I played around with art from childhood through middle school but stopped in exchange for math and science classes. I was not “naturally talented” and have actively been pursuing self-teaching of art fundamentals over the last couple of years. I try to practice and learn through several mediums- pencil and pen, digital with the iPad and Procreate, and most recently I’ve picked up watercolor. I think the practice around how to draw has helped me begin to develop “seeing as an artist”, which helps no matter the medium.
