Perhaps you, too, know the difficulties we experience when starting new things? It was like that for the Skagen painters, too.
Anna Ancher, Laurits Tuxen, and P. S. Krøyer began by making simple line drawings, getting better and better the more they practiced.
Vibeke Krøyer was nine years old when she did the Father Christmas figure. Laurits Tuxen was fourteen when he did the drawing of his room.
The Skagen painters never stopped drawing, not even when they started painting. Did you know that most people stop drawing when they are around ten years old? Have you stopped? Are you still drawing? Or are you going to start again?
