Notes to myself about the proper way to art

1. Start with a good sketch. If it's not good, start again.

2. Don't rush progress. Take your time and let the drawing happen at it's own pace.

3. If you're stuck on a drawing, start a new one. You can come back to it later. Or not!

4. Remember, it's okay if not every drawing is a masterpiece.

5. Don't worry too much about what other people will think of your drawing. You don't even have to show it to anyone if you don't want to. Draw what you feel like drawing.

6. Don't try to define yourself as an artist. And don't compare your art to others'.

7. Try new things. But stick with what works for you.

8. Try to sketch every day. Even if it doesn't result in a completed drawing.

9. Remember to change your pen nibs and clean your tablet!

10. Don't get yourself down about not being productive. If you force yourself to work more than you really want to, it won't be fun anymore.
