art thread?

Hi folks. I've just bought a box of coloured pencils, and will be working on my first drawing soon. I'll post the completed work here. Would love people to post their art here for us to see. Doesn't matter what type of art - drawing, painting, photos/photo manipulation, cake decorating, quilting, poetry, origami, whatever. Let's have some fun and show our creativity. 🙂

Hiya skwerl !

The real pic of the tree really is fantastic....I think it could be in NZ, as the face on the left has tribal tattoos.  I'll post another pic that might show more detail.

The flowers and tree look great soul. 

All that's left now is to the apply the watercolour pencils to this drawing. A3 size.

Have you finished the painting yet moonlight ?

also wanted to askyou.....how do you put the copyright doovie on your work ?

Gill, I'm not really sure where the tree is, I thought NZ too, becasue of the facial tattoos but will try to remember to ask my friend who gave me the pic where she got it from.  When one of OH's brothers was younger he was going to get tribal tatts on his face....thankfully he didn't (he looks scary enough as it is lol) and you have to actually earn the tattoos and get permission.

I'm still working on the big painting.

I wasn't happy with how it was turning out, so I left it unfinished. As for the copyright symbol, I just copied and pasted it from the internet. 🙂

good  progress

[soul_art]

What is it that you're not happy with moonlight ?

You never know, someone may come up with a solution to whatever it is that doesn't feel "right" to you.

[moonlyte]

Well, my pencils didn't give me the colours that I wanted, and the colours that I used don't look right. It just looks wrong.
