"Feel the pen against the paper" - Meagan.
I used to draw. I have hundreds of sketch pads around the house, all unfinished. And why, I can't answer that, because I do not know. Actually I do know. I get bored. I can't keep one single hobby for a long period of time.
Painting - takes too many materials.
Making bracelets - makes me nausea if I stare at the strings for too long.
Photography - too many posers, all after the same "title"
Keeping a diary - makes my hand cramp because of everything I have to say.
But sketching, that's different. I love distortion. The ability to take an adequate scene and turn it into your own. I have four pieces done so far, in different notebooks, all stored in my locker.
I want to sophisticate my ability.
I want a sketch pad. Drawing isn't a hobby, it's a way of expressing (as cliche as that may sound). It's me, being able to let my feelings out in shapes and shades that can only be decoded by me. With a pencil in my hand and paper underneath me, I'm allowed to express myself, vent about everything, without being judged or having find an ear to listen to me.
Everyone should draw. Because everyone's drawings tell a different story.
