How To Conquer Artist Block
The books mentioned in this video-
The War Of Art- amzn.to/4gJpz3Y
How To Do Nothing- amzn.to/3TOXsGT
In this video, I give my thoughts on how to conquer artist block. As usual, it's a complex answer, but I believe it will be helpful and actionable.
This is my final video in this Q&A session. I filmed this in the spring and life kept me from getting to this until now-- almost 6 months later. Yikes.

      You can do it! It takes desire and practice. I know you can do it-believe you can and you will be able to do it. Start small, draw some trees, practice perspective with lines and rulers, then try drawing what you see. Use a grid to help you with placement-you can do this!

    Good video David. I'll try the 100 sketches challenge. Oddly, I worked backwards in my career. I started at finished drawings (many taking 200-300 hours) and did that for the first 16 years of my career. In 2018, I wanted to learn to create quality drawings faster. I spent most of that year creating drawings that took about 4 days. Then I started doing 10 minute sketches. Now, I'm beginning to push back upwards with 2 hour sketches. It's certainly made me better in many areas.

    • @davidbruehl
      @davidbruehl 5 месяцев назад

      Yes absolutely. It's flash. It's meant to be copied and learned from. I'd suggest doing that alongside observational drawing. Also, when you trace flash, you can trace it by sketching over top of it. Change anything in the design to improve it any way you'd like, then trace your final lines from your sketch. You'll learn more that way and really make the design yours.

I have picked up a few different tyoes of rotary machines ..very big difference from a coil machine. I could never do soild traditinal work with a rotary ..always a prison style black n grey ish type of style . this is gonna be a hard change ..i never thought i would say i enjoy a coil over a rotary ..i enjoy a line that a coil pushes ..but enjoy how much more control i have with a rotary ...stay tuned 😂
