So, I am a writer but lately have been dying to try to draw. I know that with enough practice there is the possibility of drawing decent (or as decent as you can when you don't have any talent for it : ) Really I'd just like to be able to draw well enough to help me draw my characters / small scenes from the stories I write to help me visualize.

I have been trying to draw by hand but I downloaded gimp and have been trying to learn, but there are so many things to learn, and so many tutorials out there that I just end up being frustrated. I keep watching live streams though, so I can see how real artists do their thing.

Thanks to everyone that has been welcoming and helpful :)
