Hello from a nervous newb :)

Hi Maria! I find it so enjoyable to learn and do my own artwork, because I don't put any pressure on myself to hurry or do anything that I don't want to do, unlike most of our 8-5 jobs. I only found this site a few months ago myself and I'm learning so much! I hope you find that to be the case for you too!

@Maria-Carmina Hi Maria! Welcome to a fellow serial dabbler. I've been all over the map as far as hobbies go, so I understand where you're coming from. Sounds like you're committed to working at your art every day - which is definitely the first step towards getting good at something! Can't wait to see what you can achieve!

Welcome! I felt the same when i first started here. I have learned a lot and found out a lot about myself as well. If you are serious about doing art this is the place to be! If you do it as a hobby this is also the place to be

Hi Maria! I am a newbie here as well. This is actually my first post.
It’s nice to meet you! I’m looking forward to getting more involved in the forums and making the best use of the classes that I can. I decided to start with How to Draw Everything and I’m only halfway through. I will probably be slower to progress than I would like since I will be trying to work around a full time job and young kids, but I love the flexibility of these courses so I will be able to fit them in whenever I can!Best of luck to you in your studies!

Welcome. This forum is a very encouraging and friendly place. I have seen fellow artists at all levels and all sorts of styles are able to help each other in many different ways in this forum. I learned so much from this forum, about making art, about the illustration business, and also how to think and talk about art.

Welcome!

Welcome
This is an awesome forum to share ideas and get advice and no hate or bulls@#t. I love it!Biggest thing I learned in my own journey is to only compare yourself to one person, your past self. Even if you left art and making things for a while the skills you had don't leave they just need a kickstart and the curriculum is great for that and the advice and support on this forum is awesome.
