Hello Sketchcrawlers, my name is Helen.
I only found this today and I knew that this is something that I MUST participate in at least once before I graduate. I've been doodling since kindergarten and progressed since then from stick figures to ... figures with a little bit more flesh. :mrgreen:
I know that I'll definitely learn a lot from this community and hopefully be able to explore different styles and mediums because for the past (around) 10 years or so, I've been using ballpoint pen and binderpaper, drawing little characters that are very typical for kids my age.
I know I'll definitely join the Sketchcrawlers in my area as soon as I find the right opportunity (after I get my driver's license, of course,) and so I hope to see you all someday! (Although, I don't think I'll be joining any Sketchcrawl groups any time soon... :< )

PS. >> I wonder if there are any people here that are around my age... :?:
I would write more about myself, but a high school sophomore like me doesn't have much to say.
Also, please excuse my grammar. For some reason, my spelling and grammar have been really off lately.

Greetings Helen,

Thank you for your introduction, the great thing of SketchCrawl is that you can participate even if you sketch around your neighborhood and/or inside your house. While it is nice top participate in large groups the main purpose is to spend the day or some length of time sketching that which is around you.
Maybe you can even get together with other friends from your High School and sketch around there or even get your Art Teacher involved.
