Learning to draw (part 2)

I am still messing about with paints, pencils, crayons & charcoal. I don't think I'll ever be good at this stuff. Not like my mate Irene here. Now she is a natural!
She does occasionally have problems with faces though, getting everything in perspective can be tricky. I was able to help her out with this by explaining my "hands on" approach to portraiture. This method involves painting your lips, nose and eyes and then pressing your face firmly against the canvas. She tried it out and it worked :-)
