I’ve been thinking about this, even if I haven’t actually been doing anything about it.
That probably doesn’t count, does it?
The problem I have – and it’s the same with any creative undertaking, whether drawing, or photography, or writing – is that I need to have some sort of goal in mind. Free-writing has never worked for me, and neither has just picking up a pencil and paper and sketching what’s in front of me. I need a project, and I just haven’t been able to come up with one.
But the last few days, I’ve been playing with an idea that I think could be a fun project. It’s a bit ambitious for someone who hasn’t really drawn anything in years, but even if nothing comes of it, I have a reason to pick up a pencil again.
That’s all I need.
