Re: Stepping Away from the Computer

Stepping away from the computer, something that I happen to have not been doing enough of lately. 

My love for art began with the basics, paper and pencils, in grade school and I find myself lately going to the computer before anything else. Don't get me wrong I'll sketch at the drop of a hat if theres a piece of paper in front of me, but I find myself not going to the paper and pencil at the beginning of a design project. 

With todays technology so rapidly growing and every answer easily at our fingertips it is sometimes very hard to step away. I am guiltily of it, as soon as I hear something I have a question about I say: "I'm gonna ask Google." (Rebecca can testify to me saying that almost every class) :- ) Although technology is wonderful I don't ever feel that the paper and pencil will be a mystery. Stepping away from the computer is and always will be useful. 

Rebecca, Thanks for bringing up this topic. You just encouraged me to start sketching a little bit more. :-)
