    I think Gi also had the advantage of a photographic memory. A friend of mine introduced me to him at Angouleme festival, and commented that Gi recognized him every time they met, though they never traded more than a friendly greeting. Then two years later, I was passing Gi's table in at ECCC Seattle, and he pointed at me in recognition, and smiled in greeting. He had remembered me from two years before, on the other side of the world, from nothing more than a friendly exchange of greetings, the sort he must exchange a hundred times a day at probably dozens of festivals per year.
    So when I see him accurately reproduce the complexities of motorcycles and scooters, or perfectly capture natural wrinkles in cloth, animal anatomy, specific types of architecture, etc, all from memory, I simple marvel at his gift of perfect recall. He was a true one-of-a-kind master, who clearly supplemented his natural gift with incredible discipline. We'll never see anyone like him again in our lifetimes. In addition, he was warm, friendly, and real. RIP

      I always remember people regardless of the interaction. Only narcs don't. Kim Jung Gi was talented, a workhorse with a tremendous work ethic, but ultimately he was just a man. Have you read the first issues of Berserk vs the latest ones drawn by Kentaro Miura? Practice and more importantly, deliberate practice goes a long way. I have dedicated my life to learning arts for the last 3 years and I have learned more in these three years than the previous decades drawing "for fun". Art is a sport and there are outlying talents in sports, but it's very rare.

      You know...I"m right there with you. As the youngest of four, now married, it took me until i met my wife to realize that I was doing a lot of things to make others happy and not myself. I liked art. But, I didn't have the support i needed and thought it was not for me because i didn't have the support. Fast forward a few years in my marriage I had a choice of either going with SWE or Art...I chose SWE as that would make my family happy. I went to a bootcamp to get into SWE.
      Just last week, I stumbled upon a video from @ergojosh that resonated with me and made me realize what i had given up. Over the weekend i started looking for everything i could to learn art. I spoke with my wife, knowing full well how supportive she has been, and then today, I watched this video. And yes "Don't ask yourself what the world needs, ask yourself what your passion is. Because the world needs more people with passion." struck a cord so vividly that, I now know that art is what excites me, it's what truly makes me feel joy in life. It gives me a purpose where anything other than does not.
      So thank you for this video; I'll keep this video in mind and come back to it when I need to and share it with others whom I personally know that are in the same boat.

    This is a great lesson. As a lifelong pianist, and beginner artist, your video reminded me of the great jazz pianist Bill Evans. Bill explained learning a part of the whole process until that particular part was internalized and unconscious, then move to the next part and repeat that until it becomes unconscious. I hadn’t really thought of this process applying to drawing as well. It makes perfect sense.
    Bill Evans on learning jazz
    “The whole process of learning the facility of being able to play jazz is to take these problems from the outer level in, one by one, and to stay with it at a very intense, conscious-concentration level until that process becomes secondary and subconscious. Now, when that becomes subconscious, then you can begin concentrating on that next problem, which will allow you to do a little bit more.
    I don’t consider myself as talented as many people but in some ways that was an advantage because I didn’t have a great facility immediately so I had to be more analytical and in a way - that forced me to build something.
    Most people just don’t realize the immensity of the problem and, either because they can’t conquer it immediately, think that they haven’t got the ability, or they’re so impatient to conquer it that they never do see it through. If you do understand the problem then you can enjoy your whole trip through.
    People tend to approximate the product rather than attacking it in a realistic, true way at any elementary level - regardless of how elementary - but it must be entirely true and entirely real and entirely accurate. They would rather approximate the entire problem than to take a small part of it and be real and true about it. To approximate the whole thing in a vague way gives you a feeling that you’ve more or less touched the thing, but in this way you just lead yourself toward confusion and ultimately you’re going to get so confused that you’ll never find your way out.
    It is true of any subject that the person that succeeds in anything has the realistic viewpoint at the beginning and [knows] that the problem is large and that he has to take it a step at a time and that he has to enjoy the step-by-step learning procedure. They’re trying to do a thing in a way that is so general [that] they can’t possibly build on that. If they build on that, they’re building on top of confusion and vagueness and they can’t possibly progress. If you try to approximate something that is very advanced and don’t know what you’re doing, you can’t advance.”

    Master Kim would be very happy if he sees this video. You seem to capture his drawing principle very well.
    He always emphasize the importance of genuine interest, deep observation and understanding the object. Understand the structure, functionality, material, texture, or even smell of it.
    Observe from all different angles until you can draw from any angles. That’s how he studied perspective.
    His memory is his life long practice of continuous observation. Most importantly, he simply enjoys drawing. Not as a profession but as his hobby. That’s his secret of not having an art block. Be simple minded and light hearted. Just love drawing and keep on drawing.

    I tried this approach of focusing on one thing at a time with music production, but it didn't work. I'd spend a lot of time learning music theory, then practicing writing simple music, then learning about synthesis and sound design, then practice making beats and so on.
    When I'd eventually try to bring it all together and make a track from start to finish, I'd forgotten a lot of what I'd learned, because I didn't keep practicing things I'd spent time learning earlier on in my journey. Sure, I'd spent months learning music theory, but then I stopped to focus on something else.
    I was also spending so much time learning and practicing fundamentals to avoid the frustration and disappointment that would entail from being unable to reach my expectations when I tried to make a full track. My practice habits were an avoidance mechanism to a large extent. It was also discouraging to invest so much time practicing something with little creative output; not much to show for it, since I'd been doing exercises and study for a long period.
    I think if I had just tinkered about and picked up some know-how along the way through trial and error I'd have actually gotten somewhere. I think this is one factor that gives youngsters a creative edge. At a younger age you tend to be less critical, more curious and less likely to get in your own way.
    Even if you mostly focus on one thing at a time, I think you do need to keep regularly practicing what you've already learned and applying it to actual creative work. You can't just drop practicing one fundamental as you start practicing another, and you need to regularly put what you've learned to work and create something.

    Fully agreed. I started to make notes a few weeks ago and now I feel more confident when it comes to anatomy sculpting. The process of education is hard, but it's the way more effective than just sculpting or drawing using references.
    The point is that when you write something down, you activate multiple areas of your cortex at the same time: visual, motor and associative cortex. That all improves and accelerates the education process. It's always better to write than to type.

    I agree with the notes. Making notes is extremely useful not only because it helps you remember the process, but also because it makes it easier to understand for YOU. When you're in a class and listen to your teacher, you're trying to memorize the words your teacher is saying. When making notes of those words, you're "translating them to your own language", so your brain will process that information way easier.

    Narrowing my focus is helping me find the bits that are my own style and I’ve been searching for that… well I don’t know if that search every ends because my art will change as I mature. I like your approach of training versus copying. Thank you for being generous with your wisdom.

    I think there are so many great points to this.
    From an educational standpoint there are several awesome conversation starters, such as the "Active learning" concept, as well as subjects of "Creative block" and the "Unfair advantage" every person has based on their own background.
    This is an amazing source of knowledge I'll be coming back to, for sure.

    This was an incredible video. I just came out of a huge art block after doing commissions for months. I really couldn't figure out why but I think you told it to me perfectly. Commissions push me to do my best. Character design, perspective, anatomy, proportion, form, clothing, expression, lightning... All of that at once. No wonder I'd become exhausted after doing it non stop for months. It's too much. I'm giving myself a break for October so I can finally focus and take things one at a time for Inktober. Thanks a lot. I really hope this will aid me in the long term. Brilliant talk

    I really liked this perspective on teaching yourself art. I realize that patience is a huge part of learning and now I know that I should try to focus on one topic instead of trying to get good at everything. It's just so hard to choose what to focus on when you like everything

    • @adhamomar702
      @adhamomar702 Před rokem

      Some times chess players instead of looking at where they are and where they want to go, they work backwards, they look at where they want to go and try to connect where they are to that.
      So in your case when you are struggling with what to chose. Don’t look at art components. Instead look at the type of artist you want to resemble. Then make your art components (skills) built in a way that make you head towards that direction. If you want to be like Kim Jung gi, do as dr draw said, focus on constructive drawing. Watch this video again, it’s intended to give you clarity of vision and a good road map.
      I was like you, it gave me a simple straight forward direction.
      Try to understand the video, you will get your road map, you will be less confused.

      In terms of imagining this as time travel and alternative timelines? Yes. 🙂
      Perhaps a lighter analogy
      might be deciding the shape and size you want a plant to become,
      then pruning and trimming according to plan
      over the course of time.
      An artist is the plant.
      The bits of training not trimmed off
