@@chiakinanami965 25-50 minutes per day, for 30 days will total 12.5 - 25 hours, so 4 months for 100h of study at best, so nah but that is not the point. consistency is key to any learning experience, don't focus on the 100h mark, just focus on fixing the things wrong in your techique, you'll get to 100h and won't even feel it go for 25-50 minutes and stop trying to get things fast, just try to get them right, learning will come in time.
1. Set challenging goals *just beyond* your current ability level 2. Getting *immediate feedback* on your performance 3. Make *targeted adjustments* based on that feedback, correcting your mistakes 4. Repeatedly practice weak areas until they become strengths
I'm currently doing that list. The only problem is that I don't get feedback, so I'm just fumbling new things as I wing it and pray that the final result is good enough to gather some attention so that I get some feedback 😅
@@Spamkromite you can evaluate your own drawings without the help of another person. When drawing from reference you can compare what you've drawn/painted and try to identify 1-3 things that could be improved (don't try to find all the mistakes b/c the brain can only give full attention to a limited amount of things at one time). Then re-do the drawing with these things in minded and then repeat the process. Also it is very important to not to beat oneself up for drawing mistakes, try to be neutral in your attitude it will give you a much more healthy relationship to your art. One more thing don't grind trying to not make the same mistake because after a break or a nights sleep you'll actually improved (the new skill needs time to sink in). Plus the 80 20 rule Marc talked about.
@@Spamkromite I was in the same boat as you but honestly what I'm doing now is I made an art channel on discord where I post updates of my studies etc, and I also got chatgpt plus so it gives me feedback. Of course it might not be 100% accurate, but so far it's helping me feel like I can actually improve and even sets my schedules for me. I told it to be my art instructor to help me get to the level I wanna be.
Lol. Good luck with step 2. Everyone is such a coward online to offer constructive criticism. I've tried. All the art communities are hug-boxes. Positive reinforcement is all well and good, but we can't learn if people don't point out our mistakes.
Marc, PLEASE make a video on the most efficient way to study color. Thanks to your videos I've got a good idea on what I should do to improve my gesture and anatomy, but I'm still really lost on how I should go about studing color.
Get a cheap student-grade watercolor set (like the Winsor & Newton Cotman watercolor set) and mix colors.... lots of colors. Start with primary, secondary, and tertiary colors and then try to reproduce colors by mixing. DIgital isn't a great way to learn colors because all the colors are available. The whole point of this analog approach is to build an intuition for color: If your visual imagination and memory is good, you can visualize mixing colors. Finally, use this knowledge and intuition to look at a lot of artwork. You will see patterns and gain more understanding on what color combinations and palettes works and what doesn't.
I always loved you and your videos Marc, but I dont think I can ever purchase your course because the price is super high in my country BUT I always watch your videos and learn from them, thank you for sharing so much in your videos! you are truly a god tier teacher, Thanks!.
During the time I've been drawing, I've never studied anatomy, I've just drawn without reference, and now I am at the level any one can reach in a year , so I finally understand why. thanks
Something my teacher told me is to study from different sources, even if they try to teach you the same thing. because it is almost guaranteed that in one of them they will do or say something that clicks with you and makes you understand the other methods you saw even if it was just a short sentence in a half hour video
Damn I've been missing out on classes lately, life's been grinding my gears This is a very important topic for me though so will pay attention definitely!
a trick they taught me to get feedback when you don't have people around to help you is to look at your reference, analyze it well, then put it aside and try to replicate it without looking Then when you go back to see it you will be able to notice what things you have to correct.
I can’t believe it has been this long since I have watched a video from this channel. I have been missing out. I believe nuance is really important so whenever I see videos that make statements, especially when they are statements that I believe are true, I try to look for arguments against. Understanding the nuanced details of a rule helps you apply it better. I can’t really find anything to disagree with. If I remember correctly, that was basically what happened with 90% of the videos from this channel.
Hello Marc, first of all I am a highschooler and a student of your art school, it is one of the best programs in the world but.. DUDE! My father came in while I was doing a nude figure drawing and nearly killed me
Around 10,000 hours is for mastery supposedly it's been debated in neuroscience but just to get competent or "good" as we would call it actually doesn't take as long as most people think. With drawing even with just a year maybe less of progress people can get pretty damned good especially at art. My source is myself and many, many, other artists I've talked to.
Funny you should mention "avoiding distractions" and then drop a timelapse like that 😆 But anyway, completely agree, the video is 100% facts, but I think there's one overriding rule to follow. It's 1) Draw a lot! If you already draw a lot, then do all these other things, deliberate practice, study, courses, books, observation, etc. I do all of that and my progress is still middling for one reason only, just not putting in the hours. Drawing 2 hours a week won't cut it. Cheers!
I Just wanna share this Experience I thought my 2-3 years of looking or "Observing" through the pinterest was a waste, in those years i rarely draw because i have to take care of school for My only Mom who Does everything for me, i have to Help her so i had to sacrifice my Drawing time and just scroll through pinterest that is full of Arts,concepts........ Etc, so that i could admire Art itself. It was fun observing with patience, as i draw again this 2024 i thought my drawing skills and habits are gone, i learned that Passion in Hobby never left it remains, in fact i feared that it wad gone in those years But The Passion Of Loving Drawing never left, In fact It Automatically improved 10x, and Wow "Passionate Observation" in 3 years pay off Amazingly, for I didnt leveled up, I Was Humbly Molded like a Sword being refined and refined again after damaged, I didnt become a better artist, For Me Ive Refreshed Myself as A Silent Artist, And Thanks Marc for all those Vids, and Love the Art school, Iam Not one of your students but ive been watching For a Long While Keep Up Master Marc in teachingas an Art Teacher or Sensei, Merry Christmas❤🙏👋
Can you make a video about feedback? Right now thats what im struggling on grasping. What is proper feedback and how do you filter feed back that might hinder your progress. Also where to ask for feed back for those self taught artist?
I'd say it probably still takes more than 100h to get at a very high level because of a lot of improvement coming from mileage with the pencil and making learned principles come naturally to the page, so I kinda like your previous video on this principle that instead says that it takes 20h to learn one specific aspect of art that you struggle with. It is way shorter than 10,000 but it makes more sense in the context of improving individual skills within art.
Indeed. Not just the hours spent, but the quality of practice on each individual. Some can take more, even more, or (a bit) less than it. Focus matters more than hours spent. If you do it with high-level focus, your skills definitely will increase.
Sad to know because this means having an environment and mentors is huge, and if you don't have the time/money or don't live in the right places you're already behind.
For me, i think I'm at a level in my art where I can do multiple styles fairly well. At least in terms of line work. Sketchy, clean, etc. But color is very hard for me.
the original study has then being explored by the author himself in other fields etc... if you look for the book you'll find it easily (right now I don't remember the name). The 10000h rules doesn't have "pro level" as the final milestone, but has "worldclass level". Of course this doesn't deny the content of this video as 100h for pro level and 10000h for world class level are two very different things.
ty for saying this im sick of people saying practice makes perfect when it never did for me. 17 years of drawing experience and i never improved. someone with one week of drawing is better at art then me
Hi Marc! Great thing you've mentioned, that we didn't learn how to learn :D How long does it take to draw a character like you did in the video? I usually start to draw one pose, and then change it, and then see something wrong, and change again and again and it can take hours 🥲
hey marc why not make a discord so people can share art and get valid feed back bad or good? i feel like this can help a lot as someone who don't got a teacher
Hi Marc, just wanted to ask if you are still working on chroma island? I just watched that playlist and wondered if you will post an update video about it. Thanks for all the great content and art.
One note: 100 hours of the best focused/most structured practice wont make you a master. Mastery will take around 3,000-15,000 hours depending on natural ability. There would be a very respectful argument that Marc isnt a master artist yet if we compare him to an unarguable master like Kim Jung Gi
Off topic, I feel like i picked the worst drawing niche, backgrounds with characters. My god, my life would be much more simple with just characters. Too much to focus on.
What Daniel says. Try to limit what you focus on. For example, first characters, and when you get the gist (those 100 hours) pivot towards backgrounds as a new challenge. Don’t try to juggle too many balls, it will slow down your progression overall
I would say 10,000 hours doing anytning should yield some results. If it doesn't you need to stop immediately upon that realization and maybe reconcile the fact you have wasted over a year achieving nothing and don't do it again. Whether it would yield good results compared to someone spending say 500 hours, I say that depends on what exactly you do with the time. If you spend 10k hours metaphorically picking your nose and eating it then probably won't be that beneficial to you. TL;DR being smart with your time is better than investing lots of it.
My problem is, I have a hard time figuring out what to deconstruct to focus on, because there just is too much. When I say faces. DO I complete faces or parts of faces? When I say Eyes, do I draw eye after eye after eye? Gestures make me feel I know too little of the basics, but I don't know which basics to focus on. This feels so frustrating
Ok, i've found out about myself that i can NOT rely on any means of figuring things out on my own, not even with tutorials or help from the internet. What i know i need is direct coaching, which comes with the obvious problem of: "WHERE DO I GET THAT?!?", and that applies not just to drawing, but basically everything i do. Like in Blender 3D, how the hell do i proceed with the thing shown in the tutorial, if i've made some mistake i can't identify or see in the tutorial which prevents me from proceeding? I swear, every time i try to proceed, something gets me stuck, and only with extensive help, or someone to coach me, can i overcome the obstacles which have robbed meof my motivation 90% of the time, if not more often than that! TL;DR: I found out i need coaching to get me past my problems with teaching myself certain skills. How do i counteract that need, or how do i find good "coaches" easily?
I see that you mostly work in photoshop and a lot of your lessons seem geared towards photoshop. I have Krita and HiPaint on an android tablet and I'm not sure if that is suitable for your lesson plan?
Hey marc, love your work, mate. I saw your program on sale and been thinking of finally diving in and getting it! But i wanted to know if i can do the course using procrrate? I currently do my digital art with an ipad and saw your course uses Photoshop (brushes, etc) and was just curious if i could use it with Procreate or not!
@YTartschool awesome mate! Consider me sold for sure. I've been looking at your program for a while now and think with this sale and wanting to improve my art, it's time to do it! I'm looking forward to it, man! Cheers.
"Noooooooooo!" Another explosion took out Senpai before the video ended 😥 😂😂😂 See U next week, fellow "ART gang" members (wonder what the last class of the year will be about? 🤔).!
Hello Marc, After watching your video for a while I'm wondering if I bought you online art school and I have a question about anything in the course. do you an anything to message to you to anyone that could help me. Thanks
Focused, purposeful, and deliberate practice matters more than the hours spent. A crucial difference comes from how top-class performers (particularly artists) focus during practice sessions, primarily on some areas that require more improvement.
The "10,000 hours rule" is wy misunderstood. That's the level needed for MASTERY and EXPERTISE. That's what's needed to become a Kim Jung Gi. But we need WAY LESS TIME to simply become "good enough" for our liking. And time is worth nothing if you don't practice mindfully anyways. Thanks a lot for this video.
I think the 10,000 hours study only gained traction because people like to throw pithy factoids at each other at water coolers. "Did you know bats make all the French toast in the world?", as Louis C.K. put it. But simple common sense dictates it doesn't take that long to master a skill: Firstly, there are levels of ambiguity in what constitutes mastery. Secondly, there is inherent displacement between the difficulty of certain skills and the people pursuing them. But most importantly, 10,000 hours is _an insane amount of time._ A calendar year has 8760 hours in it. You could pursue a bachelor degree and not even spent 10,000 hours in academic pursuit. I was heavily addicted to an online game in my youth, I'd spend most days of the week playing it for 8 or 10 hours a day. When I quit after like 6 years, I had 1 year and a few months logged. Until you've logged 10,000 literal hours into something and turn around and look back at it, most people have absolutely no concept how much time that actually is. It's an entire stage of your waking life.

I still believe in the full focus 10.000 hour rule. It is about the journey. I think the goal is much more important.
Hi Marc- does your program translate to Procreate? Or do you recommend photoshop/fresco - I am using an Ipad.
One note:
100 hours of the best focused/most structured practice wont make you a master.
Mastery will take around 3,000-15,000 hours depending on natural ability.
There would be a very respectful argument that Marc isnt a master artist yet if we compare him to an unarguable master like Kim Jung Gi

Backgrounds or Characters. You will improve much faster

Same
Merging the character in the background is hard in itself.
Break down the task, start small and gradually go up.
Character with background would be 🔥

Hey marc, love your work, mate. I saw your program on sale and been thinking of finally diving in and getting it! But i wanted to know if i can do the course using procrrate? I currently do my digital art with an ipad and saw your course uses Photoshop (brushes, etc) and was just curious if i could use it with Procreate or not!
Thanks for considering it! Sure can! About 1/3 of my students are on the iPad ;)
@YTartschool awesome mate! Consider me sold for sure. I've been looking at your program for a while now and think with this sale and wanting to improve my art, it's time to do it! I'm looking forward to it, man! Cheers.
"Noooooooooo!"
Another explosion took out Senpai before the video ended 😥
😂😂😂 See U next week, fellow "ART gang" members (wonder what the last class of the year will be about? 🤔).!
guys how long should i study if im trying to get to 100 hours in a month? Is 25 minutes or 50 minutes enough?
Hello Marc, After watching your video for a while I'm wondering if I bought you online art school and I have a question about anything in the course. do you an anything to message to you to anyone that could help me. Thanks
Typo on the title mate, might wanna check that out.
Your definition of deliberate practice precludes the majority of people from learning anything.
It’s not my definition, it’s the official definition for deliberate practice. Look it up ;)
But I agree it’s not easy, nothing worth getting is!
Hey Marc. When you say studied for 100 hrs, do you mean per week or per month? (*I got a busy, randomized work schedule*)
It's like how that 10,000 steps a day rule was really just a marketing campaign for a pedometer company, that was chosen because it sounds good.
Focused, purposeful, and deliberate practice matters more than the hours spent. A crucial difference comes from how top-class performers (particularly artists) focus during practice sessions, primarily on some areas that require more improvement.
The "10,000 hours rule" is wy misunderstood. That's the level needed for MASTERY and EXPERTISE. That's what's needed to become a Kim Jung Gi.
But we need WAY LESS TIME to simply become "good enough" for our liking.
And time is worth nothing if you don't practice mindfully anyways.
Thanks a lot for this video.
MARC QUIT DROPPING YOUR STYLUS
I think the 10,000 hours study only gained traction because people like to throw pithy factoids at each other at water coolers. "Did you know bats make all the French toast in the world?", as Louis C.K. put it.
But simple common sense dictates it doesn't take that long to master a skill:
Firstly, there are levels of ambiguity in what constitutes mastery.
Secondly, there is inherent displacement between the difficulty of certain skills and the people pursuing them.
But most importantly, 10,000 hours is _an insane amount of time._ A calendar year has 8760 hours in it. You could pursue a bachelor degree and not even spent 10,000 hours in academic pursuit. I was heavily addicted to an online game in my youth, I'd spend most days of the week playing it for 8 or 10 hours a day. When I quit after like 6 years, I had 1 year and a few months logged. Until you've logged 10,000 literal hours into something and turn around and look back at it, most people have absolutely no concept how much time that actually is. It's an entire stage of your waking life.
