I think tuts are good for several reasons. One, for the artist its a self reference. Also in order to explain something to someone else you have to know it really well for yourself. Now from the fan/struggling artist/"guy in awe of your ability though you may sit in awe of someone elses" side of things, tutorials give us inspiration, insight into how your particular work is created and ideas of how we can do things. I use them all the time as visual "liquid courage" for when I'm approaching something I've never done before and feel that timid ultra-noob feeling. It helps me quell my doubts and gives me a starting place when I feel completely lost on how to proceed.

So please continue to share!!

A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened.

Ask any artist about “emptiness&#x 201D; and they’ll tell you about the constant recurring nightmarish emptiness they must face down almost every day as a part of their vocation: the blank space that they must fill. Whether he’s a painter facing a blank canvas or she’s...
