I also draw illustrations (digi-e) to insert in my columns, but it is always very hard for me.
As I am not a talented artist, I have used other works as a reference.
Therefore, I have a hard time changing the gender and physique of a person, and even if I want to change the camera view (point of view), I can't handle it at all.
I truly envy those who have the talent to paint.

I was talking to my second daughter about this, however she said to me smoothly,
"Anyone comes to draw if they study drawing properly for a month"
When I heard that, I was about to say
"That's the opinion of the gifted !"
However I noticed that it was me to say
"Anyone comes to program if they study programming properly for a month.
And I seriously believe that.
In fact, most people who say they can't program have never written a line of code in their lives.
Therefore, I believe that anyone can program.

I, on the other hand, a person who has demonstrated the "counterexample" of
"If you stay in the U.S. for a year, you'll be able to speak English easily"
Furthermore, I was the one who made the story into a series of articles for two years.

Anyway, for my second daughter's saying,
"Anyone comes to draw if they study drawing properly for a month"
I was ready to give it some serious consideration.
