Mixing It Up In Your Sketchbook

Dana Terrace is a student in my Tuesday Foundation Drawing Class for Animation Majors. I decided to shoot a new Drawing Tip of the Week showcasing Dana's talent. I'm very privileged to be able to look into each students sketchbook every week to check on their homework. There is so much talent that I decided to share the talent with you. Each week I will do my best to showcase a new students sketchbook.

@jdkjkjdkjdks I disagree. One can practice til times get better and still not have the eye that can come to another naturally.

@jdkjkjdkjdks You're so wrong, lol. Practice is vital, but without initial talent you're nothing.

@midairman 'how do you know if you have talent', my mistake...

[midairman]

@SmokiSounds So when do you know when you do have talent? I've been brooding on this for ages... People tell me I do have talent but I think my drawings are in no way 'natural-looking'...

i think it's cute how shy dana is. :)

@kendahke Yet the talent isn't discovered without practice right?

[Luigia525]

@msedwardelric12 This i can agree with.

[kendahke]

the natural ability sets your starting point further ahead. Anyways, I'm done with this conversation now.

@kendahke That's not really natural talent though. A natural talent is something you're born able to do, like singing. Natural passion? Yes. A natural desire to express yourself is not the same as naturally being able to be good at something. As much as you want to, you still have to practice to get better. The passion is just a kick-start.

@Luigia525 I think it is a talent. A talent you can obtain through practise and hardwork, but to not call it a talent kind of belittles that hardwork and practise. Following your line of thought nothing is a talent because everything requires hard work to achieve a level better than your starting point. Obviously some people's starting points will be at a higher level than others...though I suppose if everything's a talent, the word becomes meaningless?
