Sketchbook Criticism for a friend. June,2012

Well, hello there, CA people! I'm here because my friend is looking for some critique for her art work, but she's a bit too busy to post here, so I thought why don't I? I myself may post something I've made here to get some critique for it, but for now, I want to help my friend.

She likes to draw cartoon animals, mainly canines, and she tried to draw anime at one point. I'll put up artwork the displays both. Any kind of answer would be appreciated.

Sketchbook Challenge Yourself June,2012

I think that the reason why I haven't really posted some of my artwork online is because I have been second guessing myself and I always think that maybe I'm not able to achieve what others have. When this happens to me, I grab some quotes I have held by over the years, just to share one of them,

I find hope in the darkest of days, and focus in the brightest. I do not judge the universe.

What's yours?

Sketchbook Graphic Designer Seeking a Drawing Mentor June,2012

Twenty-something graphic designer here looking for a mentor or guidance consultant, basic drawing and on. Quick learner and good listener. I'm more or less the product of a long lineage of printers and typesetters, and while layout and composition lent itself freely to my abilities, putting pencil to paper has always been a source of frustration, impatience, and difficulty for me.

I'm looking for someone to really push me.

I'm currently working with Andrew Loomis' Fun with a Pencil, and while the first 12 pages are fun, I always get this feeling like I'm not understanding the whole lesson, and often times I'm not sure when to move on to the next chunk.

I'd really prefer to meet for chatting/video conferencing once a week, but forum communication will suffice, in a pinch.

Feel free to ask me any questions!

Sketchbook Hello CA, I've invaded. June,2012

Hey guys, I'm aooi, new to CA.org, and here to learn, improve, and excel.

Started drawing unofficially when I was like 6. Didn't like drawing much, because my mom kept wanting me to draw people, and I hated drawing people. I wanted to stick with my Pokemon.

After a while, I hadn't even thought about art until I was around 10 or 11. That's when I really wanted to draw a whole bunch of Pokemon, and since my parents gave up on me drawing since I obviously hated it, they didn't care about me drawing that Pokemon.

Thirteen came along and I went through my anime addiction phase, which is also when I started to draw anime. My mom was glad I was drawing people, but still wanted me to draw realistic people, which I hated 1000x over! So, I stopped drawing again.

Fifteen arrived, and now I began taking a huge interest in Orenji-kun on Deviant Art. I began to learn from his drawings, but the anime aspect was still a fave. Sixteen came next, and I got my first Wacom tablet after watching jurithedreamer's video drawings. I wondered "how on earth could someone draw with such precision!?" Then I discovered the digital tablet. June 2010, the day when my interest in art officially started.

Seventeen was filled with experiments with different styles of art. Eighteen, which is now, is when I began to really dig into the subject and start learning piece by piece.

I'm not majoring in art, but it's always been a very big hobby of mine. I want to be able to draw realistically, and incorporate some fantasy. I'm no longer interested in anime, but full out realistic art, with realistic proportions, and realistic coloring.

While I lack actual knowledge in art (God help me if I understand any artsy terms), I still want to improve myself through observation and repetition.

I'm typically an on-and-off artist, since my life is pretty busy with other aspects. However, I have plenty of time to practice now, and I'm not going to let this summer go to waste.

I'm going to have two sketchbooks (if it's allowed!) I've taken an interest in creating tutorials. Mostly because I sometimes learn something amazing, but then I stop drawing for five months, and forget everything. If I make tutorials for myself, I can not only remember everything, I can also learn from myself, and teach those who may require my tutorials. I'm not the best artist for these tutorials, but I do what I can to help.

When I was sixteen, I searched far and wide for tutorials that explained things explicitly. The tutorials I saw didn't help much. Create a drawing 'skeleton?!' Use circles and ovals?! Proportions?! They had approximate values but whenever I tried to draw it myself, there were aspects that were completely off.

So, my tutorials are filled with very meticulous measurements and observations. It may seem (and probably is) very unnecessary, but if I had my own tutorials when I was younger, I wouldn't need to make them for myself now.

My other sketchbook will be for my showcased art. I don't have much to offer on that aspect, and I probably won't be making it until next year. Who knows!


Either way, I'd love to talk with some of the professionals here, and obtain advice on how to improve proportions, coloring, realistic look, color values, etc., because the only way I can learn those aspects is by observation or by critique!
