You need to watch it all the way to the end and feel your heart cry.

Need a little mo
Be Like Connie.
I really wanted to share the inspiring story of Connie. A 70-ish year old lady who decided to teach herself to draw last year.
Many of you know I'm an art class teacher for a community center as my "day" job, and this lady, Connie, started coming to some of the classes. She carries a big 16x20 portfolio with more work in it than my own portfolio has.
What super impresses me about Connie is two fold: She didn't let her age or anything else stop her from learning something she wanted to do. And! She didn't dump a bunch of money or time into buying instructional books, videos, or other teaching resources.
Her routine of learning how to draw
More simple wisdom.
From: Top 25 Things I've Learned About Hand Lettering
Full of awesome messages.
I think this Inktober is going to be all about hand lettering for me.
Oh, and the Background book? Yes, it's still progressing. Instead of repeating what my previous tutorials about 1 point, 2 point, and 3 point shared about grid building and all that, I've decided to do more of what I did with the Fullmetal Alchemist piece and problem solve as I draw an actual illustration. I feel like there's more applicable information that way, and it helps to see a similar process repeated for drawing chairs, tables, bookcases, etc.
Thank you for your continued patience!
