Drawing Is Good
Drawing is a powerful tool of communication. It helps build self-understanding and can boost mental health.
But our current focus on productivity, outcomes and “talent” has us thinking about it the wrong way. Too many believe the myth of “I can’t draw”, when in fact it’s a skill built through practice.
Dedicated practice is hard, however, if you’re constantly asking yourself: “What’s the point of drawing?”
We need to reframe our concept of what it means to draw, and why we should do it – especially if we think we can’t.
