    I mostly do sketches and doodles of animals... Well, I draw people, but they look awful. :p I'm not going to measure up to the awesome drawing by everyone else so I'm not even going to attempt posting a picture of anything vaguely humanoid...

    In descending order of sophistication of drawing program, photoshop, paint.NET, and just plain paint. :p

    Here's a doodle of a crow I did:

    A frog I designed with the vague intention of maybe getting it as a tattoo except I never did :p (It was going to be tiny - like, an inch or so long)

    [​IMG]

    And an elk I sketched as part of a daily drawing thread on another forum:

    I have an account, but I pretty much just put photography on there and it's freakishly out of date. :p I keep meaning to take an afternoon and put up a proper portfolio of every picture I'm proud of having taken or drawn. :p

    TheNewPeter, your watercolour skills are frightening and amazing. I never realised the sort of amazing texture you could get for such subjects - always wrote it off as pastoral landscape-paints... but it makes sense. As a kid when I used watercolours they all just ended up various horrible shades of murky brown and grey. :p

    D'aaw, adorable trees. :D Though, the landscape drawing is pretty good - I reckon you could really do something good with it if you sat down and sketched and didn't add goofy faces :)

    Wow, you can all draw so well! (And I do mean all, I would individually comment on each drawing but I'm too lazy and it'd take too long :p)

    I would post some of mine, but all your drawings make mine look incredibly amateurish. :p

    Heh, mine probably don't. :p

    I'm uploading stuff to my dA account at long last. It's all photos/sculpture at the moment - I've barely scratched the surface. :p

    I keep looking at this thread title and going, "Hey, I'm an artist!", but then I remember it means like painters and drawers and stuff, and I feel excluded.

    Aww. I do weird sculpt-y art things sometimes. I wobble along between arts and crafts and actual sculpture... Did ceramics for a while. Hmm. I think I just got done uploading them on my dA yesterday...

    Well, this turtle teapot is my pride and joy. :p

    Aaand another turtle

    And I'm quite proud of these 2 bowls:

    I only did one class of this, so that's pretty much it until I find someone with a kiln I can buddy up to. :p

    Mel, I love your pottery. The glaze is so beautiful and shiny.

    w176, you really have a way with trees. The first one should be a greeting card.


    So, apparently, my paintings have gone 'missing' in the attic. I really don't know what happened to them. Last autumn there was a major overhaul of the junk that was up there. So, instead of the paintings I have promised, here are some I did today to abate my disappointment.

    Very nice, I like how the one boot is a bit askew from the other, like the character is primed to take action, though the detailed sword also makes that point.
