I want to give a card to one of my teachers and wanted to decorate it personally, I have never been into painting, but I don’t want to get anyone else to paint for me. Wish me Luck

Cool. I always liked colored pencils, but I can never get them to do what I wanted.

Not that I practiced enough in the first place of course.

I tend toward simple lines and drawing comics more, I love black and white ink line drawings

    I also feel like they might not be great if you wanna make something more than simple drawings/colorings

    Colored pencils?

    Yeah, I don't think I ever got passed crude brontosauruses and t-Rexes with those.

    But boy, was there an excess of dinosaur coloring going on, haha.

    Oh and one detailed gryphon in 9th grade.

    Actually, I remember that this one gryphon turned out so well that I stopped used coloring pencils afterwards haha.

    Like I thought to myself " All right, I've reached the peak of my craft. Time to move on."
