I don't upload much of my drawings, as I sketch daily, and it's usually on my copybooks while taking notes in boring courses.

So here's one of the uploaded (the date under the signature is 15/2/2005):




What helps you the most is checking some painters, get the movements and their evolution. Cause art is not in the aesthetics, and that's something people tend to forget.

That's really cool

I'm not really looking into visual arts as a serious thing or anything but it's definitely something that would be fun

You just have to search for some abstract artists to get your imagination flowing. Tho I'm also like you, I hate it when I find my self drawing in a style that I truly dislike.

when i paint i find it actually really easy to make abstract art. with everything else it just downt wanna wowk. right now i don't have any paint/canvas though.... and since i'm already on the pc and i have my pen tablet...

I got a pen tablet last week (bday gift ) still haven't tried it yet. What application do you usually use, cause I still don't have any good ones.

i love the last 2 darkest hour, and #9 your drawings somewhat abstract which i like. really like. story serious, compared to the real album cover thats well good! i would take art as a subject if i was you, you really have potential. i used to be reall **** at art, now i have a B in higher art. be proud of me haha.

there's a few you can use. a really common and simple one is opencanvas.

this is the last version that had online support, which means you can connect with other people and draw with them in real time. so you could complete other peoples drawings or do a picture together. you can also save your own and download other people's "event files" - it basically shows you the process the artist made from beginning to end. really cool.

the later versions are more professional and they aren't free. if you want to get serious about digital art, you can get photoshop CS4. pretty much industry standard, most of the professional art you see these days is created with photoshop. it is highly expensive though, however you can get it other *cough* ways

I already have photoshop (from the other ways) ... as all the other application I have lol. I'm gonna check Open Canvas, seems really good. Maybe I'll get back with some of my own digital art.
