The book "Anatomy for sculptors" (don't remember authors) is a legend. No long muscle descriptions, no stories about artists in the past. Just forms, points where it starts and ends on bones and mistakes many artists do and the way you should do it correctly. I wish I could have this book at the beginning of my art journey.

This is awesome! So many art schools only want people who have already developed their "talent". Not every school has art and not every city has a school of the arts for potential art professionals to train. I know that I ran into my share of art teachers who were very critical and elitist. You show a progression that takes some of the mystery of becoming an artist. You would make a great art instructor. Thanks for sharing your journey!

Just wanted to say that I feel like watching this saved my life. Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm currenly studying (and about to graduate) science, after feeling like I was too poor and untalented to do art for a living, I now feel depressed cause I feel a burning desire to go back to drawing and painting but I was feeling like I couldn't do it anymore before watching this. My last piece one was done with pastels in 2021, last week I saw it in my old sketchbook and I've been feeling sad since then but now I feel excited about what lives has to offer for me and want to start drawing and painting again

As someone who started with nothing art-wise at 25, with no skill whatsoever, it is so important to share this idea. So many people just assume they can't do something because they weren't born with it. Anyone can learn anything with the right resources and hard work. It is ok if it takes time.

I wish more adult learners could tell us about their journey like this. Itās easy to find great artists who were drawing since youth, but itās hard to learn much from their journey. They often donāt even know it themselves. They were just drawing for hours a day, every day. But the adult learner needs more direction and efficiency, and seeing the journey of other adult learners really helps.

this is incredibly encouraging! iāve always loved art, but i was never really good at drawing, painting, etc. i always compared myself to others my age who were amazing at it, and itās kinda caused me to give up and stop practicing because i donāt āhave the talentā for it. iām 21 now and have had a very strong and sudden urge to get into digital art, which is something iāve wanted to do for a LONG time. but the longer i waited, the more i felt it would be too late for me to really learn and get anything out of it. but iāve finally decided to put my fears aside and just go for it. seeing where you started out when you were around my age, and seeing where you are now, just further confirms that my fears are irrational. i donāt need talent, and itās not too late for me to learn this skill. thank you so much for sharing you story and giving me the encouragement i needed to follow through with this ā¤ļø

I needed to hear this. Iām 19 right now and I feel as if Iām stagnating, that people who are like 5-6 younger than me have better art skills than I can only dream to have. Itās kinda disheartening and because of my schedule and how ugly and stiff my art looks, it doesnāt look that good. Itās not fun to explore out my style.

You and Sinix gave us a sense of relief that starting at around 19 or 20 in art, there is still a lot of time to improve, maybe it's because of the social media or internet in general that some of us thought feel bad with our drawing skills in proportion to our older age. Anyways, thanks again for your amazing videos, not just with technical approach in art but also boosting our morale in it.

I'm a not-so-young person just starting my art journey. My drawings, at the moment, are similar to your first attempts. I was becoming very disheartened, when I came across this video, it's so inspiring! I know now to just keep on practising and will eventually get there. I can't imagine being as good as you, but even a small improvement is something. Thanks. :)

Wow! He took the rejection from his art school wayy better than a certain Austrian-Born German kid.
