Going for Gold
Hi there,
I'm new to the forum and have just been enjoying some of the threads and the great art work on display. I'm eager to learn how I can improve my drawing. I've been practicing regularly for the last two and a half years and I'm getting to a point where sketching is now becoming my primary interest in birding, but I love it, especially when I'm in the 'zone'. Hope you know what I'm talking about, I think Lars does! I'd love to get into illustration - I do a bit for my local bird report but I'm having to contend with a properly trained artist! - and love the line drawings in the old BB's. I work solely with a pencil and need to open up my mind to other media, but I'm finding this pretty daunting.
First of all could someone please tell me how to send scanned sketches? Is it as simple as just attcahing using the paperclip icon?
While I'm here I'd like to say hi to Tim Wooton. Remember me? Myself, Mark langstone and you twitched, but dipped, a Pec Sand at Anglers in Sept 88A I was cutting my teeth at Wsbro CP at the time. How the memory works!
Cheers
Russ
