On practicing drawing

My historic architectural drawing

I’m happy to be able to get back on drawing after not having it for a while.

It takes a bit of practice to be good at the details of drawing. It can be a bit embarrassing knowing that a lot of the details won’t come out right the first time. I know that once I start drawing, I get immersed in the process and want to continue.

About Pressure

My dad sent me this. Quite well written.

Translation:

The egg.

If you hit the egg from the outside, it is food. If you break the egg from the inside, it is life. The egg is also like a person’s life; if you break the egg from the outside, it is pressure. If you break the egg from the inside, it is growth. If you wait for others to break it open, you’re setting yourself up to become other people’s food. If you let yourself break the egg from the inside, then you’ll find yourself growing to be who you truly are.
