my #1 art tip is to just. not limit yourself. dont force yourself into a style, don't force yourself into a process you hate. just dillydally have fun

I love people with ADHD because they never actually forget anything. You just have to say the right words to activate them like a sleeper cell and then they awaken with all of the knowledge on a very niche subject they studied for 3 months straight 6 years ago.

@BeardieArts Get rotated

@ZippySqrl @BeardieArts Hah, get rotated idiot-

You have to understand that you have to be delusional enough to believe that things are going to go right. That is often the only way to come out of the paralyzing anxiety that prevents you from initiating anything at all. If you evaluate everything too soberly, you freeze. That’s not weakness but that’s how the threat system of the brain works. When you vividly imagine every possible failure, your body treats them as real dangers. Initiation becomes biologically expensive. So sometimes you have to refuse to over-calculate risk so that motion becomes possible. Action often precedes evidence, not the other way around. The nervous system doesn’t calm down because you understand something intellectually. It calms down because it has survived the situation enough times. Exposure rewires fear. That means you have to suspend your ego enough to accept failure, because failure is data. It is how you feed your brain, just like you feed your body. You have to stop seeing it as a verdict on your intelligence or worth. Most of the time, you are judging yourself not on action, but on your imagined potential. Everything in life boils down to repetition. No matter how humongous the task is, the only thing you can actually do is repeat the next step. Failure is not incidental to development, it is integral to it. The brain updates through error. Without friction, there is no refinement. Once you repeat something enough, you remove consciousness from it and turn it into muscle memory. It stops being something you force yourself to do and becomes something you can’t not do. Grand tasks feel overwhelming because the mind compresses them into one massive abstraction. In reality, they are thousands of small loops. And the only variable you control is whether you show up for the next loop. When you want to travel a hundred miles, you just have to make sure you travel the path your car light shows till the end of road. You may have listened the same thing a thousand times, said by various persons, but the truth is that what is repeated often enough loses aesthetic freshness, but it doesn’t lose structural accuracy. That is the irony of cliches. They’ve been said so many times, in so many contexts, because people keep rediscovering their truth the hard way.

How I do anatomy studies: 1. Pick one area you struggle with. 2. Gather more references than you think you need. 3. Try copying them, but without tracing. 4. Then try from memory or a different angle. That’s how learning actually works. I wish someone told me that years ago.

really old sketches...
