Aw, love it! Hey, you should see what my stuff looked when I first started trying to draw. It's not ALL about persistence, talent sure helps, but you gain a LOT by just doing, over and over. But I'll say what I always do: making something takes time and effort, and if anyone feels strongly enough about my stuff that it makes them want to make something, I'm honored. Now in terms of development, only you can say whether you want to go after drawing specifically; I recently turned down a nice guitar because I just didn't have the time to get into music. But if you do want to, I'd definitely encourage it. Speaking as someone who's definitely NOT talented, it's a lot of work, it's a struggle, but man is it satisfying when a little something comes together and you go "wow, I drew that?"

May I ask what training? Something to help with the condition?

I'm in school for digital forensics, and I learned that while there are sometimes technicians who will collect digital media for the examiner, there will also be times where I am required to actually come out and collect the items from a scene. From what I'm learning so far, a lot of agencies and departments require a sketch to be made for each evidence item, alongside photographs, videos, and written documentation. Of course, I haven't even interned, yet, so all my understanding is strictly academic and not necessarily based on how it's actually done.

Oh yeah, practice definitely makes a difference, as I could sketch some decently complex characters back when I did it every week; still not top notch, but I could reasonably sketch characters like Aang, Pain (Deva Path), Cosmo, so on. I definitely did feel proud when I made anything recognizable, and not fevered drawings.

Oooh, so it's part of the forensics stuff, that makes sense. Well excellent, and again, thanks for the piece! Always glad to have new art.
