Never knew I could draw this well

How I started drawing ...

It all began like this, I logged onto discord a saw the daily nominated post on #teamsouthafrica group, and clicked on the link, took me to steemit site, checked out the post and saw a really really amazing drawing.

I thought to myself how hard it can really be to sketch a good drawing ... so I started, slowly and carefully, read some tips on how to draw....

Sharpened my pencil
Got a good piece of paper to draw on
Washed my hands
Got my eraser
Thought of what I wanted to draw

And then began drawing...

Started sketching the basic form of the object
Used circles, squares, triangles and rectangles to represent larger parts of the object.

Took me a couple of tries until I was happy with my rough sketch
Erased a couple of lines and circle.

Started going over my drawing with darker pencil

Was happy with the rough sketch, and went over the lines, circle and triangles.

And started finishing it.
Made the finishing touches.

I was very happy with my end result.... I really surprised myself

Bottom line, not everyone can draw, but everyone can enjoy it.

Have a good day.
