Alright, so I like art.
A lot.
I'd even like to believe that I'm sorta good at it.
Key phrase: like to.
Unfortunately there's plenty of room for improvement.
That's where you all come in 3nodding
So. There's another thing.
I have a lot of art.
Therefore, instead of posting it all here and absolutely killing Gaia and your computers with all of the graphics, I'm simply going to provide a link.
Hopefully you all will take a peek whee

Yeah... my Anatomy kind of sucks sweatdrop .
I checked an anatomy type-book... thing... out of the library a while ago, but I never actually looked at it. I'm a bad person, I know.
Thanks much for the comments 3nodding

I love the Hershey's Kiss.

Makes me hungry. ;>>

I also really like the handwriting sample; I get similar comments very often. Just yesterday I was doing a math problem on the board, and my teacher said my handwriting looked like hieroglyphics! xD

I love the still life with a bucket of apples. It looks like fairy tale illustration. And I can't believe it's done with coloured pencils - it's my favourite traditional media, but I haven't ever managed to end up with so vibrant, saturated colours. How did you do that?
I also like that airbrushed piece because of it's colour scheme and composition.
In pencil section are also alot of good drawings. As someone before mentioned - especially still life.
As for portraits - I guess you'll need some more references, because they look rather unnatural (but maybe it's just a matter of stylization, so I don't know).

It's not stylization, I just suck that much razz

As for the colored pencils... I press really really hard.
I also mix colors, often laying down the darker colors first and then coloring over them with the lighter tones.
I guess I treat them like paints...

Square Watermelon: Thanks xd .
I remember that that one took me forever. It was for my first real art class 3nodding

I really don't think my handwriting is that bad...
Could you read it?

So which colored pencils do you use? If I try to lay one layer on another it begins to look dirty and color transitions aren't soft. Just like some of pics at http://ilraeth.deviantart.com/gallery <-- those made with crayons. I really don't like how the colors look on them (especially on piece called "Molu").

I didn't say your anatomy sucked
I said it could use a little bit of revision xD
Thats kind of funny though. I didn't learn much about the face from anatomy books. A little but, I learned more from experience.
your welcome

Prismacolors.
I heart them.
A lot.
They are pretty expensive, though... but then, what isn't?
I actually kinda like the rough/sketchy feel some of your colored pieces have.

lait_renverse: I'm overcritical of myself.
At least, that's what I'm told...
My art teacher a couple years back handed out these sheets that showed how the facial structure works... I'm pretty sure I threw them out, but they were quite helpful.
Wonder why I did that...

I think I do.
Like when my AP English teacher hands out sheets that say what choices we have for thesis topics, I always want to do something that's not on the list.

Also like when the new art teacher decided that she wanted to say things about my work- critical or approving, whatever- I didn't like it.
At all.
But I think that that's because she kind of hides behind you for a couple of minutes and then talks...
Creepy...

Thank you sooooooooooo much!!!

Graphite.
Just because I'm cheap like that whee
If I had the money my favorite would probably be oil pastels... or maybe just pastels... I'm not quite sure.

non lo so

Your eye and attention to detail is amazing... anatomy is hard, I know... but it's really easy if you learn the best ways to get good at it. Congratulations on being able to draw still-life so well... I couldn't do it for the life of me, that good mrgreen .
