DrawSpace

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. From hatching to caricatures, there is something to help an artist of any level, and a thriving forum section lets you find feedback or commiseration. The lessons are free, though registration is required. (VF)
