The Insightful Path

Because I am working hard at improving my drawing skills (if you could actually call it that.. hehe..) , I have created another Paint drawing of my outfit for today. Not sure if it has improved since yesterday but here are a few observations:            - It is harder to use the mouse to draw that it is to use the pencil or the pen (I have nothing but respect and awe to the graphic artists for being so good with their craft while using only the mouse!)            - It is better to work on your project when it is zoomed in because you can see the lines better, but to appreciate it, you need to zoom out for the bird's eye view                  - Paint is not the best application to use for nice drawings because of its limited functions but it is one of the best tools to get elementary drawing lessons like what I am getting right now... ;-)       ...

Since yesterday, while I obsessed about what to wear for this Saturdays debutante party with the goddess theme that we were invited to; and after googling images of “goddess costumes/dresses, etc”; I’ve started sketching what I think I might/should wear. What was supposed to be just a sketch of what I would wear quickly became more sketches of other dresses and designs. I took pictures of those so I can upload them here later.   (They don’t really offer me bragging rights, but certainly a start at gaining or improving my drawing skills.. hehe) Honestly, if I had some talent in drawing, it would definitely be limited to stick figures, suns, moons, stars, flowers, spider webs, trees, apples, nipa huts and other very simple things. (Ofcouse the basic shapes are a given) I envy those who can draw (and those who can dance) and even envisioned myself making my own comics! (Greatly inspired by the blog posts on LET ME BE FRANK, which I really enjoy reading) I can dream of course...
