Heya, thanks again for the fav, the more so if I can be any inspiration to you. You don't need to draw *well* you know, that was never the point. Draw because you wish to, and what skill is in your blood will come of its own accord. The time thing is an illusion, really. Carry a notepad, doodle in margins, on the bus or during commercials or whatever. I used to draw on paper towels during dry spots at work.

Here are two of my best friends whose work I love in spite of their lack of 'skills':

'A Typical Date' by ~Vangelus

'Make Your Choice' and 'Identity Crisis' by *Voice-of-Levity

And this is how much an artist can improve in a year or so:

Hope to see you sometime.
-Peace, Pteryxx
