      Structured, focused, and deeply intentional practice is required to learn how to produce engaging entertaining art. Perspective and drawing are essential skills to build. Great art requires devotion. Being a professional requires taking both art and yourself seriously enough to believe doing this quality/quantity of work will yield results.

    One thing that hurt me the most was that I started focusing on painting much too early on, so my drawing foundation was not trained enough. Last year, I started to e.g. do weeks without even thinking about painting, only drawing, and it helped so much to get looser when e.g. I draw over a 3D base. For the rest of this year,too, I only want to focus on drawing & rendering figures because I also neglected this prioritizing interior environments.
    I can also say that mentorships don't always work out. I had much better experiences with online classes than with mentoring, the worst one of them really broke down my mental health for several months. :/"
    What would you tell/advice someone who isn't at the "ready" level after 6 years+? I have the feeling that I won't be able to make art a career at least 4 more years. I am no beginner, I can produce ok-decent pictures but nothing industry level high. Which also stems from studying wrong, because so many people told me so many different things to do, at the end I started learning my own way which has been... much more effective for the past year lol.

    • @Janos.Artzone
      @Janos.Artzone  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Heyyy RukileinchenChan thank you for comment and sharing your experience and journey with us. :)
      It is clear that you've put a tremendous amount of thought and effort into your art, and your reflections show a deep understanding of your strengths and areas for growth. It takes a lot of courage to recognize where you've struggled and to take the necessary steps to improve, so I want to acknowledge that first and foremost.
      Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in the desire to produce finished paintings and forget how cruciaal the fundamentals are. By taking the time now to really hone those skills, you're setting yourself up for much greater success in the long run.
      Regarding mentorships, it's tough when they don't work out as expected. Buuuuut it's important to remember that not every teaching style or mentor-mentee relationship is going to be the right fit for everyone. The fact that you've found more value in online classes and self-guided learning over the past year suggests that you're discovering the learning methods that resonate best with you. This self-awareness is invaluable and will only serve you well as you continue to grow so you are what a type of learner you are and this is awesome. Over the past 4 years I tought maaany different personalities of artist and for some it also did not worked out. But in most cases they could not bring up the effort it takes to work with 100% dedication and focus on their craft (which is still not easy to do and never to underestimate)
      As for not being at the "ready" level after six years, I completely understand how that can feel discouraging. But remember the path to mastery isn't a straight line. Everyone's journey in art is unique, and some paths are longer and more winding than others. What's important is that you're making progress andyou're learning more effective ways to study, and your work is improving. The fact that you can now produce "ok-decent" pictures is a significant achievement. You might not be at the industry level yet, but that doesn't mean you won't get there. Your ability to critically assess your work and adjust your approach is a sign that you're on the right track.
      Also if there's one piece of advice I'd give it's to be patient with yourself and trust in the process. Moreover you're clearly dedicated to your craft and that dedication will pay off. Focus on the progress you're making now rather than the timeline you think you should be following. Every artist's journey is different and what's most important is that you're moving forward in a way that feels right to you. Keep pushing, keep experimenting, and don't lose sight of the passion that brought you to art in the first place. You've already come so far, and I have no doubt that you'll continue to grow and achieve your goals.
      You are not alone in this journey and every challenge you face is just another step towards becoming the artist you aspire to be.
      So please keep going ! you're doing great :) ps: sorry for any typing mistakes wrote this on my phone xD and sorry if this was too much of an response just felt like saying that.

    Nice Video Janos! I really like your realistic approach about this topic, most channels try to sell courses with some sort of magic trick or try to lead people into expectations that there is some "easy way around". Your approach seems to be realistic and also achievable as long as someone is determinted enough to push through the hard phases of creating something and sticking to the game plan to improve your skills (doesn't matter if it's art, playing an instrument or starting to lift).
    Having the possibility to have you has a mentor is quite a nice chance for everyone who really wants to break through in the indstury. :)

    Portfolios make no sense to me. You’d think as a prospective employer you’d want to see the artist’s process, to include less rendered works as well. I’ve seen sketches with more expression and impact than hyper realistic and fully digitized “finished” images. I agree, a good foundation is paramount, but that can literally be seen in some artists’ gesture drawings. 🤷🏽‍♂️

    • @Janos.Artzone
      @Janos.Artzone  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +33

      Hey Zak thank you for your comment. Well in very rare cases “sketches” or more high quality drawings lead to getting jobs. It is because a lot of instances of the hiring process are not artistic people. Recruiters, producers and sometimes even big lead positions in companies. What they need is the high quality work that aligns with the vision on the companies project. It’s not all about the expression rather than that it’s visible that you can start with an idea and finish strong. All they want is somebody who is useful for the pipeline. With a view gesture drawings you don’t come far. I met only one guy in my career who was a hell of a draftsmanship and he did all his designs with line art🔥 this is 1 out of many.

      As in employer I want to see results. And I want to know that the person is able to do the type of work that I need an amount of time that I need. The whole idea that it’s how you get the work done that matters, is usually something that is only the number one important thing when getting the job done is not important. I’ve never seen any type of employer who put getting the work done second and wasn’t clear about what they needed and making sure that the prospective employee did the match, who was able to get work done. The whole idea decimation Kim more about how you getting Sun then you getting things done, or the expressionism and not be concerned about you doing stuff that they need, and I think like a Bility to actually get the work done. Which is an indication of whether you can get it done in a certain amount of time, is absolutely absurd. Your guilt buying people for knowing what they want and making sure that the people they hire can give that. That has nothing to do with creativity. And it has everything to do with knowing what she want and not settling for less because people make a logical argument that makes it seem like doing what she want it’s not how horrific. And besides if you don’t like somebody’s hiring process that’s a good reason to go someplace else. Or make your own comics. It’s kind of weird how you wanna work for people but then tell him how to do the hiring, and vilify them for actually needing to see results. Even when it comes to elementary school and focusing more on how you come to the map conclusion then it’s official you come to it still is unproductive. Because it vilifies you for your process even though you may have gotten the answer right. Which is also culturally biased. In other words focusing on everything except the results is self defeating. As it is insisting that people go about things ass backwards. If you have your own hiring process then search on business and try it out see if it works. Who knows maybe it will. But otherwise you’re choosing to work for other people only to complain about working for other people. That’s a real Cameron move.

      Absolutely true! Learned that the hard way in one of the final Graphic Design classes I took in college before switching majors/graduating with a different major (though I'm lucky in the sense that I learned this in college instead of directly out in the job market). The class I took was supposed to the experience of doing commission work for the industry/corporations (with my teacher taking up the role as the customer, as well as being part of the class to critique what early drafts of a project needs to be updated or do-over repeatedly). It was the worst class I took (as well as took a major toll on my mental health at the time) for me - but it was great at teaching how much I wasn't cut out for industry work (and it made me scared to take up art commissions on my own). ^^;

    Actually ,this guy is not telling you the truth."Art" sells for two reasons: "Fine art" sells only if it's famous and if it's famous it sells to investors who plan to sell it when the price goes up to make money on their investment.Commercial art sells because it's POPULAR and commercial art is created according to a popular formula.Examples of commercial art are greeting cards,t shirt designs ,art prints and posters

      Hey Adrienne I appreciate your engagement, but I must firmly address your comment. Accusing me of not telling the truth is unfounded and inaccurate. It's evident that you did not fully listen to or watch the content in question, as the topics discussed are distinct from the ones you're addressing. The things you speak of and I speak of are not as close as you might have thought. Which means your understanding in general is limited.
      Your perspective on the reasons "art" sells whether fine art or commercial, is limited and misses key nuances. Fine art can sell for reasons beyond fame, such as its artistic merit, emotional impact, and cultural significance. Similarly, commercial art's success isn't solely tied to a "popular formula" but also to creativity, market trends, and audience connection. More over do you not even take the service component of a designer/problem solver into perspective. I do refuse to explain the whole video again because I can read a bit of ingnorance inbetween your lines.
      It's important to engage with the full content before making such bold claims. I stand by the information presented.

      As an add-on to the other replies, I am a fine artist. I don’t take commissions or create what is already popular. I’m not famous. And my work sells to non-investor or ground-floor-investor collectors. The idea that art must already be popular to sell or that it only sells through the means you’ve listed is just not accurate and sounds like an outsider looking in, not like someone actively working in the arts. Emerging artists are often eligible to create art for public works and receive public monies for their work (for example, in Oklahoma a percentage of all public developments must be used for some kind of public art, necessitating the hiring of artists), partner with local organizations and collectives, license their work, and go through niche galleries or niche local spaces. Misinformed narratives like the one you’ve posited in your comment keep artists starving or keep them from pursuing the arts at all. I hope you’ll be more mindful in the future.
