So, I'm drawing a picture of Azathoth...
I say to my husband, "You were supposed to keep me controlled and practical." (He snorts!) "Does illustrating Lovecraftian cosmic horror look controlled and practical?"
He looks at the page and nods. "It takes patience and skill to draw those lines."
He encourages my weirdness every chance he gets. 😍
@XaoslordErie My approach to drawing is a lot like my approach to music. I learn enough of how other people do it that it won't be a complete mess when I do it my own way.
As a musician, I agree; for me, though, it was important to know the reason(s) for the rules so I could set about breaking some of them.

And he's right, too - it takes skill and a great deal of patience to do that sort of work. It's certainly not something I could ever do.
