>>7221356just set a minimum you want to do in a day and otherwise immerse yourself in your work. If you're having fun working on a piece you shouldn't be worrying about how long, but instead something more like, "I have to fit in these obligations so I have to take a break for a while"
Ok so I know this might be considered a bit unorthodox but I just draw. Pen in hand and I'm stroking my canvas you feel me. None of that gay shit. None. Even made it out the hood my N.
>>7221432>>7221495keeping yourself accountable is the fastest way to improve. I get it, though, if you don't care about that.
>>7221356I use android notes and have cataloged my hours every day for the past three years.
>>7221507post your hours, please. also, your workjust for curiousity's sake
>>7221524Sure, earliest I started keeping track of my hours was in 2020 but phone's notes weren't formatted correctly so properly structured dates start in January 2021.Its title starts with the Month, then the brackets are the hours accrued during that month, and the last bracket are tallied missed days of drawing. Anytime spend that's less than half an hour would be considered a missed day.The body of the note keeps track of specific day of Month with the next number after the "th" being the hours spent drawing that day.Every hour is added until a final End of Year total is calculated for each year. 2021 had 794 hours practiced, of that about 66.5 hours a month or 2½ hours a day. Goal is to incrementally increase hours drawing every year.
