Been awhile

I haven't posted anything new in weeks. I haven't been drawing as often as I should be (big surprise there). I've been incredibly lazy and distracted. I don't know how I expect to improve at this rate. Don't get me wrong though, I've been doing sketches here and there, but I never manage to finish them or spend a long time on them. I recently got the book "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" by Betty Edwards and it's very interesting to say the least. It's all about shutting out the left side of the brain, the verbal side, and letting the right side take over, the nonverbal side. By doing this, anyone could learn to draw supposedly. While I think I am a better artist than the average person, I know I am nowhere near the skill level of a professional. I'm hoping this book can somehow "unlock" my inner artist and I can move past whatever is preventing me from getting any better. I'm about fifty or sixty pages in and so far I haven't felt "enlightened" in any way, so we shall see how I feel by the end of the book. I will make sure to put up some of my recent drawings when I get around to scanning them. If only I didn't have to work today *sigh*.
