Hello All. Just wanted to say hi and that I really enjoy this group. I am a leg amputee who rekindled my love of drawing as kind of therapy to combat mental stress of mobility issues. I have always drawn but not consistently due to busy life. Then suddenly had too much time, so got really involved in art. It consumes you and great distraction from mobility frustrations when your in the zone. Unfortunately I may lose another leg this year but I am positive and will continue my artistic journey. I love graphite and charcoal and have recently started to work in color, but monotone work is my favourite. Feel free to comment, critique on anything I post. Will try to post some work soon. All the best. Love the work I've seen so far. TimD

Welcome, Tim!

Get to work and start uploading - we're dying to see what you're up to

You're right that drawing, when in the zone, is a great distraction. It can help with all manner of problems. There are two things that pull me into the zone - drawing and coding (JavaScript mainly). The only difference is that I can code while I have a migraine but I can't draw with one, just in between attacks - but it's wonderful therapy

So, keep drawing. Show us the results. And I sincerely hope life is kinder to you.

really nice
