The “Takeaway Practice”

Speaking of takeaways…

Consider starting a regular “takeaway practice.”

For any art you consume, immediately afterwards, without reading any external reviews, write down at least three takeaways from it. These can be good or bad as you didn’t necessarily have to like the art. (It might be good to keep a notebook or “art journal”, and log all your entries by date.)

This practice will deepen your appreciation of all art and help develop your own personal taste and sensibility; a must for any artist.

P.S. – Bonus points if you share your thoughts with a friend.
