I can't believe I didn't realize this on my own, but apparently "good" artists do warm ups. Warm ups! Just like ever other disciplined ever. The truly vexing thing about this is that I took art classes. None of the teachers suggested that I should just sit and draw straight lines or circles for ten minutes a day. In fact they seems to have contempt for that sort of thing. "Need to draw a straight line, use a ruler," they said. Except that with a ruler it takes ten seconds to put down a single line. And what happens if you want to draw a curved line. That's right. You're F@cted! Okay, that's not entirely true. I could get reliable curves by using line tools in sai. But then you're back to the, "it takes forever to draw anything," problem.

Alright. Done complaining about my own stupidity. Rant over. Learned something new. Life improved.
