it's useless because it's mindless dumbass you have to fucking think about what you're doing and why

Most of art seems to be developing a thicker skin.
Anyone can start drawing, but a lot of people start criticizing themselves as they draw.
You can't think while starting, just draw.

can someone give an example of mindless grinding vs useful grinding?

>> No.3458565

>>3458296
mindless grinding would be copying studies and doing gestures all day. useful grinding would be using your gesture and figure drawing and drawing what you want to

>> No.3458569

>>3458296
Mindless grinding is not even having a goal and just doing what other people told you to do. Useful grinding is what's helping you toward a goal.

>> No.3459326

>>3458296
useful grinding: working on projects, creating own pieces and designs. doing research to doing thumbnails to sketches to finished pieces.
