Hand lettering

I started drawing when I was in elementary school,maybe even before that.I used to copy the Strawberry shortcake characters in my pajamas.From then on I got a steady supply of pencil colors,crayons,water colors and colored pens from my father who's working abroad that time.I just learned on my own.I never had art classes,I don't think I'm that talented.The only formal training I had with design was during the drafting classes in college.

I took up drawing again because I saw my old paint brush set,old cards I made and my sketch book- while cleaning mom's house.
It is therapeutic for me.It really helps me take my mind off my daily routines.It is also taking what I have learned from my reading,to another level.Sometimes,I can come up with designs I can associate with the verse quickly,sometimes,it takes me days to develop one.
