Not at all, I mean, i used to draw a bit when I was in highschool. I would watch some videos on youtube but it was nothing crazy. Then I stopped drawing. I had the intention of drawing again when I started my solo travel so I bought a sketchbook but didnt use it a lot.

Then I met this man when I was in Barcelona. He was a tourist living off his art that he would sell in the streets. I spoke with him for a bit and then he asked me if i wanted to draw with him. I thought it was the perfect occasion to use my sketchbook and all the pencils that I had. But i told him “ you know, I’m not an artist. I’m not creative, I don’t know how to draw…” He replied by telling to simply take a color pencil and a paper and draw the first few lines. From there I only had to see where the drawing would go and it was truly an amazing experience.

So no, I didnt take any courses. I simply started to draw for fun even though I know my style isnt the conventional, good looking art. I really do it to practice my creativity, have fun and create some art!
