Hi, I'm Douglas Simonson, and my mission here on YouTube is to help you realize your creative self. While I tend to focus on the how-to's of drawing, painting, and photography, that's just part of why I'm here. My broader mission is to communicate my strong belief that EVERYONE is creative--the only thing that blocks us is fear. It's my hope that I can help inspire you to believe in your creative self and allow it to flow!
