Did an outdoor drawing class once. It was fun working with perspective. Since it is just there in life and photography. We went to see a Thiebaud. There was a work in pencil of left hands. One of his practice pieces.
I told the teacher, what? He had to practice too! He laughed.
So I tried drawing my left hand. Fun stuff.
Keep it up. You never know where it will go.
