        I joined the forum a few weeks ago and have been taking a look around. I can’t say that I’ve even scratched the surface of all the information available here.

        At the young age of 67, I’ve decided I want to draw something other than stick figures and smiley faces. I see that your drawing classroom is still open and I plan to start going through the lessons. I also have an interest in watercolor, colored pencil, nature journaling, and tapestry weaving.

                Hi, it’s nice to meet you.

                The drawing classroom is great. I still like to read through them myself from time to time.

                Enjoy the forums and welcome!

                Hello psophie – welcome!

                I’m glad to hear of your interest in developing drawing skills. They will serve you well throughout your artistic endeavors. The classroom is a great place to start but don’t lose heart when you don’t progress as rapidly as you’d like. It’s a skill and that takes time and practice to develop but anybody can learn to do it. I started this thread to encourage beginning drawers which I hope will help when you feel frustrated that things aren’t looking the way you’d like. They will get all sorted in time – trust me. :)

                    WC! is a great place to learn new things and make friends!
                    Look around and find a subject or medium you like, there is truly something for everyone here.
                    Have fun exploring lots of things to do, Learning Areas and Monthly Challenges in several forums.
                    Look at some of the forums and you’ll soon find a fit that’s right for you, or maybe several forums.
