    Glad Proko summed up the most important point. Everyone desires a built-in excuse to not reach their potential... some magic power that they don't have any control over. The fact is, he simply draws more than everyone. Anyone reading this could become a master artist, but they make the decision every day not to live up to that potential. Even being hyper-observational is a side-effect of drawing constantly. Go draw something you random youtube comment reader!

    • @pastadecoca
      @pastadecoca 6 років тому +28

      Thanks for the homework! Here's one for you: Look up the term obsession. That dogmatic cadence in both the video and your comment is really disturbing to the otherwise great content. Yeah he draws a lot, we get it.

    • @sinixdesign
      @sinixdesign 6 років тому +385

      No need to feel attacked. No one is saying your life has more or less value if you become a master artist. The fact is, lots of people want to know what it takes... and the answer is, it does take obsession. It's up to you if that's good or bad. Obviously, I see the positive in it.

      a chess grandmaster sees the way the pieces are laid on the board and immediately draw from memory of what should come next. They've seen almost literally every combination that nothing almost surprises them.
      Think about building a vocabulary and then using them in your daily conversations. It's like that for these masters...ofc with vocabulary some people might just invent words like hice (a made up plural for "house" because "mice" is a plural for "mouse") and it might catch people off and disorient them a little.

      Actually, the Japanese fandom for Kim came to be when Murata started praising him on twitter in March 26, 2012.
      Murata: "I've just seen the absolute last word on inking. So there are so many geniuses in the world whom I've not seen yet... *I've decided, I must become as good as him by the time I become 40 years old!"*
      Japanese fans started buying Kim's illustration books after that.

    Whenever I loss motivation or think ''dang, how I was supposed to get better?'' I always look either this video or some Kim Jung Gi's archived livestream.
    He was the reason I started, and his passing was the reason I almost stopped drawing.
    I don't think I will ever see an artist like him on my lifetime. I don't think there has ever been someone like him, or will ever be.
    But I'm grateful that I lived on a time when we could all watch him draw.

    Like he just said, no secret in learning how to draw:
    1 - Draw every single hour, every single minute, every single second. Find excuses to draw more instead of finding excuses to do useless stuff;
    2 - Learn the fundamentals, they will help you to improve in every aspect of your art;
    3 - Draw the things that you like and things you don't like. Both are important;
    4 - No more ideas? Back to studies. Also draw what is in front of you, as long as you're drawing, you're progressing and improving other drawing skills.
    There ya go. It won't work only for drawing but for other things like cooking, maths, etc. The more you the better you get.
    Good luck guys👍👍👍👍

I actually got to meet him when he visited my college a couple years later which is a memory I will cherish forever. I personally believe that Kim Jung Gi was the greatist modern living artist by far, no one can do what he could do. And not just from his pure drawing skills but in the way that he has inspired all of us. I could not believe what I was reading when I found out that he passed today, he was a hero for all of us who are studying art.

      I don't think that's quite accurate. That's not his secret. Admittedly it is the bread and butter, and many people want to ignore that, and look for what we might call a secret but what they really want is a *shortcut*.
      Another thing to consider though is that self-knowledge is rarely, if ever, complete. That is, the idea that we are all rational thinking machine the fully understand why we do what we do isn't necessarily true. In fact, I levels of self-knowledge aren't even necessarily correlated with great skill and talent I think they can be, but they might not be. In other words, this guy could be a supremely talented artist and not really know why he is. Of course he understands the technical aspects of how to draw, and can explain his technique and so on, but the Deep almost metaphysical roots of his talent may very well be something that eludes him, it may be just as much a secret to him as it is to us.

    It was an amazing experience to see him perform when he came to my university. I felt inspired and I was in awe when he showed us his sketchbook filled to the brim with so many things, both imagined and in-the-scene drawings. He usually draws his paper and pen or brush in the foreground to show he was there in person.
    I remember the presentation classroom filled with so many art students and other students from other majors just to watch him. He showed us how he approached perspective, points of view and though it was late and I remember feeling a bit sleepy, I did not want to miss anything.
    The next day, he visited my illustration class and it was so amazing that we could all draw on the same paper as him. It was so fun working on the banner with him, I will never forget it!

      I stressed this because people will often use biology as a cop out. I only use biological arguments when it's impossible to explain something otherwise. I am not great with memory, but I have been building a visual library over time and can do something similar in a small scale when I couldn't before. I imagine that with more practice I will achieve something similar based on this trajectory.

Having talent doesn't mean that someone will instantly be a good artist but someone with no talent wont be able to just grind themselves into being the next kim jung gi.
