Added 2022-09-12 21:02:41 +0000 UTCHere's Your Suggested Homework Assignment:
If we really want to have the best chance of achieving our goals and that means we need to build Motivation into our Art Practice...
More joy...
Less fear.
One way is to join a group of like-minded creative folks. It's the reason I started my free Facebook group Steve Huston Draws From Life --

I encourage to join if you haven't already. Make some new friends
But you can also reacquaint yourself with our Old Friends.
That's what I call the old master. They are here to help. They ache to help.
We just need to spend some time with them.
Learn to listen to what they're trying to tell us.
And leverage their genius around what we struggle with that they've already brilliantly solve ages ago.
So your homework this week is to determine to looking at an old masterwork for at least 10 minutes three times each week. Look, sketch, compare one master's solution with another's.
It can be about the shapes used, the values added, the emotions evoked--
Anything that challenges you, why not seek out the greatest solutions in human history to help you overcome?
And why not do that often?
Have fun, my friend!
