Being absolutely useless at painting I decided to join an online course. You can decide yourself whether they are getting any better or not!!
Anyway, I have found painting to be something relaxing to do and it does get me away from the computer for a while....
I have to give thanks to Andy Walker and his learntodo.co.uk courses. I have taken on both the acrylic painting and the drawing. I have all his instructions; downloads and video clips but have not yet had chance to finish the course. I do feel that I have improved a lot (you should have seen what I drew/painted like before).
Time is the only factor that stops me from doing more. I'm up at 5.30 every morning to go to work and don't get back home until anything from 6.30 onwards in the evening (depending on traffic). Therefore by the time the weekend comes everything is jammed into two days. Boring things like housework/washing/ironing and more interesting things like children/grandchildren. Mind you having 4 children and 8 grandchildren does while away the free time....
