Hello, my name is Ally. ^^' I'm currently 16 and I live in the US ont he east coast. Alot of people say, "wow you're good" but i'd really like them to say, "Wow! O_O! You're Fabulous!" Because good = crap. Which I find most of my work to be:

^ Sadly enough, that's probably my best piece right now. I like how I can do vibrant coloring, but at the same time, I wish I could do more darker tones.
v This is probably my 2nd best. But again, it's TOO vibrant

And yet again, a good picture, ruined because my colors are too bright:

Uh, I'm eboluuuh, and I really need help with art in general. XD It took me a while to gather the courage to finally post. I haven't been able to draw much lately so don't worry~

Age: 14 (15 in a few days).
Drawing interests: creepy or violent things.
Drawing time: maybe 3 or 4 years, but only a little while with cartoonism; maybe a year (at most).
The Iconoclast
Let's see, cheap/free/pirateable digital art programs.

Um, Painter 7/8 (difficult for me, but Toasty can tell you about it)
Open Canvas (stick with ver. 1 if you can find it, it's free)
Pixia (never used it)
Illustrator (if you're interested in learning vectors)
Flash (yes, you can draw interesting things in Flash)
Um... I know there are others, can't think of them right now.
Found this on Open-canvas's journal on deviantart. Download.

allychan, your characters' faces don't seem to have any expression and the hands are all pretty dramatic. just draw yourself making crazy faces in the mirror as well as your hands in more natural poses.

eboluuuh, there are only two drawings so i have no advice to give to you yet. ):

ichigo, your characters' facial features need to wrap around the face; not just lie flat.

at 14/15/16 i could not draw this well; please keep practicing and using models! and why aren't there more people posting in here? =_=

Gah, I forget if I've posted in this community or not, but seeing that my art thread is on the haitus has me itching to rub elbows with artists again and just toss and catch critique. 3nodding
You could say my work falls into the cartoon/comicy spectrum of things- I enjoy for my work to tell a story, get a chuckle or have people ask questions rather than it being merely eye candy in peoples signatures. Lately, I've ben dissapointed to find that perehaps that spark in which I used to churn out the artsies has been flickering- so here I am. Fling the tomatos as you please, but lets see some reasons behind those tosses.

I'm Burger,
I'm 19 and TRIED to be an art f**, but sadly failed. I have a minor obsession with things that crawl and have long antennae (i.e. Slugs, snails, cockroaches, etc.) I also really have to go to the bathroom but I'm too lazy to get up.

HOORAY!

Ferno. I'm 14, and ashamed to say that I draw moderatly (okay, so pretty serious XD) anime style. That'd be what I wanna do most. Lessen how anime styled my art is, but in doing that, I think I'd have to switch to lineless art, and that's like going from diapers to toilets. XDD So um...yes.

Hi, I'm Kelly. I'm 23. I'm in Maryland.

I was going to request to join this guild, but I get this feeling I wouldn't make it. I'm not sure of my own work, I don't know why I would expect anyone else to be.

I always have these beautiful images in my mind, but it's like my hands won't produce what I'm seeing. I'm sure it's that way for a lot of people. My art is generally black and white pencil--I post it anywhere and the first thing I get is "omg color it!" But I feel like that would ruin what I've drawn.

I'm stuck in the anime style, and as popular as it is, I don't want to be there. I wish there was a How to Stop Drawing Manga Characters book.

I sell art here on Gaia, but a lot of times I wind up just giving it away. I really only do it for practice.

Should I post some of my art? I wasn't too sure on that one. I've noticed some people do and some don't.

I would like some assistance with taking my art beyond pencil sketches. I suck at hands, and I would love some suggestions on that matter... basically I just need a lot of advice and beating about the head.

I'm Matt, I'm 17, and I'm here because I want to be good at what I do. I've been an artist since as long as I can remember, but of course, if I want to be successful, I need to better myself, and get advice from people who really know their s**t. I've made some money from my art, but not enough to call it a marketable skill. So I guess I'm here for improvement.
