Drawing, like writing, is considered by many people to be one of those magical skills that some people are 'just born with'. Don't believe it! DrawSpace, created by Brenda Hoddinott, a self-educated artist (be sure to check out her About page), offers lots of bite-size lessons to help anyone become competent at drawing.

The lessons are free, though registration is required. (VF) From This is True for 25 January 2009 Suggestions for further reading:
