de hecho, una frase que me quedó muy grabada de un youtuber mexicano, Atherion, es "la inspiración llega cuando más relajado te encuentras" y, para mí, es mucho más relatable.
@@lalala-bs6ke Sí, pero puedes estar relajado cuando estas trabajando. De hecho, puedes relajarte cuando estés suficientemente familiarizado con lo que tu haces. Ambos frases tienen una conexión, para mí. (Lo siento para la español rota)
This is something ive been thinking about a lot lately. Consistent action is EVERYTHING. Its so easy to say "ill start being productive tomorrow!" "Ill just take one last lazy day, break, look at my phone" etc. Anything but NOT doing what you know you should be doing. Action is everything. You are what you do. So do something worthwhile (consistently) and your life will be worthwhile. Doing it well doesnt matter. Do it badly. Do it badly for as long as you have to. The simple act of doing is what gets you ahead and facilitates growth. Nothing is more important
I agree however don’t push yourself to do something you don’t want to do, instead try to fuel and "kickstart" your passion and everything else will follow... like exercise for example rather than hating yourself for forcing yourself to do it inspire yourself make it fun make yourself "want to" do it not "have to" Motivation is key
i don't know how you did it but you managed to make 4 minutes feel like an entire cinematic experience, AND inspire me to pick up my sketchbook for the first time in weeks. thank you chroma moma, happy drawing times to you
I think it was SeanWes on an old podcast that stated simply: "Show up every day." Don't break the chain. The goal of the calendar is to have an unbroken chain of days where you 'showed up.' And even if you break the chain (as is realistically inevitable), don't break it for 2 days in a row. And even if a longer break happens, begin again as soon as you can with the same goal. This has been helpful for me who draws in binges, as I am prone to draw almost obsessively for a while...then drop off, and almost forget about drawing for a long time. But a simple goal: just show up and create something, has helped. Whether it's masterpiece, or a piece of crap, or not even a piece at all, doesn't matter. Just keep showing up. Every day I can. Love the vid CM.
I'm smiling at this video because I have forced myself to show up for 10 min, yes, just 10, after failing to meet my initial goal of an hour. It's been couple of weeks. Now, an hour goes by so far and I feel free in those hours. It's an amazing feeling to overcome mental resistance and ego. Do bad work, as long as it's consistent. Your mind is bound to find something good soon enough.
I loved the story telling, dude. Especially the song at the end, it fits so well with the video and it's such a cool way to end it. For those who didn't understand the lyrics: "After 6 hours I found where to get off, I crossed the street, Stumbled upon the location. The door opened, And all my world hugged me Hugged me Hugged me"
Love that this channel is art focused but still has such a cinematic vibe ~ dope! Honestly needed to hear that cause this first bit describes where I'm at. Latter bit describes where I'm going 💪
this is certainly not something someone would expect from a video with such title, but it is exactly what i've been looking for. sometimes it's hard to find answers to such abstract topics, but i'm glad you made it, and i'm glad you shared it with the world. thank you. today, i will draw.
Consistecy is key, that's so true! Loved the video and the song surprised me! Here's a translation of the lyrics "After six hours I found where to get off At the street I found the place The door opened And my whole world embraced me Embraced me Embraced me"
beautiful short film ! appreciate your experimenting with new formats on your channel. saved this one to my 'For Life' playlist as the message of consistent action, self-accountability, and how these are both necessary for creativity to emerge resonated with me. also, song at the end was a treat for me as a native spanish speaker. be well :)
You are *the* most approachable artist on RU-vid to me, and I don't mean like I'd walk up to you on the street and bother you while you're doing something and enjoying your day in privacy, but for some reason I feel the most comfortable commenting on your videos versus another artist. I don't think it's about numbers, but your attitude about art and making things I think. Not that others aren't nice or cool or casual, idk, I just feel that way. Like you'd be a good friend to have. Maybe that's weird, but I don't have any art friends, so I hope it's not too weird 😅
Best way to start drawing is to not be in a rut best way to not be in a rut two 2️⃣ things... 1: DO NOT DRAW EVERYDAY you will burn yourself tf out instead on the days you decide not to draw try to find inspiration for when the time comes, and who knows maybe along this search for inspiration you may find what you’ve been looking for or best of all you may get the urge to draw. 2: DO NOT FORCE YOURSELF when your not up to it, your drawings will probably be bad. your feelings will reflect on to the page it will be sloppy and lazy, and in the worst case scenario you will get discouraged and totally lose interest in your passion.
For me it's like if its not in my routine I'll forget about it. Same with sports... if I stick to it every day, maybe some days doing something easy when I'm not feeling it, I don't forget about it. If I'm only drawing, doing Sport,... when I'm feeling like it.. I would just forget about it... hope this makes sense 😅
If you only do something when you feel inspired or feel like doing it you'll never create a habit. It feels like you don't want to do a task, but it's a trick. Once you start doing it you find it enjoyable. Like forcing yourself to go to the gym. Initialy it feels impossible , but once you get there you realize you are enjoying yourself.
I've been feeling art block lately too. It's nice to see you back with a video with how you deal with it. What sketchbook are you using? Are you still using the Traveler's Notebooks, but with a different cover?
@@ChromaMoma Awesome, thank you! I heard how great Midori paper is, but haven't tried them yet. :D I've gotten back into journaling/stationary last year and it's cool seeing the overlap with drawing and stationary on your channel ^^
When we avoid doing something we "love" , we really have to ask ourselves , do we actually love it for real , and start seeking a new possibilities , sum is drawing shouldn't be this complicated such as love
Звучит неплохо, но... это ложь. Лень и демотивация не приходят без причины. Эти причины требуют осознания и проработки. Например, если, вместо того, чтобы осознать своё неудовлетворение качеством рисунков и разобраться с объективными пробелами в своём художественном образовании, художник будет продолжать как баран упорствовать в том, чтобы высидеть своё ежедневное "drawing time" - это баранье упорство, которое всё равно ни к чему не приведёт. Тупая практика не приводит к совершенству. К совершенству приводит совершенная практика.
I often struggle with WHAT to draw… do i do studies, use a reference , observations? I love the simplistic nature of this video…. begin making a mark and from there it will grow its a sketchbook who cares!! :)
I started an auto biographical journal comic on printer paper. I just draw moments where I feel stupid, or lonely, or nice moments walking outside. I don't care about anatomy or design. I draw a stupid non-lumis potato head and it looks great for it. After that I realise I need to draw trees. Or fashion models in nice clothes, or architecture. And it's freeing
That’s so cool! I’m trying to be a bit more free with my work… not so technical like forcing myself to study anatomy or gesture when I’m not feeling it.
This is my 3rd video of yours that I saw but it is one of my favourite things I have seen on RU-vid. work work work. Have you seen these animations? This video reminded me of this clip haha ru-vid.comLcvjE8Apmfc?si=NS6wPfdgEDdR7r8X
