I always wanted to be able to draw and I envied those people who were able to capture anything with seemingly effortless strokes of their pencil. Back in school I wasn't even that bad in "art class" but lets face it, it's not like drawing a bit of watercolor is much of a challenge.
Anyways, since I have bit of free time on my hand these days I finally decided to give it a shot and try whether or not I might be able to teach myself a bit of drawing abilities. I haven't touched a pencil in ages, so obviously I was more than a bit pessimistic about this.
With this in mind I tried to do a quick (I have no patience to speak of) portrait of todays front page SG Milloux and I have to admit that I'm rather satisfied with the result. Obviously the resemblence isn't that great and there are many things to fix, but I don't think I'm hopeless and since I've always been my worst critic it's a huge step for me to admit this to myself.

Obviously this'll never be my career but I think it might become a nice little hobby.
Edit: Is there any way to post a thumbnail preview of big pics?
