I love art. Drawing particularly. It helps me relax but also imagine a different life.
History has shown drawing has been a founding means of expressing oneself .
How awesome. Do you draw? 
I wish! Drawing is one of the easiest ways to show people something visually.
Grab a pencil. Remember art is in the eye of the beholder. 
That is true! Since you can use so many different things to draw with, it is the most used artistic activity!
I prefer charcoal and thick paper. It add's an element of shading that can not be matched. 
Have you used any other forms to draw on like cardboard, plastic, canvas or leather?
I do some leather drawing and then I etch into the leather. Most horse saddles or stuff for the Renn fair 
That is fun, do you sketch your design first by quickly drawing it?
