Questions & Answers
As an illustrator and a teacher, there are many questions I get asked by children. Below I have listed a few of the most common ones.
1. How long have you been drawing?
Answer: Since I was old enough to hold a pencil, so probably age 2 or so.
2. How did you learn how to draw so well?
Answer: Practice, practice and more practice! I enjoyed drawing because I had a knack for it, and I became better because I kept on working at it. A little bit of talent does make things a bit easier, but at the end of the day, I think that practice and effort are the essential ingredients to mastering a skill.
