The first thing I was introduced to as a small child was a pencil, paper and a father who could draw. He would sit with me for hours doodling away and my life long love of drawing was borne. I have recently been feeling extremely lost with my creativity, lacking any motivation to sew, draw or paint. After my recent trip to the Edward Burne-Jones exhibition I decided to get the pencils, paint and paper out and dabble in the art of drawing people. I have never been very good at drawing people and like most things in my life I am a very much self taught. This week I have been researching how to draw the human form. Its a very slow progress and its not going so well I have to say but I am enjoying lots and lots of utube tutorials on the subject. I have also being drawling over one of my favourite artist Leilani Joy. I love her stylised images and can only dream that one day I will find my own style of drawing. However, for now I am quite happy just dipping my toe and enjoying a whole new creative experience.
