Drawings from the Dark side (or... my art)

hmm...

Ok... I tried last weekend... This is what I came up with. I should clean it up and such. And I am terrible in digital drawings (never learned).

Not bad at all

I just now found your thread, Liz! I love your first piece and am looking forward to seeing more of your work!

...and now I have another thread to watch.

Don't let it worry you if you never learned digital art, there are several traditional artists here (myself included though I am trying to learn) that are novices to digital. One thing I'm finding useful is Livestream. Several digital artists will record themselves painting live and you can hop on the stream, watch and ask questions.
*Sidenote: Helps if you use Firefox or another browser with add blocking plugins though... I've never actually seen the adds but I've heard from some they get annoying after a while.*

P.S. You're off to a good start (I really like her expression and the way her hair turned out) and I look forward to what you come up with next. Two things I am curious about... it looks almost like there is a face in the chair behind her (right next to her head) is that intentional? Also is that blood running down the wall in the background?

You do great, dramatic faces Liz!
And, out of the two pics you posted, I can see a lot of improvement in the second. Body proportions are great, less skewed by perspective.

Keep working the pencils! I'd love to see you posting more often than once or twice a year!

Be Well!

Thanks Fireheart... Feeling a little guilty on not drawing more. Just need inspiration.

*piles on more guilt*

Yes we demand more frequent artz nao!

I can also see many improvements over your last offering Liz and there are some nice intricate details
added so congratz on that but don't let another 6 months go by, you should really keep after it...
even VexXxa is passing you in the pencil artz department, and she's like slow n stuffz.


P.S. I kid of course, it's not a race but the more often you practice the faster you will see improvement.
What do you think would help inspire you more?

Very nice job... Meant to say so earlier so I'm glad thread got bumped to remind me
