a huge thank you!

Thu Oct 29, 2009, 1:27 AM
I must admit Iv'e been bad. I've not thanked people for all the fav's... So this is a collective thank you and an attempt to try and keep on top of them....


Seeing as the majority of the attention in my gallery of late has been towards the stamps, I'd like to ask for "your" suggestions of what stamps you'd like to see.... just now I am working on a Dexter one, and I have one for Deb in the back of my mind, other than that I am open to suggestions :)

Devious Journal Entry

Journal Entry: Wed Jul 29, 2009, 3:45 AM
So pretty membership for a few days, so I'll update and leave this journal.....


I'm now working full time and studying full time. So life is super crazy.

I get up way too early, and don't get much sleep.

I've sort of given up on dA, I feel very little need to put more of my art/photography/writing up, though I am still enjoying viewing and reading what other people are contributing.

  • Mood: Tired

I'll be there when....

How can I learn to draw like......

Thu May 21, 2009, 12:53 PM
  • Mood: Peaceful
  • Listening to: Most of the Time - Bob Dylan
  • Reading: Holy Blood and Holy Grail
  • Drinking: Ginger Tea
So after years of threatening myself about having to spend the days/weeks/months/years learning to draw well.... I decided now is as good a time as any to start!

There are a couple things I've drawn/sketched over the years and put here, the one I'm most proud of is [link] but in all honesty I would love to be able to "eventually" draw like some of the following deviants


:bulletblack: ~Alleycatsgarden
:bulletblack: ~ScarletBegonias88
:bulletblack: ~emele-the-strange
:bulletblack: *Zindy

exceptionally ambitious I know... but this is something I really want to put heart and soul into.... how/where/with what materials is the best place to start learning the basics? I already know I majorly suck at proportions, but other than that I wouldn't know where to start with shading or anything else for that matter?

A direction would be nice :D not that I'm particularly specific, I want to draw everything from people through to cars, and race horses......
