The Best Way to Improve at Drawing is Repetition and the 10,000 Hour Rule

The Best Way To Become a Prolific Artist.....

Is to draw one or more pages of art a day, Every Day, for The Rest of Your Life.

Seriously, think about it.

There are 365 days in a year. That's plenty of free time to draw and do 1 or more pages of art sketching a day. That would be 365 pages of artwork a year, even and that's merely from doing one page a day. I'm going with the lowest figure or page count to demonstrate a point.

What happens if you apply the 10,000 Hour Rule, and practice every day for 10 YEARS?

If you draw every day or almost every day for 10 years, at the most "unproductive rate" that would be........

3,650 pages of art or more. No small amount of artwork.

Seriously, no one's going to care if you do some crappy art here and there. Chances are you'll do your share of art that sucks, but chances are your work will be more good than bad.
