Patience, practice and have fun with it dude. A little over a year ago I picked up a sketchpad and pencil and just started doodling my dog lying around the house. I’ll throw on my headphones and listen to music while I let my pencil, pen or paint brush lead me see where we ended up. It’s a great escape and absolutely low stakes. What ever comes out isn’t going to be the Mona Lisa, and who cares? You have made something and that is something to be proud of

I really have to give huge props to Bob. I watch his shows after my bartending job on Wednesday nights and it has definitely given me great techniques for my sketching and water color painting.

It’s so funny- that was the first one I did and I did not set out to do a conifer. I just let my pen lead me and that’s where we ended up

Wow thank you. It’s easier than it seems, watch the video I posted in another comment. I was surprised by how well they come out by just layering little squiggles in the shape of a tree.

Don’t call brain names.

I am really fond of your work. The color with this one is excellent!
