1. Was it fun?

It wasn’t that fun because this was an assignment. I do like to draw, but only when I’m in the mood to do so and have something specific I want to convey or create. With regards to trying again, I might do so another time when I’m feeling more inspired.

2. Do you think if you practiced for 100 hours, or 1000, that you would get a lot better?

Absolutely! With practice comes development of technique and a better feel for drawing. The mind to muscle connection is an advantageous tool.

3. What is your major? Can you think of anyways that simple sketching of some kind could be useful in your major?

My major is in accounting. Sketching might be useful assuming you’re an auditor working with a lot of clients in manufacturing. It helps a lot to understand how their machinery works. Other than that I can’t think of how drawing would help an accountant.

4. Is Drawing a Language? Can drawings say things that are hard to say with words?

Language is something we use to communicate with other people. While it is mainly spoken and written, it can also be signed through our hands through the use of sign language. I don’t think drawing is a language, but it can be used as a means to convey a certain language/message that we are trying to get across, that isn’t really well explained through words.
