Being able to draw people well opens a whole world to you. Not only do you now have a valuable skill that can earn you a bit of change at any tourist site, but you can also give someone a meaningful gift at a moment's notice.
Drawing people is also endlessly interesting, and a surprisingly effective way to see into people's character. You will learn that body language is as telling as any expression.
With some understanding of the human form, plus a little bit of practice every day (30 minutes is a good start), you will be amazed at your progress in as little as a month. And always remember -- this is supposed to be fun... don't take yourself too seriously!
