Do you class yourself as bad at art? Stick figures are out of your league? Can’t even draw a straight line? Then I want you! Drawing is fun because it is a form of self-expression.
You can draw whatever you want, and create whatever you wish, so why shouldn’t it be fun? Explore your imagination, play with mediums, embrace mistakes. It's time to draw bad.
