Thinking about getting back in to art

Dulleyes

i had always be into drawing when i was young but i felt i couldnt move on from sketching with lead pencils to paint because i am colourblind and i have been nervous of using colours but i have always wanted to paint but i think the reason i have been put off was when i was young i coloured in a map of the world purple and brown and that was in school so it didnt go unoticed. has any else had a loss of interest in a hobbie that they really liked.

  • Well, yeah, PGK, I've been quite interested in electronics in the past but the problem I found was my lack of mathematical knowledge. If you want to study electronics you must be able to understand stuff like fractions, trigonometry, equations, etc. and without these it can seem very confusing.

    Ok, some people just like to 'tinker' about making electronic devices with a minimum of theorectical knowledge because, I presume, they are 'hands on' and like practical work. But, I like to understand what is going on in electronic circuits at the theoretical level and for this maths is a must.

    Just because you are colour blind, PGK, doesn't mean you don't have artistic talent. I know nothing about art but I do know there have been many interesting black and white drawings and etchings that have been exhibited at art galleries because of their high degree of skill, so please persue art because we have to develop what we're good at and one day, who knows, you might become famous!
