    Ugh, I've never been able to draw anything other than a stick figure.

    I know what you mean.
    I wish I could go up on stage and I don't know, not get completely nervous perhaps. But like AuroriaLenore said, it's 5% talent, 95% practice.
    Honestly, I could never write handwriting or print when I was younger (I'm left handed which makes things difficult), but I practiced and practiced, and now I'm not so bad at it.

    I used to suck at drawing too, but now I'm doing an art GCSE a year early. Keep practicing, you'll get better :).

    Well, it's about 5 % talent, and 95 % practice, believe me.
    No one is good at something they don't practice, sometimes they just get a bit of beginners' luck.
    And drawing, it's more about the creative idea, than the technique.
    You can learn how to draw, and once you find the technique and stile you're most comfortable drawing you get better at it, but if you don't have ideas and creativity, than you have nothing.

    I know what you mean.
    I used to suck at playing bass, then one day.
    Bam. I starting getting the hang of it.
    I'm not that good of a drawer, but I'm getting better.
    Just keep telling yourself to do it.
    Do it until you've reached that goal.
    I'm sure you'll be really greatful for not giving up one day.
