I know art-making makes me happy (as I type that, I remember the time I did a presentation about ‘making art’ and three of my friends came up to me at the end and told me that everytime I said that it sounded like ‘making out’ 😂😅🤣 – anyhoo, both are good).

All you need is something to draw with, and something to draw on.

I recommend starting with regular things, like sketching your keyring on your shopping list, or your earring on an opened envelope.

If you’d like more guidance check out my website and try a ‘Blue Wren’ drawing class, perhaps ‘Shiny Happy Sketching – in Quarantine’, and if you’re still loving it, ‘Shiny Happy Drawing’ is a workshop I’m still proud of after 3 years. It’ll REALLY get you drawing – and happy!

So I’d add just one word to Bob’s quote – I’d say we’re a SHINY happy bunch!
