How not to get stuck in your development

What the talk is about

Roman Guro draws on years of teaching young artists to explain why artists get stuck and how to avoid it. Key ideas: accept new approaches before judging them and learn from any source, including adjacent fields such as comics, film and screenwriting; set yourself learning tasks in conditions you rarely practice (lighting, palette, silhouette) and don't overwork each one, so you get more variety; rely on reality by drawing from life and use photos carefully, since they push you toward copying. He also advises sharing work and asking for feedback, taking approaches rather than minor details from critique, and analyzing more in order to draw faster. The Q&A touches on the color wheel, motivation and AI. Useful for beginners and artists who feel stagnant.
