a first

Not so much a resolution, but the realization that it's time for me to learn new things. Step out of the comfort zone and tackle old fears, ineptitudes, find new territory.
I am finally going to learn how to draw.
I still draw like a 2nd grader. Paint, that's a little different, I can do abstract at least, let the brush take over, and be happy with the colors. Drawing something that I see and have it be a representation of what I think I see...forget it.
There is a course called "Drawing for the Absolutely Terrified" at the local arts center. And while I am not terrified (I mean, who would be terrified of a piece of paper and a pencil??), I am a beginner. I just signed up for it, and it starts next Tuesday.
