Hi all, does anyone who has been in the trade where you been useing technical drawing like an architect or simular ocupation find that it help!s you progress in painting or do you find it hard to loosen up, i was talking to a guy who helped in the local frame shop and he said he was in that kind of trade and found it difficult trying to loosen up now he has taken up painting, i think he found it as a mental block because of his previous trade? He found it hard to try and cross that line as he had been in that trade for so long it was becoming very frustrating. All the best to everone, Harry.
