With no formal training in art, I so often think where do I begin?? So often I have been told the way to progress is to practice, practice and practice some more. An accomplished artist once told me 2 hours of practice per day and you can be good at anything. Really? Anything?! That is very encouraging.
Well, I must say, I practice each day, and keep an active sketchbook, paint whenever I have the chance, but only recently I picked up a book I found on drawing techniques, I am only half way through and have learned so much already. Different paper, shading techniques, measuring guides, so much I never knew.
I will continue the practice, but what a difference a little guidance makes.
Don't get me wrong, I have art books, but I really think at this point, some focused coaching would be a great direction to take.
Any books, videos, workshops you would like to share with me?!
Could coaching be a help to you at this point of your journey?
Thank You so much Diana. I pulled out some old sketchbooks the other day and it is encouraging to see how the drawing has improved with practice :) Sometimes it is hard to see the progress and your words mean so much. Just googled Cathy Johnson's art and watched a few painting videos of hers on YouTube. Love her style! I will be following her as well!
