KJG is basically a high functioning autist with photographic memory. You're more likely to win the lotto than to ever be able to do exactly what he does. KJG knows he is different from other artists. Don't be fooled by his humility when people ask him about how much he practices. Do you think if he told people the truth they would keep paying to see his lectures? No.

None of this is to say you can't become a great and successful artist in your lifetime. Stop wanting to be like him and find your own path.

When is it okay to reference from real life in your drawings? Is your skill level as an artist entirely dependent on how well you can render a scene from memory?

Plus I don't get how to study from references. I just copy what I see without learning anything. When it comes to memory I can draw simple shapes in perspective but adding details to them makes no sense. I don't know how people make detailed drawings of cars or buildings without have high-functioning autistic memory of them.
