Episode 27 - Is Drawing a Natural Talent?

How To Draw Comics

Is drawing a natural talent that some people are just born with? If so, where does that leave the rest of us - are we doomed to always be two steps behind the elites with little chance of ever reaching their divine level of god-given skill? This is both a question and a statement we hear all too often in the face of a masterfully executed piece of comic book art. When we see someone who can draw well, especially someone young, it's an almost automatic response to exclaim how brilliantly talented they are. But is there really any magic behind it? Or, as with any skillset, does becoming a great comic book artist come down to hard work and dedication? In this weeks Podcast Episode Clayton Barton and Co-Host Ric Bulow look at both sides of the equation, as well as the pros and cons of each. Hope you enjoy the episode, and thanks for listening! -Clayton For more comic art tutorials, videos, podcast episodes and courses visit www.howtodrawcomics.net
