you have completed a session such as this one, do you ever just sit and listen to it and realise how much information you are actually disseminating? I just watched this session mesmerised (a) by what you were drawing and (b) by what you were saying; for me, the combination of these two inputs is totally absorbing. I haven't been doing artwork full-time for very long ... maybe only a year. But after 60 years of photography combined with 45 years of filmmaking, there's a lot going on in there that I wasn't aware of. So, I suspect that SketchEndeavour can offer far more than the process of improving drawing technique. It is, in effect, a form of therapy that is quite remarkable. For me at least, it improves concentration, stimulates recall, and gives my mind time to just relax. Most importantly, it stimulates brain function generally which is so critical as we age. So, once again, many thanks. I was going to ask about the pencils you use, but that can wait.

[@thetawaves48]

Thank you for your sincerity and generosity.

[@janeturnquist2942]

Andrew, I think you’re paintings are phenomenal, you’re sketches are phenomenal, you’re teachings are phenomenal, I thank you from the bottom of my heart! 💜 I have 23 years under my belt but I’m always learning. You are one of my inspirations as well as “The Artists Way” one of the first books I read on creativity. Can’t thank you enough for your videos they are very good as well as all of your work, by the way, I love horses too!

[@gailcadag4328]

I am 62 yrs. Old ...but very inspired to sketch more the subject i liked....thanks for this video Andrew..God bless u...

[@thetawaves48]

I love your narrative about art. I have found that art is essential for my sanity.

[@osvaldomacedoneto9592]

Hi Andrew, can I give you some of my experience with those materials? A paper with less tooth will allow for a smother transitioning and shadows, just be mindful the paper stump will “damage” the paper so much faster too. And the oils of our skin will definitely make it harder for the graphite or charcoals to adhere or erase if you smudge. Even holding the paper with the other hand on a area yet to be worked on is a bad idea. Now, as I said before, I've been drawing for such a long time, but always for my own enjoyment, never professionally and without consistency, so I feel really far away from being a master, and that’s ok for me. But with your amazing skills and will to put up to the challenge, you will get to a incredible level of perfection way sooner than you expect. Don’t bother with mean or clueless comments saying you’re not being honest, they’re probably just jealous about your skill level... Thank you Andrew!

[@AndrewTischlerArt]

Great Advice mate! I will be sure to follow that! Thank you!

[@iggiboi2501]

Osvaldo Macedo Neto 90% haven’t read the whole comment🤣 but I am the 10%

[@williamraymond487]

Andrew Tischler rather then using a blending stump and possibly damaging the paper. Try using paint brushes or cotton swabs. Both do wonders with graphite.

[@corakiart]

William Raymond I tried a cotton swab. Didn’t work. There are various sizes of blending stumps. I find the difference interesting. The smaller sized stump, is harder. The larger ones for some reason is softer. I use for drawing and pastel. I suppose different brands may have different traits, too. In addition the way you hold it makes a difference. Sideways makes a softer mark. Straight on like a pencil makes a harder mark. Or it is just my 10k hours delirium making me crazy.🤪

[@marijamagdalenadilber4501]

@@williamraymond487 I used brushes on charcoal pencils, I find them working better than both blending stumps and cotton swabs, although I haven't tried them on graphite pencils (I used stumps for them)

[@flooklh]

I do like your Sketch Endeavour series. I so agree that if you can commit to a specific time to draw each day, you will see improvement within the first week. It just takes a commitment to do it. You really are a good role model in this regard. Sharing your journey in these videos is so encouraging. Thank you, they're greatly appreciated.

[@tomphillips8565]

You are an outstanding Artist!! I enjoy all your videos so please keep them coming. Thanks so much for sharing your art with us.

[@gc1572]

Thank you so much for setting a good example for all of us. The drive to improve ourselves is one of the best things we can do to make the world better. Much respect.

[@virginiakinzer1948]

I’ve been reading all the comments from a year ago. All of them complimentary. I have been watching you for a longtime and feel the need to tell you I think you are a master artist. At my age (88), I have been painting 60 years, have a degree in art education with 66 graduate hours. And with all that along with gallery sales and portrait commissions, I will never be as good an artist as you are.

[@moiraevans355]

Thank you Andrew for your time, I listened to your podcast with your father and am following your sketchendeavour series,..am very happy to have discovered both, than you once again, from far off Chile.

[@lindapfeifer4886]

Enjoy your tutorials a great deal and learning more about what it takes to do well.

[@frozencancukfinearts]

A level of "competence" is a worthy goal. Knowing and understanding the fundamentals is essential and practice brings the competence. I am happy knowing that I will not ever be the "best" painter; my satisfaction comes from my own delight in my work, my feeling of progress and the compliments I get from those who like my work. Not everyone is going to like my work but as long as I get the respite from the day to day work life painting gives me and my personal realization of improvement I am satisfied. In this case the journey really is the joy, not arriving at a destination.

[@davidturner5295]

Love to see things drawn in ink and coloured pencils too , enjoying this very inspired, thanks Andrew )

I love how the day you have the flu you draw a bad tempered horse! Her ears were pointing backwards, in agreement with your mood. It's amazing and inspirational seeing how you are progressing with your challenge.

[@AnnaMLewis1]

Hello Andrew, I stumbled across your videos while looking for a specific technique on landscape painting. The more I watched your videos the more I learned and the more I was encouraged to keep on trying and keep on working to improve my art. Since watching your SKETCHENDEAVOUR series I've added yet another component to the benefits of watching your videos. I am a retired art teacher and now teach art out of my home, offering some free drawing classes and make my own art. I said all that to say I'm also improving my teaching technique listening to your videos! Thank you for your perseverance in improving your own (spectacular) art and sharing that experience with us. God bless you!

[@Sas_HeatherC]

You are an inspiration. Thank you. I have been drawing since a little child. I have always had a natural ability to draw. This is to illustrate a point. I don't know crap about crap. You can spend a lifetime drawing and still have somewhere to go. I have gone years between drawing and not drawing. The meat of the matter to "exercise" is consistent and regular drawing. You can do it. You don't have tomorrow yet. Draw beauty today. You will improve. Good luck everyone. You are not inadequate. You don't know until you know.

[@brucemaatta5859]

Thanks for this comment...needed it

[@michellehall7045]

Thank you for your generosity in sharing your craft. I need to spend more time being productive and less time watching others creating amazing work, but the time watching your work is a solid investment if I wish to improve.

[@cadykyst4457]

Really beautiful, sensitive drawings, Andrew.

[@dianaeller1843]

After years in a non-art related career, I have just begun to pick up the pencil again. Through the years I've painted with oils and watercolors for enjoyment, but pencil has always been my favorite. From my early years in art class, one instruction from my instructor has stuck with me..."use short, diagonal overlapping lines." When sketching, if I begin to start getting too loose with my strokes, I always revert back to that advice. Loving your comments and sketching advice and ideas!

[@emasolie4135]

[@ken1302]

Another good video, Andrew. A couple things I thought to mention for the benefit of people just starting out with graphite. New drawers tend to shy away from darks but should notice how drawings come alive when the darks are built up to a certain level and beyond. Andrew does this through working in layers. You mentioned this in passing but too much tooth is not ideal for most people. Most graphite artists I know work on smooth paper surfaces. In general there are cold pressed watercolor paper (rough), vellum (slightly toothy), smooth or plate. All have pros and cons as well as differing by brand. Plate is great for details but darks are very difficult to achieve. Smooth or hot pressed is probably the most preferred by folks. Weight is also an issue as is the content with 100% rag (cotton) being the most archival. Also erasing is almost an art form unto itself. Paper is so easily damaged by incorrect or over aggressive erasing which also depends on the eraser. I usually recommend either BluTack or a kneaded eraser. BluTack is slightly sticky so it lifts the graphite more easily by dabbing or rolling. I find holding a regular kneaded eraser in my non-dominant hand while drawing keeps it warm and also slightly tacky so it forms and lifts better. Just some thoughts ...

[@AndrewTischlerArt]

This is Great! I'll be sure to follow this advice too! Thanks Ken!

[@listentothestars]

do you recommend any good sketchbooks that have some of those specs? thanks ^_^

[@ken1302]

@@listentothestars I don't use sketchbooks for several reasons. First, the quality of paper isn't usually all that great and secondly they are usually somewhat off white. Instead I've been using Conqueror paper from the UK. I used to use Mellotex but the company went out of business. I just started with Conqueror but it seems quite good so far.

[@Sas_HeatherC]

Here here LOL

[@romanterry]

Andrew thanks so much for the true elements of mastery... Like putting in the time. I have discovered a 2nd element needed for the time element to really work. That is FOCUS. Some refer to it as "quality" time. Christians interpret Jesus saying about needing the faith of a mustard seed, as we only need a little faith to work wonders. That was not his meaning at all. The mustard seed is tiny yet one of the most strongest potent of flavor or a condensed but very focused thing...does that make sense? I hate bearing bad news, but a "little" faith will not allow you to move a mountain or walk on water. 15 minutes of focused sketch work will be better than 2 hrs of flaky work, where we're youtube surfing chatting on Twitter and also trying to sketch at the same time. Your ability to focus is the equivalence of your paycheck.

[@linamoaney5730]

Good morning, I hope u feel better! Those people who are put of by the share amount of time u are talking about don't quite understand what the master of skill is. It took me solid 10 years where I could say I'm sure getting better at this and be confident. Plus I did children's art school in Lithuanian all through high school. So yes Andrew, I totally agree with you, it does take a lot of time to MASTER a skill. ;)

[@donaldarthur3497]

Andrew I understand the guys comment about you being a great draws man that's if you compare your work to others. However I fully understand that you are not comparing your work to others your aim is to get better ever day. Live your work and enjoy your comments. I've not pursued art with many excuses. I would paint and draw stop did this over and over i retired now work can't be my excuse any more. Thanks for all the encouragement you have given me. You owe no one in the art world. You could just paint make money and live no one could fault you for it. Your love for painting is simply telling people to work hard with long hours and there are no short cuts. Thank you once again happy new year.

[@krisjeff97]

Andrew, this series is JUST what I needed to inspire me to get me back to doing what I absolutely love- and that is creating art. I've allowed life , work, etc. to be my excuse to not do my art for many years and since felt like I've lost my skill. You've inspired me to commit to the discipline of practicing and doing. Thank you!

[@jasoncowles50]

Andrew, I grew up in a time before internet and cell phones. As a child I drew every chance I got but never took art classes. Now at the age of 52, I am trying to get back into drawing. It seems harder now than when I was a kid. I have watched both of the sketch endeavor videos and found myself re-energized about my drawing. Really enjoyable. Can't wait for the next video.

[@kieruz9]

I adore the premise of this series. I cannot relate to it on the artistic front - but the underlying themes of commitment to self-development are something I can really engage with. I've regularly been distraught (okay, mildly bemused!) at your lack of content, and so I hope this series will be a nice glimpse into your weekly 'training' and also your thinking. Greetings from the UK.

[@irmawassing140]

Hi Andrew, I am from the Netherlands, and a big fan of yours. Since the first video of the “Sketchendeavour” I am drawing every day. Most of the time I draw a “BN’er” ( in Dutch translated: “famous Dutch people”) I pause the TV, and just draw. Then I let people guess who it is… I’ve lot’s of fun doing this! Portraits as you know are not the most easy to draw or paint. Thanks for all your videos Andrew, you’re my favourite!!!

[@mikatinde5112]

Awsome podcasts you have made!! And I love the 10 000 ours endeavour. You are of course not enforcing anyone to do this, and to me that is a given. Having ambitions and a concrete goal scare some people. If those who react negative to that, instead reflected on why they reactive negatively, they might end up freeing themselves instead of trying to limit others. Beacause of your initiative I have startet sketching now, everyday and decided to skip my negative experiences from younger days. It is such a relief!!!! Keep on making podcasts. I started listening to them, and I cannot stop listening to them. And I have such a boost painting now, listening to those podcasts similtanously. PS; I am norwegian, and apologize for miss-spellings.

Aptitude..! Hello again Andrew. Aptitude like water... It will seek its own level ;) Im just turning 70yrs old. Through observation, i have learn not everyone has the same IQ but!!! a person can be trained. To what level, is the QUESTION. This series you are doing, (the psychology of it all), illustrates how an individual can go beyond the things that traps us in life. To become a journeyman, it can take up to 6 years to be an all around person. This = 100,000 hrs. Its not just whats in the brain, but what comes automatically in the boby itself. Fantastic series ;)

[@cwlindWX]

By the time you are in your 50's, this won't be called "KZbin" anymore ;) As you said in the first video/comment, I think we're on the same page. I appreciate you elaborating and explaining. Ironically, I find it funny that folks who blanch at a 17-year commitment have no qualms about going and getting a 30-year mortgage. I understand your motivation now. You make a great point regarding Day 12 where you were sick. This is where your commitment comes in. As with writers, the difference between professionals and dreamers is, professionals don't wait for inspiration. They don't wait for the right moment. They don't "not write" just because they aren't in the right mood or frame of mind (or feeling perfect). They sit down and write. You do this for a living. Many of us arm-chair artist/hobbyists can sit back and criticize and nitpick the smallest thing you put on KZbin (and many will always do that no matter what you produce). But sitting down and doing the drawing even when not feeling well is what makes you a professional (in my eyes). As Demartini told you, '...that's what it will take.' On the flip-side of the coin, listen to your wife when she says you're over-doing it! ;)

[@AndrewTischlerArt]

Cheers Clark! I appreciate that mate. Yeah, my wife is always right... Sometimes I don't want to hear it though! I'll discuss more on this topic in the next video, good points here.

As a complete layman in this topic I admire your attitude for sharing your honnesty, your always helping point of view. You never show off with your work if I may say so, not once. You're realy good to my opinion but not only in drawing and sketching. You know how to encourage people in a simple way being a professional ARTpainter. That for what this comment is worth it.

[@mematron]

I remember in college that a teacher said that you have to draw when your sick, you have to draw when you don't feel like drawing. You have to draw, draw, draw. I used to think that I'd get to a point and understand everything. I'd be an art jedi, but I always learn something new with whatever I do. Sure you'll finish but it's about what happens on the way to the end. Right now I'm combining every medium and creating a few new one to make a videogame based of an idea I had when I was 16 years old - 1986. I had to wait for, create and help create the tools to make it. I never stopped drawing. Nowadays, drawing is not only on paper it's also translated into polygons than form 3D forms and back again with 3D printing. No the less you inspire me to know that there are many of us that know the value of out foundation. What I do is in part, dedicated to artists like you. As for the drawing, I would stay away from using the paper stump as that will flatten out your drawing by eliminating the texture and form you have made with the build-up from your pencil strokes. It takes long to make possibly - depending on how much coffee you've had. But your drawings will have a depth that is truly dimensional. Rotating your paper is key too. Keeping the paper stationary can make the drawing less dynamic. basically you rotate the drawing and lay down your strokes as you do to build up your mass and form. You keep the same light pressure on the paper. You can actually just use one pencil to do this. Eventually the strokes will build-up your value and form. It's not something that is done fast but It does yield photo-real illustrations.

[@JonBradhamArtist]

Amazing art and video as usual Andrew! You are doing a great service providing your teaching and knowledge gained through your years as a pro. Your comment on 'deliberate practice' resonates with me. I think focused practice, mindful of each mark, trying different materials, different techniques, different subjects, even with your other hand - this is how to really benefit from the practice.

I'm getting back into my art again! I' m learning to do oil paintings. I've had so many creative ideas come to me that I didn't know what project to start first. I've in the process of writing & illustrating for a children storybook & film animation. One of my characters is unicorns, this horse tutorial is helpful & studying horse anatomy. I hope one day my storybook will be published when I'm finished. You are never too old too start creating art, and I'm 45. I learned a lot from your youtube videos! oil techniques & supplies.

That feeling, when I can share my work with people and be happy and grateful for this talent given me from above. can't be compared to anything in this world :-) Good luck to you with your artist path! :-)

I absolutely love what you are communicating to help move us forward as artists. I joined your challenge. I have been painting for many many years, but must admit I am challenged by my draftsmanship. I never had formal drawing and to me it shows when I am focused on specific shapes. I am starting over with basic shapes, watching drawing videos, etc. I own most of the drawing tools, but honestly have not committed to using them daily. Being afraid to show my drawings, I have not posted yet. My other challenge seems to be scheduling so adding this to the mix, my commitment is switching up my day......but needed and welcomed. I have a similar story as your Dads “do it anyway, act as if” attitude. I loved your interview with Dad and admired his tenacity. You’re great!

Love your work and your outlook, Andrew. Committing honestly to become the best you can be and turning up each day to do it is all we can do. But we have to turn up or it won't happen. That speaks to me. Thanks for all you do.

Goid morning all, and thank you so much for putting this magnificence together and sharing out for us all with that draw to be our best at our art. I am starting #sketchendeavor too. Every one of these horses you drew are special, as well as the thoughts you've shared.

Andrew, by the time you put in another 10,000 hours of drawing you'll be quite past the level of mastery! I'm certain you've already put in several thousand hours drawing in your lifetime if you're at this level of drawing already. Love these horses by the way.

Everything you said I connect with. I am glad the way I think is shared with others.

So appreciate all of your videos. Thank you!

One of the best things you do when you upload a video is you don't place pressure on a person who might what to draw or paint or move in that direction and yea I think you're a very good artist. I enjoy the balance and honesty of what I would say is a teaching lesson from you. We need that in a world that promotes lies and alternative facts, so I'll continue watching.

It's truly amazing how fast 17 years can just fly by. And just think, you committed 2 hours a day to that. For the nay sayers, in 17 years are you going to be celebrating achieving master level, or questioning why you just didn't do it? Thank you for this lesson! You brought up important points about questioning your commitment in relation to your goal, trying out different line techniques for each drawing, being mindful of what your using, asking questions about what's working/not/what if, and finally thinking about what you get out of it. So from one crazy meticulous to another, thank you for bringing up a topic that challenges all of us to understand what commitment to being a master looks like and how not to be afraid of pushing your skill level forward. Cheers!
