Were you somebody who always drew, or was there a point in your life where drawing really became important to you?

Yeah.

I w- I drew as a kid.

I did a lot of little comic book hero drawings as a kid, and I did some drawing in my journals when I was a little bit older.

But as like a serious practice, I didn't start really until 2021 in the, during the pandemic.

I took a, a course online through my local library.

It was a pencil drawing 101.

Did you always work that way or did you have to learn to loosen up or did it come naturally?
