Appreciation post: A $3 notebook from a thrift store gave me a new hobby

I found this old composition book at a Goodwill in Tacoma, and it was full of these really detailed pencil sketches of local birds. I mean, I'm no artist, but it made me want to try. I spent maybe three bucks on it, and then another twenty on a cheap sketchpad and some pencils. Now I go to the park on weekends and just try to draw what I see. It's weirdly relaxing. Has anyone else picked up a hobby from something they found written down?

Sounds like a lot of work for a hobby...

Yeah it can be a lot of work lol. My buddy got so into his model trains that he basically turned his garage into a tiny city. It's wild how deep a hobby can go, right @riverf34?
