How to work on art projects with clients.
-Subject: How to handle Art clients.
It will be the best thing in the world if you can get paid drawing the things you like right? I believe that’s every artist’s ultimate goal, but yet before you go there you will encounter clients paying you money which you need to survive and of cause in return they will be expecting you deliver the things they want, Yet how to you achieve this is an art of it’s own.

The Best asset of an artist.
-Subject: Learn how to use our asset.
What is the most valuable asset of an artist? Is it the eye or the drawing hand? although both are definitely very important. The best asset is gonna be Time.

How I wasted 14,600 hours on drawing.
Subject: The 10,000 hour rule.
I started drawing from a young age around 5, And I’ve spent most of my time in school drawing, All my workbook and worksheets from school are full of drawings, My teacher will take my drawings and throw them away which is fine since I am the ‘I hate my work’ type. I notice training what I want is way more important then anything school is teaching. Luckily I got into an art focused college but even you are art focused in Hong Kong it only means four extra art class per week not like Math you have lessons everyday. If I take the lunch hour away and say 4 hours of drawing at school everyday plus weekends 10 years of primary plus college gives me around 14,600 hours on drawing.

Ten years has passed but his art is looking better then ever, His art style is masculine and aggressive, the beauty of violence and sex can been seen in many of his work. Today I’d dissect his art and analyse how he gives that aggressive taste to his works.
