Creativity / Community Art
So recently we had our community art chalenges,which were awesome! (even though I only did 2 of them) I loved seeing everyone's art and it inspired me to do a couple. In our last thread a few users were talking about having an art thread, I thought I'd take the initiative and make it tonight, as Ive been feeling rather arty tonight! haha.
Links to our community challenges #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7
Without further ado, show us what You've been working on we'd love to see it.
I'm going to start off and post tonight's work. I was feeling frustrated, and for once felt like expressing it creatively. I just did a simple tree to get me back into painting as I haven't painted for years! Here's the result 🙂
@litgym I love the shading. You've drawn the angles of the sails well too. They aren't easy. It's good 🙂
Hi everyone! I've been lurking for a couple of weeks, but would really like to share what I've been working on. 🙂
I've had a rougher couple of months than usual when it comes to my mental health, so I would drag this out to distract myself whenever I needed a break from my thoughts.
That's really nice @litgym! I especially love all the detail on the wings. Were you drawing any species of bird (owl?) in particular?
Wow thanks for the kind words @N1ghtW1ng! I've always considered myself a very average drawer, but I tried my first portrait last year and surprised myself. I must've learnt the skills when we did technical drawing work in Graphics / Tech back in year eight -- I thought spending a year sketching pencil sharpeners was a waste of time, but I digress! A couple of tutorials later and yeah, it's proof that drawing can be learnt. I could never and still can't draw from imagination though, that's a really admirable talent. 
not really sure what bird it is haha 
Trying to get how I've been feeling out on paper:
you’re not a terrible drawer !!! when i saw it i was like oh shit she can draw ahahaha, you’re good !!! @annabethxchase
heres the henna I did - i thought I posted it hear but I posted it on my main thread 😞
some art from art class but it’s really bad and sorry how it’s been formatted eh !
That henna looks fantastic @annabethxchase! There's so much detail in such a tiny space. 
That looks like a Mallard duck @litgym, except upside down!! I really like how you've made the feathers look fluorescent / shiny, that's a really clever use of colour and tone.
This is the sketch / self-care that I've been referring to last week haha. His name is Beck.
