There are no mistakes in art if you're happy with the product.ĭon’t give up even if you think others are better than you. I chose to ignore and still outline to this day. I had a teacher that told me to stop outlining everything. It’s the process, not the product that counts. Without further ado, here is the full list of advice we received:
HAVE FUN: Art is fun! Enjoy the process!. 
Sticking to subjects, themes and mediums that are appealing to you will result in a more enjoyable experience.
DRAW FOR YOU:Draw what makes you happy and what you're interested in, not what you think others want to see. Don't be discouraged by the early stages! You may think it's not working, but often it's just not finished yet. Not every piece you make will be a masterpiece, but keep trying and you'll see improvement over time. BE PERSISTENT & DON'T GIVE UP:This can be tied to the first piece of advice about practicing, but the more you keep at it, the better you'll get. Once you find your groove, you'll enjoy the process of making art more which will be reflected in your work. EXPERIMENT:Try different styles, mediums, surfaces and subjects until you find what works best for you. See our helpful Paper Media Guide that tells you which mediums work best on which papers. It will make a difference in the outcome of your work. USE QUALITY MATERIALS:Practicing and developing art skills is important, but to take artwork to the next level, make sure you're using quality materials and the right mediums on the right surfaces. Everyone is also at a different stage in their artistic journey. Everyone has their own unique, individual style. DON'T COMPARE: Looking at other artists for inspiration is great, but don't compare your work to others and let it get you down. Keep all your artwork even if you don't like it so you can see the improvement over time. PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE:Draw something every day, even if it's just a doodle. There were many themes that repeated themselves, so first we pulled out a few of the main highlights. You may just find the inspiration or breakthrough tidbit you've been looking for. 
We asked artists "What's the best piece of art-related advice you've been given?" and received an incredible amount of valuable feedback that's worth reading through.
