>why does it take time to achieve mastery in something?

Most because people hate boring deliberate practice. If we were all better at that - we would be able to move on more often and more quickly to the pieces we want to create.

The years will fly right by if you enjoy the process of it. If the act of drawing itself seems grueling, then seek release in expressing your ideas. I know of several very skilled, very respected artists who belong to the latter camp.

Because of how complex art is, and how many fundamentals there are to master, Perspective, linework, rendering, construction, anatomy, style, composition, ect. the list just goes on. It's not a simple task, and even the best of artists have at least 10 years of experience. You just have to remind yourself that you will get good, it just takes time.

>>4755405
it's the other way around
"good" is something you become after spending lots of time and effort on it

Have Talent and you can do it in 1

Why is /ic/ so full of pussies? /mu/ doesn't have them, /3/ doesn't have them, no sight of them on /p/.
Is drawing too accessible to the point that little shits get their hopes up of becoming the greats and then being highly disappointed of the fact that it requires time and devotion, like every single discipline you'd want to take on in life? It's a struggle like everything else, so you either learn to live with it and pull through or shut the fuck up and let people better than you persevere.

It probably is too accessible. I mean, I'm here.

>>4755405
Because some people spent a lot of years getting good.

that's not a bad thing

>>4755405
It does? I'm so glad I have natural talent I was coasting on, lost, and now I'm making better now with ease.

>3 high school art classes
>draw literally 3 times a year at most for 6 years in a row
>get back into art
>use shitty free phone app to draw decent and get art skills back
>by tablet not even meant for art to draw even better work.
>skills back and better after 2 years of drawing maybe once a month.

Anything worth it is hard.

Pic related is the last thing I made.

The other most accessible art is creative writing. That's why everyone believes they can write a competent novel. The more hurdles an art has, the more filters it has to separete the dedicated from the not. You'd probably not get this kinds of threads from hard musical instruments, like violin.

Shut the fuck up beta westacuck simp. Your art is trash.

Talent isn't a floating cloud. It's a stairway where you can move up 2 steps at a time (let's just say for the sake of analogy that you typically cant) whereas the others move at the slower rate of one step. Also the top of the stairs for the talented is much higher than that those who are not. But the good news is that you dont need that peak to create artwork you can be happy with and also make a career out of. The difficulty in turning your fine art skills into a profitable career is not in skill, but market demand.

>>4755405
It doesn't have to, just focus on one thing you enjoy and git gud

>>4758114
Is this supposed to be impressive?

>>4758125
Now it’s your turn to pyw.

>>4758154
Western cucks think their chicken scratch is impressive. Pathetic.

>>4758141
This is pretty much it.

>>4755405
The more things you want to be good at, the longer it takes. That's one reason why lots of people specialize in a specific subject. You can always be really good at the thing you enjoy doing the most (let's say in this example it's creature drawings) and if you start getting bored of that, you can always diversify yourself by expanding your subject matter.

Different guy but I know what you mean, still, I think there’s a even of innate worth that if you have it, no one can ever reach no matter how hard they work. For instance, due to finance issues, my family is making me wagecuck again (i know), and when I got to the hiring event today, I was secretly grinning inside because I was basicallly prettier and stronger than everyone else there. It eases my anxiety to know that that’s my competition in the real world, since it’ll be that much easier to succeed. Half the attendees were disgusting whales and walruses, and I have no doubt that I was the smartest person there as well, along with inherently talented. Sorry for the blogpost, but just seeing how lame everyone was in comparison to me kind of made my day in a way. Still, as perfect as I am, I still haven’t reached my true potential. Once I do that, no one will be able to even think of disrespecting me the way so many ignorant fools might try to. I’ll probably be spending any free time I get grinding fundies or reading mango, in between work and school. I know I’m destined to be the best, and I’m gonna do it. Ciao

100% accessibility. Sports requires being fit enough to play and then seeking people to play with and accessing a place or facility to play. Music requires getting the instrument. Art and writing just need a pen or pencil to get going so you get dunning-krugers out the ass who think that because they can write a sentence or draw a floating head they automatically should be as good and successful as some famous dude immortalized in a museum or library. Also this board of full of zoomers addicted to instant gratification and who all seem to have ADHD so you get kids asking legitimately why it takes a lot of time to get good at something (?) and getting frustrated when they spend 5 months scribbling anime faces and don’t magically turn into DaVinci

/mu/ doesn’t have much creators and /3/ is actually full of pussies. /p/ is an easy hobby to get into, an artist with a decent grasp of lighting and color theory can quickly become a competent photographer. Drawing is something that almost anyone can pick up, but much more effort is required to become competent at.
