--@Piotr I'm in, you seem to be well-versed in the art of Environmental painting. It would be interesting to know your process! :D

--lol - yeah, its not the most congruent metaphor, but hopefully it illustrates the point. ;P

--Teaching is also super valuable for your development too, learning how to compartmentalize concepts makes you more self aware of what exactly is is that you're doing, so I wouldn't worry too much about it being "dead-time" for you developmentally. The questions students can ask you also can create opportunities to explore the craft in ways you can't draw on on your own.
28 Jul 06:19
--And there actually isn't a top. We're all still able to get lost in the labyrinth from time to time, and noone knows all of its secrets
28 Jul 06:17
--Nice metaphor. Or maybe it's like treading a labyrinth, where some of your students might know some areas better than you do, while you have a much greater general understanding of its layout.

--I'd say a doing it if thought about will help folks along, but you're not going to be the one that brings them to the top, just helping them climb better and try to help establish a lens for day-to-day success and failure. -macro, mid-level, and micro strategy for "success"
28 Jul 06:15
--people closer to the ground are focusing on that next step and what that looks like, where you are further ahead, you're judging how acceptable by what you know it takes looking to the top and really this sort of thing will help them on their journey to that top

--I'd plan a structure of how you're oging to pace people through it and have a intentional duration of time to work in and around. Teaching is a skill too. The last few mentorship's I've been a part of ended before they began because the artist doubted whether they were qualified, or not, but that being said its like climbing a mountain:
28 Jul 06:12
--like making the group focus around making forms read the way you want them to. That seems to be the big thing everyone is trying to accomplish, whether they are doing it with rendering or with linework. And it encompasses anything from figuredrawing to landscapes to industrial design.
28 Jul 06:05
--I think focusing on one thing at a time or doing some kind of broad all-around mentoring group could both work.
28 Jul 06:03
--@neo: both, I'd like to cover anything essential, though I need to improve on my architecture skills before that as well. I was thinking about ilustration mentoring as well but I don't think I have necessary skill for that, I render well but my anatomy and other fundamentals are pretty bad.
28 Jul 05:44
--anytime where the community helps itself out I'm all for and I agree with Dennis, you've got a good foothold to show peeps what's up
28 Jul 04:53
--I think you could help a lot of people out with that. You seem to know what you're doing with environments in general. I watched a few streams, the way you start some of your environments with abstract shape building was pretty interesting.
28 Jul 04:35
--hey guys just a quick question: would you be interested in environment/rendering mentoring program if I created one?
