Thank you for your comment! I do feel this practice is the kind that might be accessible to everyone - regardless of our capacity, we can doodle a line or a few of them, and get curious about it. It might not come to be the type of result one hoped for initially, yet still allow us to get started on the journey. I’ve never played on teams in sports so I could not answer to that analogy :)

Regarding drawing, I find there are many resources that are helpful to get started on a journey towards that. Here are just three of books I’ve loved at some point through time for instance (these are, of course, conditioned to how I have learnt or taught myself to draw and therefore not representative of all styles of drawings one might want to explore). They have very different approaches from one another, so one might find one that resonates more with them maybe.

- Drawing With the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards. A classic read in learning drawing skills, that assumes no pre-existing drawing abilities and balances theory and practical exercices for one to start on with that journey. There are many people who can tell how they taught themselves to draw from this book.

- What To Draw and How to Draw I by George Edwin Lutz (while researching to answer your comment, I even discovered it was available online for free). It’s an old one but so very actionable when you start, giving tips on structures for stylised common characters, animals and motives [https://archive.org/details/whattodrawhowtod00lutz/page/16/mode/2up](https://archive.org/details/whattodrawhowtod00lutz/page/16/mode/2up)

- The Animator Survival Kit by Richard Williams. This one is more specific to people who are interested in animation - but provides good basis for learning anyways because how you draw a character for animation is helpful to understand how one might want to construct a character that has movement, life and expressiveness for a still drawing as well.
