Then after that trace the outlines onto a new piece of paper and eventually try to draw it. It was easier to draw because I remembered where the lines were and how I copied the textures and colours. But hey, at the Uni my drawing skill was frowned upon and abstract or collage was praised as 'conceptual'.

Good luck with the drawing -I can only draw kiddies 'stuff' to show grandchildren what fish, animals etc look like - actually I'm not doing too badly - but they're, by far, not perfect!

MPS went to art school. All three of my kids can draw anything perfectly. My Daddy is an art teacher. I suck. You will do awesomely babe! Have you thought of doing a course to become a Tafe teacher for ceramics?

I had a lot of catching up to do here, wonderful skies again, and that little froggy is soooo cute!! And I can understand how you worry about the Tasmanian wildlife and nature, it's so breathtakingly beautiful, I think I would worry too if I lived there. What drawing is concerned, I think I am like you, but you have much more courage. At least YOU take classes!
