      @Inge-Permentier Thanks for the encouraging words. I also want to see what I can do with proper instruction! I'm aiming to take it pretty slow, but I'll post my progress.

            @Basil-Godevenos welcome fellow Canadian. I’m 55 and at the beginning as well. So you’ve got plenty of time! 😃

                    @MissMushy Thanks! I have an uncle who picked up painting in his mid-40s and he's very good. So that gives me hope!

                      @Heather-Boyd Oooh so close by! I'm actually in Markham, but nobody outside the GTA knows where that is :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

                          @Fossi-Images Just took a look at your IG. That is impressive work! My best friend is a graphic artist who has recently gotten into block printing. He lives in California, so I've never seen him work. Watching your process videos has given me some insight!

                            Wow! I just got into this forum and already loving the energy here!

                            Just like you @Basil-Godevenos : I'm 38 and just got back to drawing after putting it aside in my teenage years.

                            I relate a lot to what you're saying, and all the other comments are giving me more reasons to keep practicing!

                                      @Basil-Godevenos I hope you reach your goal, it does sound really challenging with all those responsibilities but I’m learning now that with my own increasing responsibilities being a young guy I have to start managing my time wisely and prioritizing things

                                        @Josh-Schouwstra-0 Hi Josh! Me too! I'm getting a clearer picture of where I want to end up and what kinds of things I want to be doing by the end of that time. It's exciting!

                                          @cortney-mahone It's good you're realizing that now. Deciding what your priorities are is vital to a healthy life.
