Something like learning to walk.

Creative child must first begin to crawl. Then followed the first steps and first drop – the first awkward pictures, movies that are similar to the family amateur photography, the first verse, which embarrassed even to sign a postcard … Remember: to awaken the artist within, we first need to prepare for the role of a bad artist. Allow yourself to stay a novice. By agreeing to be a bad artist, you gets a chance to be an artist in general, and eventually, perhaps very good. " And remember: You want to create, draw – then you are already an artist. Let some of you are artists so far only in the shower, but this only means one: the first step has been taken, but said the wise Chinese journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. I, as a self-taught artist, I can afford to say that learning to draw any person, sense of beauty world, capable to hold the horizon line and draw a pencil tree or stozhok. If your goal in the future – enroll in a particular school, student requiring academic knowledge and skills, then Of course, we need an art school or studio. But a minimal artistic skills, without artistic education, as such, can be their own.
