i know you all must be thinking where to begin? what to do? where to go.

don't worry

you have stumbled upon a "helping hand" , a savior angel.

the first and foremost thing to do is

1.  make ur sketchy hand very smooth. practice lines curves shades and whatever comes to your head, trust me it is going to help you in future.
2.  practice water coloring, oil painting  anything you like. and make a record of all artworks.
3.  keep scribbling and doodling anywhere and save, (i know this sounds crazy but do it.....it actually helped me once in drawing trees into my portfolio...crazy huh)
4.  if you are good enough in handling a computer and some software, keep brushing up in them. the most important software's are AutoCAD and Google Sketchup. i can provide a full tutorial on it in furthur posts).
5.  doing these activities daily helps you in becoming swift in creating manual portfolios or digital ones by using tablets and so on.
6.  as everyone in the modern era uses their cell phones to check updates on face book and instagram, i would suggest you to like some pages related to architecture, you will be amazed at the information you get to learn everyday by simply reading a few lines looking at photographs and sharing them, from your news feed.

aren't these simple things to start with, i would suggest everybody reading this to follow it and include it into their everyday habit and routine. and pass it onto other friends and colleagues.
