Hello! This forum reminded me of conceptart.org (RIP) and I decided to join.
I was in conceptart.org for a while, had a sketchbook going, but suffering untreated Bipolar I self-destructed quickly. I'm finally on meds that work so that is the past and there is still a future ahead even if I'm old now.
I've been wanting to get back into art. I have the itch back. I really want to learn how to draw as I'm at a stubborn amateurish level and made little progress in 30 years (I think I regressed really). I sometimes use AI to visualize my characters (I hope this is not a bannable offense!) but this just encouraged me to learn how to draw. I want to do it myself, from my mind.
Is it OK if I start a sketchbook straight away? Would appreciate the encouragement. I have one little drawing to show.
Thank you for having me here!
