Yes of course!. :)
Everyone starts off at the same level of basic scribbled stick figures when they're little!. Most people don't bother to keep with it as they grow up; but the ones that enjoy to draw and have a passion for it stick with it and get better and better!.
So by the time they're grown up and brilliant at drawing, everyone says 'oh you're so talented! You have such a gift!' when really it's a lifetime of practice practice practice!.
So of course you can learn now! you just have to be dedicated!. Don't give up if something looks bad!. Observe everything around you and practice drawing it all, over and over again!. Read books and take classes!.
Good luck :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes and no I think!. You can learn to be a better artist but a lot of it is in born talent it seems!. I know people who just have that talent and were never taught!. I for one am not great at art, I'm sure I could take lessons/classes and learn to be better but I doubt I'd be able to be great b/c that's just not a talent that I posses!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes, definitely!. Like anything, some people are naturally gifted at drawing but anyone can gain and refine the skill through practise and instruction!.

Like for me, drawing comes naturally, but I need a lot more practise than my younger brother does to be as good as he is (because he's even better naturally)!. And my younger sister had never been a visual artist until about 2 years ago when she really got into it!. She got passionate about it and started practising all the time; and she went from sad stick figures to decent drawings!.

It's all about the practise!. And a class will help you if you don't know where to start!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
