Does trying to "master" art lead to stagnation?

those things are done to help you understand how something works. when you see a tutorial of a leg and they draw every single little muscle, bone indentation and value on it it doesnt mean thats what you have to do every single time you draw a leg. those things are put there for your own reference so that the next time you draw a leg, you go "oh, the calves would be flexing and protruding at this angle, so the contour line should look like this"

That's not what I asked you fucking retard.

first off, who is sycra and why are you assuming he's stagnating?

and second, what you're describing just sounds like putting in time to understand things. 20 pages isn't a lot, it's just grinding. It's actually sounds quite impressive.

that anon is trying to tell you that different components can be broken down into simple contours of shapes that shouldn't be taking you considerable amount of time to "master"
don't even know why you're so mad

>>3079373
just a guess but it sounds like he is a scrub who is planning way too far ahead.

Is everyone here retarded? Obviously, everything can be broken down into dime components. What I'm asking is whether it leads to stagnation when you focus on these simple components for too long. Like just drawing hands for a month as opposed to doing everthing at once

let me turn that back on you. are you retarded? thats not a complex question. You cant figure it out on your own?

and for your reference, my retarded anon, your answer is in this thread. your own thread which you created without any aim, apparently.

>What I'm asking is whether it leads to stagnation when you focus on these simple components for too long
im trying to tell you that you shouldnt be focusing such a huge amount of time on one particular thing in the first place. what you are supposed to do, like i said, is learn construction by breaking things down into simpler shapes, and the way to know how to break something down into a simpler shape like an arm is to know where the muscles and bones are located, not that you have to draw those muscles and bones every time you draw an arm. but if you want to waste months on end drawing arms to "master" them, then go ahead.

yes
