Starting a journal is hard for me. I stared at the blank page in my book for days making excuses about why I didn't have time to draw today before pulling out a scrap piece of paper and finally drawing the yellow warbler. The idea of a journal where all my drawings, mistakes and all, can be seen scares me so I procrastinate instead. I vow to start a journal.
Spent days psyching myself up to do the drawing. Haven't put pencil to paper in years. Hoping this course motivates me. Looking forward to working with color. Have only ever used pencil. Have always been fascinated by drawings done by naturalists on expeditions of discovery centuries ago. Looking forward to learning how to work from nature.
