Some of my realistic artwork

Post Reply New Topic

Hi everyone,
I think i have worked out how to upload some of my drawings...
I like drawing as i can be in my own world .. great escapism.. well until my perfectionist side kicks in lol...













I have been a bit down on myself lately but hoping to do some more work soon

crap.. they turned out too small.. hmm computers and i dont mix

Looks very realistic

Ok i think i worked it out.. hopefully its not too big now

How do you make such realistic art?

Hi thinkinginpictures - love your name by the way i use a lot of pencil layers... just kinda getting the feel for it and for the different tones.. i normally use ref pictures, but also work from life..
This one i did in scratchboard.. which is basically a clayboard that has been painted with black ink.. then i draw with a razor blade to take the fur etc back to white.. then if i want a softer tone i can paint over parts with diluted ink.

no its not too hard once you get the hang of it... i taught myself out of books..
Thanks for taking an interest i appreciate it
Do you do any artwork?

your music is really good sounds like something out of the movies.. great drawings as well.. how did you learn to compose like that?

arrtgrrl, your drawings are amazing.

I have absolutely no artistic ability as I cannot perceive depth, dimensions etc. but I really do appreciate what other people can do. The coats of those cats look so real.

This is amazing! I think you should make money out of your drawings.

thank so much chummy and Cosmicruss much appreciated .. i love getting lost in a drawing.. i drew an elephant once and i got completely lost in time drawing all those wrinkles..

You should definitely make money from your art - if you want to. You're very talented.

I would buy one of your drawings.
