Photos vs art

Hi all, just my 2 cents. I'm one of the lucky ones who had extensive life drawing experiences. I miss that time in my life, with all the hard work and the fun of being an art student. I even spent a year modeling to supplement my education.

After my recent experiences with photos, I have made a pledge to myself that I will never completely trust what I see in them again.

As a newcomer to this forum (and returnee to art), I got the impression at first that photography was going to be a major part of my retraining. A necessary evil. I'm relieved to discover, that for myself it will only be a minor tool.
