You need to click on them to get the full size version wink.gif

I like them ACP, very weird (in a good way).

Unfortunately I won't be contributing anything good to this thread due to my complete lack of any sort of artistic talent, but I might do a cartoon in Paint if I'm bored smile.gif

Well, you contributed by helping me, at least !! biggrin.gif

I could say the same to you !! Do you / did you spend much time on drawing ?

I did when I was younger (18-20). It was a way to express my sadness at the time. Nowadays, I'm just too happy to draw, or to write poems, so I just don't do this kind of things anymore. tongue.gif

P.S. Oh yes, remember that I don't want to be admired for my talent (see a former topic wink.gif ).
nicki_flute
Sarah - love the tiger smile.gif I could never do anything like that

ACP - Wow, those pictures are just amazing. So thought out.
sarah-flute
Not as much time as I should really! I need to get myself organised so that all my pencils/paper etc is out and all I have to do is sit down and draw! Then I would do more. I am supposed to be doing a picture for someone's birthday on 17th... and I haven't even found all my stuff. I would be better/quicker if I spent more time doing it!

I used to write a lot of poetry, too... these days only when I feel moved to!

Did you do those pictures from your imagination? I'm not very good at that... I can draw from photos and pictures though.

OK, I don't admire you for your talent, am I allowed to admire your drawings still though? tongue.gif laugh.gif

edit: Nicki, it's white paint on black paper and then pretending I'm using a pencil! I can't paint except for that, I'm rubbish at painting smile.gif
nicki_flute
I never draw at all. I go through phases, and do have watercolours, sketching pencils, etc but never use them. I have to copy something too.

I can't write poetry for toffee smile.gif

I knew it was paint on paper, but that is why I like it.

Yes, I draw always from my imagination, because I don't like trying to do what a camera can do much better than I.
Similarly, I'm not a sight-reader in music neither, I like improvising more. tongue.gif

(And thank you anyway for the compliments. tongue.gif )
nicki_flute
Wow, I really am in awe of them!

I have got my sktchbook back and I have scanned a drawing in, what to i do now?
Car Expert
I can't believe this has happened, but this was what my friend told me today!

My art teacher in Year 9 (who now teaches my friend because he does GCSE Art) threw my sketchbook in the bin! mad.gif

Car Expert
fluteandbassoon
Oh No! I know how long it takes me to do my art homework and I feel so sorry for you as it a whole sketchbook. Why was it thrown?
Car Expert
I don't have a clue!

Ceri, what did you draw it with - is that painted, or coloured pencils or pastels or...?
fluteandbassoon
It is painted. ph34r.gif
sarah-flute
Oh right smile.gif

it's good; smile.gif

I can't paint to save my life.
fluteandbassoon
Thanks. smile.gif

I love painting and using oil/chalk pastels. I can't stand pencil crayons as I always do them too light (even though they take half the time).

I am going to try and find the little studies I did in the holidays which were in water colour.

EDIT: this time last year I could not paint either, but doing a GCSE where one of the major projects is to paint.

Don't know why I did this, but if you can't paint to save your life, why not use Paint?! laugh.gif

Wow Ceri, Choddy... smile.gif *claps*

Love the new drawings. I remember when I did Graphics in year 9 at High School (different school to my current school, we change schools at the end of year 9) we had to draw a chocolate bar!

I can't. I tried to draw a cow for pictionary once and the guesses ranged from mouse to hippo. laugh.gif
another crazy pianist
This reminds me of an old school anecdote.
I remember once we had to make an animal in woodblocks, and go to the teacher and tell what it was.
So I decided to make a horse, but it came up with a too high back and too high legs. The teacher immediately said : "Oh, what a nice camel !" So I officially named it a camel... and got a good result ! biggrin.gif
