I wondered if the same approach to learning MIT classes and languages could also apply to art.
Youre going to say yes, but the answer is really no. Yes, you can become proficient in the technical aspects of art by immersing yourself in it. Thats just a question of practice hours. No, you cannot develop your own style or innovate or understand what it means to find the humanity in art by spending a few months refining your technique. You can become quite a good mimic, but at the end of the day mimicry doesnt matter without vision. Its just a nice little parlour trick
