One of my favorite things is to get lost while driving along country roads. You see some interesting stuff you'd never come across if you weren't lost.
Now that's a nice hobby... :) Do you guys have any photos from such travels?
How could you!
I know, I was so stupid... ;(((
Bit of a perfectionist I'm afraid!
Me too ;(
Don't think I'm up to the PF criticism! Especially since I'm the only one that hasn't studied art at an advanced level.
Have you posted any art on here before?
I haven't yet, but Atch has! :) Unfortunately it was in Random Chat and so they ended up in Polanda :/
As for studying art "at an advanced level" ;D, I wouldn't worry about that, because there are self taught artists out there who are better than many art school graduates ;)
I don't think graduating from an art school makes you any less self-conscious about showing your stuff to people, to be honest... You're still your worst critic lol What I've learned is that there are always going to be people who draw and paint better than you, but also there are always going to be people who like your art no matter how bad you think it is :)) So, who cares... lol
I only ever through drawings away if I wasn't happy with them.
Yeah, that's why I threw them away - I thought they were not good enough and so not worth keeping... Most of them ;O That was before I went to art school, I think. 🤔 I just wanted to keep one, from what I remember - a realistic painting of a kitten that I painted with oil paints and I was actually proud of that one, but my brother ruined it by going over it with a blue ballpen :(( I was so angry... ;(
I found today an old notebook and there are some of my drawings in it, but I'm pretty sure I was at highschool/art school at that time already. Those aren't anything special though - just some random stuff I drew for fun. And I wasn't using any photo references, only my imagination, so there are some mistakes there. Here are some I drew with ballpoint pen and coloured with those big Stabilo highlighers that I was using for studying lol
(the first one is a failed attempt at a manga style drawing ;D):
