So after a great deal of thought I have decided to try to learn how to draw. The more I thought about it, the more it just seemed the right path to take. I have a strong feeling that finding time to draw will be easier for me than learning the guitar, as I can literally draw wherever I can bring pencils and paper. In addition I have always wished I was more artistic but never really put any effort into learning how; I had always just thought of it as something you are or are not born with. I am going to go get some good pencils and some decent paper, as well as begin searching the internet for any resources that will help me become a better artist. I am not sure what my first subject will be, however I am thinking I will start with something like a house or landscape. Who knows, if I get good enough, maybe I will even be able to get my parents to post my work on their refrigerator....JK.

Thank you for your post Mr. West! I think you made a great decision, even if it's not learning guitar. Drawing is an art that I also appreciate. Perhaps a house would be a great first drawing, as you mentioned. I think a landscape would make a fantastic second choice, or even as a final product. I am curious though, will you do all your drawings in pencil, or are you going to try other media like chalk or crayon?

Hey Mr. West, I like the choice in drawing. To be honest this kind of makes me want to switch my 20time. I am by no means good drawer, but I like the idea of diversity that this topic can present. I agree with you that this will probably be less time consuming, and I would suggest a house to start. I did a drafting class in high school and it is surprisingly not as difficult as you might think.
