I found this site and loved the way it is laid out. That it is a skill is something I can believe. Since I have always tried drawing with some positive results, but not consistent results.

I have made a commitment to practice every day and have continued to practice.

I love shading with graphite pencils and plan on working with pastel pencils next.

I have retired and have a part time job to pay for my hobbies. (grins) I also make purses and have made a couple of quilts.

Thank you for this wonderful site and the new idea that this is a skill that I can learn!
