Your drawings are so charming! I love them. And powerful thoughts here about art as craftsmanship. 💕

Thank you! Your note that it is a skill is something powerful, as well. I made art daily for seven years, and it changed me in more ways than acquiring skill as an artist. I have no talent. Just sheer determination and persistence.

That’s very inspiring to me to hear! Such character and persistence is always more impressive to me than most so-called talents in the art industry today.

There are so many benefits to drawing! I think everyone should learn just for them, even if they never become skilled. It’s so calming, you’re using different parts of your brain, and you’re really seeing the world, in a way most never do. Yours show a lot of that calmness and clear perception. Lovely!
