>Are you applying the things you're studying? I think that's an important part of the process for things to really start clicking.
I'd like to think I am, for example I usually study some faces & then the next day try my best to redraw at least a similar face from imagination - but I think I haven't done it nearly enough than I should.
It's funny, though. I both love & HATE how even when I feel I get somewhere with art, there's just something else that crops up that I really gotta 'work out'. It's a good challenge, but some times when I'm more interested in getting my idea onto canvas I'd rather the challenge just fuck off and let me draw/paint in peace.
But, then, looking back at day 1 I realize I'd not be able to do what I do today back then - not a shit show in hell. So, it's something, I guess, but I now fully understand why people fall into comfort zones once they've developed enough/made a style and just stay there permanently. I some times wonder if things I've developed over my time with DAD, like, the ability to draw for longer in one sitting is some thing to take into consideration or merely just a cope lel
