I've never actually tried to paint, maybe I just assume I can't, cuz I can't draw at all. I HAVE tried to sketch these things. I have no idea how to show perspective. I need to hire one of you painters to paint from my descriptions. I would imagine one would need to know how to draw before one could attempt to paint something. Any good videos or books you painters can recommend that might get me going in the right direction? T says I don't need to be able to draw or paint them because I can write them so well in my poetry, but I still want to be able to. Stubborn me.

All you have to do is try. I never had any lessons or anything, I just tried... Besides, I wish I wasnt such a perfectionist, I mean some famous artist paint all sorts of skewed images. You should just try...start with acrylics...they are easier... I also enjoy chalk pastels
