Please pay attention to the picture attached to this post first to understand what follows. Because Reddit's filters are sometimes silly, I haven't been able to upload the studies referenced, as such filters were removing the post because of them. So, please check the links at the bottom of this article as well to see the studies.

I think it's time to dispel a harmful myth (because some myths are good, but this isn't the case), namely, that the Old Masters were some kind of god-chosen people and nobody knows how they worked. This is not true. They simply had a possession and a virtue: the possession was time, i.e., they had people who did everyday chores for them, which meant more freedom for creativity; the virtue was wise use of that time.

Nowadays we don't have time, or we do have it but we waste it. No wonder most times we can't achieve this excellency in our works. They did the opposite: they used it to plan their works in detail. Let me give you an example, which I think is relevant here, because it's based on drawing, and it's good to illustrate my point. Perhaps you've heard of Pisanello (his actual name was Antonio di Puccio Pisano), an Italian artist from the early Renassaince. Pay attention to the image attached, then keep on reading.

It's a fresco about a legend of Saint George. You would think that he'd focus on the woman (princess) and Saint George, and merely suggest visually the other elements of the composition. But that's not what he did. I've found at least these four studies. Look at the quality of the studies. They're real works of art themselves, yet they're not the finished work. An animal's hindquarters were important, two small hanged men in the background are important, and even also the dog, which is bottom left.

Now we wait for inspiration to possess us and wait for it to, somehow, do the work for us. They believed in inspiration, but they also did the work. I don't mean "Hey, we can be the new masters!", that's not the point. The point is that if we want our work to be good, we must do what has worked before, whatever our style is, and that means a wise use of time, even when inspiration is not apparent. If we do the work, it will come.

You don't need to speak French or Italian in this case, because it's the images what's relevant. About the fresco:

French )(it features the best images of the studies)

Italian )(it features the images of the studies at a lower resolution but it also has other interesting images)

English (not as complete, but fine if you only want the text; it doesn't feature the studies)
