Talking with your hands is an ethnic thing. A lot of grassroots Black and Brown people do this. It is part of our culture. It is a sign of honesty and compassion. You can also find European people who do the same thing. Stop hating on him. If you are that distracted by his hands it says more about you and your ability to focus.

@ajbreezy11
@ajbreezy11 5 жыл бұрын
People say time and experience, which are both true statements, but they don’t go into depth on what this means. In my opinion, the best way to progress more efficiently is to be a conscious master of your art. Analyze your work after completing it, and be proud of it, but never satisfied with it. Look at the mistakes you’ve made and ask yourself why that mistake was made and how you can fix it by finding someone who has done it correctly. For example, if you’ve painted the sock liner and it comes out stiff. Recognize that and find out how to keep the material soft. Be a problem solver and use MULTIPLE sources. But more important than all of what I just said, is to be an active learner. Try to find out as much as you possibly can BEFORE making the mistake. Watch how to's, be observant, research. That’s actually what I’m doing right now. I started my art journey in fine arts, you know, graphite, charcoal, etc. I’ve decided in recent months that I want to start customizing shoes as a new endeavor. But I’ve been studying how to do so for YEARS. In fine arts, it appears to others that I’m just going long stretches of time without drawing and then I’m magically ten times better than I was. But the whole time, while I wasn’t doing, I was observing. My eyes are the essence of my gift. My hands are the translators of what I see. Everyone’s different, but I thought this would help you see it from a deeper perspective.
