# About me

Hey passenger! :D If you like anything in my Gallery i have to tell you: U can do that 2!

Learning to draw and paint is mostly an implicit process. It is hard to tell other people how or why you do things in the way you do. From my experience quite a lot things also aren't learned by just doing them - it is often necessary to take not the straightest approach. In learning to draw tiniest details it is the case, that you will get better the more you do it. However for example abilities like drawing authentic animals from any perspective or maybe 'just' getting a vivid line probably wont develop too much by simply and only trying it. I think this fact - trying something and not noticing the expected improvement - leads to demotivation of so many people. At least it affected me and i stopped drawing for several years, until some circumstances that in hindsight really changed my life happened. By coincidences i got back to drawing and by coincidences i learned things i couldn't do before and probably wouldn't have learned by simply trying them. With these experiences about drawing and also learning itself i started to see concrete things that i can try out and improve, in contrast to the previous 'fuck i cant draw photorealistic people from imagination what now'. Although i still am far away from the latter one i tried out many things, things that worked and things that didn't and, very important, at some point i started to write down what i learned and how i did it, because i noticed that this knowledge otherwise relatively quick disappears. I recalled what i have learned and to some degree figured out what is based on what. I think i am able to give a guide of what to do and in which order to be able to draw about like me, starting at a point of 'i like drawing. i can redraw anime figures or things and they look ok' (And this is one thing that comes by simply doing it ;).
Hopefully in the near future i do a YT tutorial series in which i explain everything i have so far. I already made a plan for 15+ episodes.
I really want to share my experience to anyone interested because i don't forget the feeling of looking at some peoples art and thinking icanneverdothat, whycantidothat, whydontdotheseartiststellushowtheydoit, etc.
If you have any advice or want some, just say it!
Keep drawing!
