Don't Quit Drawing - 3 Things to Do When Learning to Draw SchaeferArt
video description
When I watch your videos I sometimes feel your frustrations, but at the same time I feel we both undervalue ourselves to a point where self-deprecation is a form of motivation, yet still stings. I am learning although I can usually paint a face and animal I struggle so much with landscapes and plants. There are good days and there are bad days like some other comments have stated, but you are an amazing artist and the fact that you mentor and teach through YouTube is amazing. I've learned more through my own circle of artists like you, whom I've reached out to than in a classroom, but also able to bring what you all do into a classroom. These advice vids are really helpful, the mind of an artist is amazing. Hugs man. Hopefully someday, later this year we can go plein air painting.

Yes, practice, practice, practice! Practicing art is also helpful when one studies math. Art helps one develop seeing in three-D which in turn helps one see the solution to a complex math problem. Geologists need to be able to -see- what is below ground level and how Mother Nature laid down layers of earth in order to decide where to drill for oil and gas. Without the ability to see in three-D making such determinations is almost impossible. Practicing art helps develop this ability. There is more to practicing art than just producing something pleasing to the eye.

I quit art not so long ago. I got discouraged. The reason is that each time I draw or paint, it feels as though I was not improving, and my art sucks, consistently doing bad. Not until just today when I read a book and there was this chapter about motivation and purpose. Art then crossed my mind, then I found my passion once again. And then while scrolling youtube, found this video. And this video was a great help. I realized now that the reason why I was doing bad consistently, is because I wasn't patient and was not realistic. Thank you for this video.

I have been discouraged countless times by my art whether it's my own reaction to it or outside reaction (or lack of, LOL, but yet I keep at it because it's the only thing I feel I HAVE to do because of some deep down burning passion for it. I have gotten better but will never be great or even good, but still, I will keep doing it for the love of it and that's the bottom line.

Don't quit, right! Gotta tattoo this one on my hand. -
No matter what I wanna learn and how much I love it basically, I can't stick to anything more than 1-2 weeks. So there are 4-5 things which always come back again and again for years now. But it's frustrating this way. Like I have no power or control to go on any longer than that. -

You're really wise. It's wonderful to know that you were able to get back to doing this after quitting twice. I took up Japanese and art out of interest as well, but discontinued them.
Thaaanks: ) this is as good as therapy, your advice could save me from future regrets. just need to follow them through though.

i really like color, so learning to draw is slow for me. i don't have the time to go out and paint, nor do i have a tablet. and drawing in ms paint with a mouse is inexact to say the least. maybe i'll get some colored pencils and draw. also, i drew something after i wrote this.

Something I always tell myself is that - focus on the journey not the destination-. I apply that to my studying, mountain biking, drawing/sketching and diet.

Learning japanese and drawing are my main goals right now, but i feel like i won't get anywhere since both are hard to learn and take lots of time.
