@zooweeeeee @antirobust i'm struggling to find it via reverse image search and clicking around, but it seems like Jeff Bezos actually used it in a presentation about Blue Origin
another way of thinking about it is – each element is better considered in relation to all the other elements. I kinda imagine the artist's mind stretching and squeezing and twisting and turning each bit to make it work better
you'll often also see that they develop a better sense of contrast – the difference between dark and light, hard and soft often becomes more pronounced
they often get better at technical details – shapes, angles, perspectives, lines, lighting... but what I like to really look out for is the introduction of nuance that they couldn't quite manage or "afford" before
One of my favorite memes from over a decade ago (!!!) was "draw this again", where artists would revisit their older work and reinterpret it
I love paying close attention to what changes and what stays the same, and to how they get better at achieving their own intent
I don’t share this to seek sympathy or validation - I’m in a very good place in my life right now, better than I dared to imagine possible. I share to demonstrate that life can change. Dramatically. Drastically. Beyond what you can imagine. Very few people appreciate this
