Loved these reflections. I stopped art in perhaps year 9, I was so incredibly slow with my perfectionist ways! Subject choices became restrictive and I threw it in, and appreciate it from the other side now.
I'm feeling drawn to you, I understand that feeling of box, chair lie drawing although as least I took separate courses for each. OK I didn't do a course on drawing boxes but I did do a basic drawing course first, trouble was I was 68 not 54. Maybe it doesn't matter when you take up a too hard challenge, at least you do it.
Tracy, this story brings back so many memories of my first year of drawing at ACSA. I was terrified and terrible at it.
Now? Love it. Cheers Jennyxx
I am looking forward to being not terrible.
It will happen.

Between art and PE, those early high school years were a slog!

I'm drawn to you too! I've seen your work, you are way better at drawing boxes than I am, so it's good to know you found it a too hard challenge too
Thanks Meg!
