But it's something that can bring immense satisfaction and I would encourage anyone to have a go. It's not so much a question of learning to draw - more of going back to basics, to the time before we started to believe we couldn't draw :D<br />Judy Adamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986456665704994228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813512259260074342.post-8733468956523276672013-12-10T03:02:37.408-08:002013-12-10T03:02:37.408-08:00Great post as usual.

I must admit I often try to copy other images but they always turn out totally different than the one I tried to copy as my own style seams to take over once I get started. Maria I can just about draw a stick man but can generate all sorts of graphics digitally so don't worry if you can't draw.Flisshttp://www.zazzle.com/flissitations*/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813512259260074342.post-66529973872062302552013-10-19T08:09:08.248-07:002013-10-19T08:09:08.248-07:00Thank you - glad you found it helpful.

The newspaper idea originated from an art class I attended a long time ago and it must have hung around in the back of my mind, ready to help when I was needed it :)<br />Judy Adamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986456665704994228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813512259260074342.post-65619514167956382902013-10-19T07:02:24.753-07:002013-10-19T07:02:24.753-07:00Another really helpful post Judy.

It's not a natural thing to me. The only thing natural is that I keep returning to it in spite of the results. More persistence really.<br />Thanks for all these tipsCarole Barketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18068078540295273489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813512259260074342.post-40604013441609691062010-08-01T10:06:31.742-07:002010-08-01T10:06:31.742-07:00Marie,

There are some tutorials in the web for the program, you can have a look at them. And then try it out and play around.Ulla Hennighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03158815662916582754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813512259260074342.post-88771506718425091562010-08-01T05:12:02.754-07:002010-08-01T05:12:02.754-07:00Hi Maria - not a silly question at all but a diffi...Hi Maria - not a silly question at all but a difficult one for me to answer because I don't use a computer program for my graphics. But I do firmly believe that anyone who can write their name can draw - with practice (and self-belief!). I will see if I can find someone who makes graphics on the computer to give you a better reply.Judy Adamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986456665704994228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813512259260074342.post-60315507285632904962010-08-01T05:00:15.590-07:002010-08-01T05:00:15.590-07:00I have a "silly" question.
