I just thought I would drop by and Say "Hello" who knows maybe this could even be like fun as well as a learning expierience. Being a Newbie I hope all of you guys and gals can be patient as I have alot to learn.

welcome john, there are alot of us newbies here. trust me from what i've seen, so far, we couldn't be in better company.

Well thanks Gregg, I am sure to enjoy everyone and thier enthusiasm for drawling. Just one question I know this will sound quite crazy but at what point here do you start drawling? I know I know laugh as you will I just can't wait to start using my new supplies..... LOL

Yesterday!
Jump in and join us, there are lessons to do and weekly challenges to join in on.
Everybody is welcome at whatever stage they are at.

hello Im a newbie here also, still learning to navigate the site. I was wondering where to find the weekly challenges?Oh I did post some drawings, kinda rough around the edges . lol
sure great to find you wonderful people interested in art!

Hello and welcome! The site can be a bit confusing at first, but you'll get used to it quickly. There's always a main list along the top of the page, just under the Drawspace logo.

My Drawspace: Clicking this will bring you to your private area where you can create & edit your gallery pictures or mess with your profile info.

Drawing Lessons: Here is a ton of free lessons, all very entertaining and effective. It's free to view these lessons online, but if you wish to download it to your computer or print it out then you'll have to upgrade your account (pay).

Gallery: Here you can choose to view the Members Gallery, an inspirational gallery where people donate photos for public use, or Brenda Hoddinott's Gallery where she shows off her superior artistic talent.

Forums: From here you can choose from 4 different forums. The Welcome forum is where we are now, where new members introduce themselves. The Generel Forum is full of weekly challenges, art card trades, WIPs, and threads where you can get feedback & advice on drawings. Those two are the most used forums. The others are for when you have an idea about improving the site or having serious technical issues.

So there ya go. Hope that helped some small amount. Enjoy! -Mindy
