Spending at least half of art time for having fun, experimentation, trying painting, watercolor, pencils, even sculpting! Also getting your creative ideas out without worrying about the result. Doing constant exercises isn't going to be a good time for a lot of people. Stretch your wings.

The other half is the "work" half and that's reading lessons, doing exercises, making art to the very best of your ability applying your learning, and learning from other classes, courses, books, whatever.

This advice is given for following the lessons at drawabox.com, but it's good to spend time on having fun with art no matter what you're learning from.
