Let out the ARTIST in you!!!!

[toni]

Thank you

If only I had a scanner... Should I find myself in possession of some extra money, I think I'd go for a digital camera instead, I would have more use for one of those

You're welcome! We will be waiting..

Yes, I was referring to you and to everybody's drawings on this page, which are the ones I've been able to contemplate with more detail. I still have to go to the previous pages and see what I find on them

I see a beautiful combination of colours among the squares, toni. Well done, really

Here are two picture I did for my AP art class- we were exploring form. Both are of the same subject- a pepper.

^So beautiful big thumbs up to you Adorero!'

As for you toni, you know what I think of your painting , but I must again reiterate, that it is your best work to date I love it!

Toni,
Looks like the makings of a an intersting concept and composition! Looks like you are getting a little bleeding of the grey into some of the squares. Be patient and let the background washes dry first. Another trick is to use a hair dryer on low setting to speed up the drying time.
Keep it up!
You are inspiring me to blow the dust off my brushes.

Great work.
What medium is that? Pastel? and on what type of paper or board?

Thanks :]

The first one is charcoal and the second oil pastel- both on pastel paper. :] I also have one in chalk pastel but I don't like it enough to put on here.

Many thanks, Max. I really appreciate it.

Oh yes, I was cursing to myself as the grey bled on the squares and wondered what I could have done. But this cleared it up, thanks very much! I'll take your advice to heart.
And please, do-pick up your brushes again, maestro.

Merci, monsieur Benoit.

AdoreroDio- Your art teacher must be extremely proud of you for creating a masterpiece. I find it rather difficult to work using oil pastels but your work is an inspiration.

My best attempts...Can't paint though/... I can do some basic simple drawings

[toni]

And these are great drawings, stephofthenight! The details in your first drawing was intricately done and I love the gothic feel of the second one.

[stephofthenight]

thanks I'm glad you like it

Welcome a lot toni

steph, those Gothic drawings are a must. You have a really accurate hand for symmetry. Who's Andy, a brother maybe?

Unimpressive.

I wonder if only drawings/paintings can participate on this thread. Specifically, would this thread be suitable for posting retouched images, animated pictures or any other computer-generated art, or should there be another thread for that? Is there a thread already, for computer art, that anyone knows of?

Why don't you start one, Max? I think it might prove interesting; good idea. It could involve artistic or experimental photos, as well or even animations they post on Youtube or other sites. I would like to see what people come up with. I have something I produced quickly a few years back on my old Photo Deluxe program, of a sunset and page curl with flowers. If you start it I will post it; although mind you, I was just playing around with the program to see what it would do; so it's nothing that great...but it's kind of neat, I think.

I have no brothers, except ryan who i was raised with. but no I should have covered that up, but didnt think about it.
