Hm, another drawing thread....
Well I wish I had taken lessons, but I've always been egotistical and decided my raw talent would be enough....Then I quit after going to college and seeing what was possible VS what i was capable of just destroying a rather small population of artists in my terrible high school.
I decided to give my daughter a better foundation and luckily she doesn't seem to possess her mother's or my terrible egos. She's willing to learn.
Humility seems to be in your favor though....Just by saying you need better confidence in your skill opens many more doors rather than never opening them because "ain't shit in there that can help me"
