When I was a little little boy, my parents gave me the toys I wanted.
As everyone know, it's impossible to get all the toys in the world !
I really really wanted the things I couldn't own especially. You know what I meant.
I don't care now but when I was a little child, it really did.
Then perhaps it's the reason why I start drawing myself
----- I try to draw the things I like but couldn't have.
I'd feel I had already owned the thing I draw when completing the drawing and very enjoy the process.
The drawings were colorful in these life period.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I was about 8 to 10,I started collecting cartoon cards (gaming cards).
I started want to draw everything I thought was beautiful,amazing, etc. even though I had already owned it.
I didn't know why I start using the sketching pencil.
The drawings then became white and black.
I just focused on the similarity compared with the original pic.
First several yrs, I just drew cartoons. then "real" things.
After 12 yrs old, almost no cartoons. start the combination of color and sketching pencils.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drawing Skills?! Shortage !!!!
Thus I always found something wrong when I finished the drawing......= (
Later I found the importance to make the draft.
I remember one day in school , maybe about 10 yrs ago, I attented a drawing course after school.
We had to sketch a pineapple. You know there are many "squares" on it.
I drew them one by one in detail trying to "copy", but I failed to complete it on time....
The the teacher told us just to draft by drawing lines to give crosses in a circle. then you see the squares.
So fast and easy to have a draft !!! according to the characteristics of the object.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately, I almost lost my enthusiasm for drawing because these yrs I find these things are unnecessary.
I become not interested in collection.
I don't mind I can't own anything.
Such as I like cats, I would feel happy if I know they can live in their own way.
It's OK can see them well.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyway, now I left , just the ability to draw.
Without a reason, a target, a mission, a competition, homework, a push.........
I can't draw.
I've try to draw something. Looking at the pencil and paper, thinking for a long time.
Nothing decided. As I could try to draw different things
but at that moment I didn't know how to choose. I was confused.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, I don't want to waste my drawing ability.
If I can utilize it well, may be can act as a daily skill such as writing.
Not just deal with words, but also pics.
moreover, I want to train my right brain and start drawing with my left hand.
trying to recall the memory, trying to draw with imagination.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drawing can be very easy for everyone.
But everything have a start.
