[Afterwords]
Drawing is a marvellous experience. From the initial learning stage, you will choose a favorite style and join that school.
It’s like in fighting mangas, once I reached a certain level, I found that I’m at the bottom tier on that level. When I learned enough to be able to make judgments, I would notice how ultimate photo-realistism can expose the flaw in anyone’s art, while the seemingly simple art with a solid foundation can still be irreproachable.
Artists have their own field of view. They can only understand it enough to teach (themselves?), but can’t really explain it.
The more I improve at my art, the more I feel inadequate at it. It’s really marvellous if I’m treating it earnestly.
