I am a beginner and will always be one. Now at the age of 41 I begin to draw, for the first time after school years. I never had any lessons or tried to paint. I was busy with studying engineering, working as a manager and being a mother. However the wish to draw never disappeared. The small sketches I was drawing secretly while listening to lessons at that time came back recently in form of small secret sketches during business meetings, but I didn't know where to start. Then one day I stopped by www. illustrationfriday.com and the sketch above came alive. I don't know what he is looking for under his mother's bed, but for sure something which is missing.
I hope to receive some feedback for my amateur sketches and hope to learn to develop them to real paintings.

Welcome!!!
I admire your courage to start drawing at 41. I wish others had your courage. Keep it up.
Well done. A simple, well composed drawing with clarity and good perspective.
Oh, I like this quite a bit. I love how that the kid is barefoot, it makes me think of my childhood and running around all summer without shoes on.
Good work!

That's very well-done for someone who's as out-of-practice as you say. A sweet expression on that face, too. I love doodling in meetings, I get some of my best drawing ideas in them. Keep it up!
