Nice, it's experimental and different. I like how you try different styles, I think it's the only way to really grow as an artist.

Dr.Snoopy (edited Nov 7, 2006)

Thanks! Although that you risk to make something that doesn't "look good", there is also a high risk to learn something new and get inspiration for further work.
In my eyes it's all about skill and making mistakes.
When I paint, then I try do implement some elements that I already mastered (being able to do them intentionally), and as I paint there occur some unintended mistakes. Some of them look interesting and others do not.
So I try to follow those new elements and try to understand what makes them so interesting. And if I don't make mistakes, I force them to happen by drawing intentionally not correct.
It is a lot of fun, but you should not try to many different things at once. Keep it simple and try to put some time into this new thing.

Making too many mistakes at once (well, you/me already do infinite unintended movements at any moment) makes your work seem pretty random.
And this is what I do wrong...I do not develop enough skill in every style.
I do not draw enough to handle them all.

EDIT: Is it just me, or can others also not see most images on 2draw?

Kloxboy (Nov 7, 2006)

I totally agree. I let my imagination and skill collaborate as much as possible, and I'm all about happy mistakes sometimes. I like your system.

And yes, every other day, it seems a good third of the images don't load properly. Might be our browsers though, not sure. oO

Dr.Snoopy: you put in words what I was discovering in an intuitively way.

Self-Portrait

MrPaul (Oct 20, 2006)

Hi everyone, this is my first post here at 2draw. I thought it would be fitting to draw a self-portrait for my introduction. A friend from paintchat introduced me to this site recently and ever since I�ve been shocked and amazed at all the talent that runs rampant on this site! I also have a tendency of discarding my art quickly out of boredom, so maybe this site can help me break that bad habit. Comments & Critiques are always welcomed� I�m here to learn, grow, and maybe make some new friends along the way. Ok, discuss! Ciao.

This is coloring I'd have trouble with and I don't know why. The line art is smooth and the color combo is interesting. Almost makes me think of a transformed Superman. Yes I know that's weird. :)

Sasuke-fan-Sapphire (Oct 26, 2006)

awesome =D

Kayos (Nov 1, 2006)

Despite it being so little, the amount of detail is amazing. Good work!! This is very well done.

Shigatsu_Sensei (Aug 23, 2006)

The_Chosen (Oct 7, 2006)

is done.... started out just messing around showing some one some of the tools and it ended up a bad sketch of Abel so I re drew him like this ^_^

Edit: it's really hard to draw on a little tablet when you are used to having one 4 times the size of the one you are using.....I Drew this at a friends house after a Halloween costume birthday party. One guy came in an amazing V costume and took a picture with me while sticking his finger up my nose he was also sitting in people�s laps and hugging their heads I wish I had gotten a pic of that lol
