Drawing

 
Oh, I wish I could draw. I’d give my right arm to be able to draw. It must be very relaxing.                                   Alan Ayckbourn   
 
 
Whether it is filling a sketch-book with scenes from your travels or idling away the hours of a boring meeting drawing cartoons of your colleagues, the ability to draw (left handed if you are a disciple of Ayckbourn!) is indeed a priceless gift.      But like so many other things in life, a few basic skills and a lot of practice can achieve  wonders.
