Learning, focus, art, 10000 hour rule and entrepreneurship

[Adam Lina]

I think focusing on one thing at a time is good. Like you said learning gesture, perspective and costumes for a specific idea. But as a bigger picture I want to be able to be at least proficient enough in character design and environment design in multiple genres. If I do that I might not be amazing at one thing but for example, if a futuristic environment job comes along I wont have to turn it down because I only do fantasy character design. Being too specialized in that regard would be pretty limiting and I would think get pretty boring always doing the same kind of stuff.
