Well I have not uploaded any art recently as I have been learning all about how to colour manga. I think I still have a loooong way to go and I really need to learn more about light and shadow to colour things effectively. It is easy when you are following someone else's example but I don't think I could do it on my own, well not properly anyway.

I will upload one of the pictures I have worked on but it is just a mobile phone picture. I want to start learning how to scan my pictures and brighten the colours. I bought myself photoshop elements 11 but I have no idea how to use it yet so I imagine it will take a while to learn. I can't wait to edit some of my traditional work to get the colours brighter like they are in the actual drawing. Whenever I take a photo of my pictures the colours always come out dull. Who knows, maybe I will try my hand at digital art. I still think traditional will always be my first love though. We'll see.

Well that is where I am.

xXx

Been very busy with work lately and I think it will only get worse. That means I haven't had much time to do any pictures :( I am mostly still trying to learn how to make my pictures look better (in particular how to colour them really well like many of the artists in my favourites) and so haven't really done too many OCs. I want to be the best I can be before I draw my own characters but then I thought that I will always be learning and would never get around to it so I decided to draw and colour my OC, Enara. I will definitely be putting more pics of my OCs up but I plan to do some colour practice first. I also found a few competitions on YouTube which I am considering but I guess it will depend on what time I have. Well off I go to practice :)

I love to draw and colour with pencils and markers although I am not very good. I am not a trained artist and only did art in Primary School and the first few years of High School so I am self taught.

I used to just upload my pictures to an album on facebook but since I started doing some original pieces I thought I would get a deviantART account to ensure I have all of the rights to my images. Not that anyone would want them lol.

I am amazed by the talent of many of the artists on here and I am sure I will soon fill my favourites. I do not profess to be a good artist but I enjoy being creative and learning so I don't mind constructive criticism but please don't be too harsh :)
