"When my daughter was about seven years old, she asked me one day what I did at work. I told her I worked at the college - that my job was to teach people how to draw. She stared back at me, incredulous, and said, ‘You mean they forget?’" Quote by Howard Ikemoto.
When people find out I am an artist they often tell me that they can't draw, not even stick figures. I ask them if they took piano lessons, or if someone taught them to cook or use a computer. Drawing is a practice. Like everything else, you get the most pleasure and results by doing it often.
