I love looking at someone art and instantly being able to tell what type of media took over their entire life.

Watching as I write this, this is moreso my specific frustrations as a disabled artist who is bedridden a lot and wants to be able to turn their projects into something proper one day.

I think it’s less about speed for me and moreso just being able to improve art and draw consistently? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a video or even any artist address how things like mental illness (such as bipolar and how low mania can just nose dive motivation) or adhd making processing information difficult (even with the tracing method of breaking down an object into shapes; I’ve noticed my improvement is stagnant even in muscle memory and doesn’t stick efficiently because of my disability and mental illnesses - I am unable to stick to a consistent routine because of this.)

For example, I’ve been mainly wanting to improve my human art; but because of aspects stated above, it has been painfully slow; even with my animal art I feel I am slipping away with my skills (I cannot tell if this is autistic regression or mania consuming my life), even when using references it feels I am unable to process and use the references effectively? I don’t think I’ve seen specific disability like this and how it regresses art skill in the art community. One reason I miss the older art community is because there wasn’t this expectation of posting a lot, and hyping each other up and being supportive.

Trying to best to explain how my disability and mental illness has made practicing extremely difficult and inconsistent, but I do apologise if it’s not coherent 😭; like, I’ll be able to practice one day but then I could wake up the next day and be so unmotivated - I have a lot of art ideas that are so far beyond my skill level. But I do admit my frustrations with limited skills has played a part (it’s less about other people and more so I want my art to look good to my preferences).

I do appreciate thee tips though; gonna save it to my art advice playlist for sure because you say a lot of reminders I need to tell myself regardless (and maybe give myself some slack regarding my disability.) aaa😭⭐️

Dawg, perfectionism is honestly the BANE of my existence. It's weird, I'm not necessarily concerned with people who don't like my work, I'm so scared I'm going to disappoint people who already follow me for my work that I often just hide behind practice xS

I somehow missed this video for 8 WHOLE DAYS? no but this was a really helpful video, I'm still pretty new to doing digital art and its hard to find the motivation to draw and get better at art when i feel like ill never finish something, so thank you!

something i noticed helps a lot is rendering less if that makes sense?? like i used to do so much blending and shading and highlighting on my drawings, just an insane amount of detail, and it took FOREVER. at some point i started experimenting with cell shading and i ended up at the point where i only really shade where its absolutely necessary lol, now i just focus more on sharp highlights to show depth. not only do i like it a lot more, it also really helps my drawings pop and it shaves entire HOURS off of my process too!! obvi it depends on the style, but i think it helps a lot to simplify your style where you can (in lineart and in rendering)

the warm up drawings are a really good tip tho i’ll definitely be trying that out ‼️‼️
