    • @dougjacksonart

      Excellent stuff. The term artist is hilariously broad anyway. I usual say ' I like to draw and paint' and leave it at that. Confidence comes with a comfortable workflow and learning not to focus on end results. Freedom to play and experience mistakes! ONWARDS!

    Might be time for a flat cap - celebrate your roots. As for script, I too spent a lot of time at a drawing board, and if you want slavish accuracy and standards compliant lettering those are my sole areas of artistic competence, or were. However, I went to a bit of trouble to develop a more informal style of printing, and found that a good way to practise was doing the crossword every day. When every letter has its own little box you can concentrate on the forms in isolation, and there's no blank page situation to mess with your head.
