A Look at my Sketchbook: Practicing

A wise artist once said (I can't remember who) that you should draw something everyday.  It doesn't matter what it is, just draw something.   I don't come close to drawing every day, but I usually make it at least once a week.  Every bit of practice helps right?

Do you have something you are practicing at?

Besides drawing, I'm practicing at being a mother.  I'm not always sure when I've got it right, but I get tons of practice anyway!

Growing up it was all about practicing the piano.  I didn't enjoy it too much because it had become a chore.  Now I'd love to have a piano to practice.... funny how your perspective changes over the years.

  1. Your drawings are beautiful! I haven't drawn much in years, but I recently bought a sketch book, with good intentions. I drew a lot until I graduated from college (many years ago!) Why do we stop doing things we love, I wonder?

  2. I like your elephants! Dad once told me to "do something you love everyday." Drawing is not something I love, but I can certainly see the wisdom and benefit of doing something that makes you happy, even something really simple like drawing, everyday.
