Thanks so much @surfdog. There are so many styles of drawing. I admire freedom of expression in drawing and painting and would love to draw more quickly and at times I've been forced to (as in life drawing classes.)
But in coming to what is true to my heart, I find I love the searching process of drawing, so my drawings tend to be very detailed ~ Which does take A LOT of time.
I used to teach drawing and so I know the skills and techniques can be taught. So then all you need is the time to do it. Hope you'll be able to do that someday ~ Just for the experience and what this can give you.
Yes. Drawing can be a very stilling practice. The quieter you are, the more focused you can be, the more you will see ~ Which for me produces the best drawing. 🦋
