Yearly Art Progression

#1 Post by VenusEclipse »

Are you unsatisfied with your drawings? Here are some images to inspire you.
I would post the link to the article, but it's just a paragraph saying that "practice makes perfect."
And I don't like linking to sites that are not child safe. I'll just post the images. :)

Here are some images to hopefully inspire you. Keep practicing. Don't give up!

http://img4.sankakustatic.com/wp-conten ... ns-011.jpg

If I shouldn't directly link to images on their site, an admin can take them down.
The link was sent from a friend who wanted to inspire me, so I wanted to share it too. :)

Maybe you'll like to make and show one of your own for inspiration.

Wow, that is really inspiring. And it shows that even Japanese artists have their periods of awful, wonky colored pencil anime drawings (I always thought that was strictly an American phenomenon...) :lol:

I've improved a lot over the past 15 years or so. Unfortunately I don't have much to show of my older work. I either gave a lot of it away or it all got lost in different events. I can tell you though that practice makes a big difference over time.
