Painting away on the latest watercolor... :) 1 hr ago
This is a new miniature that I started on - a timberwolf howling. This is a 1/6th scale miniature painting. Hopefully I will have it done in time for it’s deadline.
Those paintings and sketches are really good i wish i had that talent i almost wanted to use one for a school project but we have to do our own drawings
I’m sure you do beautiful drawings. Keep practicing! I couldn’t draw or sketch very well when I started. I kept at it and got a lot better - I know you can do it too!
hey bec, i really love your paintings dp you have any tips on technque because my teachers said i should put my name in for an art scollarship but you have to do a painting… and i CANT PAINT ..LOL i seriously cant my sketches are like yours but i just cant seem to get a proper painting techque.
hey, your an amazing artist! the only thing i can draw is flowers lol. ppl say i’m good but my sucks compared to this haha. i love wolfs and this picture is great.
Krisi, wolf, Lilya, Allie, Amy, Anon, Jennifer - Thanks for dropping by & leaving comments! I’m glad you like it!
Well, tips…
Practice a LOT. Get critiques of your work - ask what you could do to improve them. Observe your subject…the shape, shading, colors…critical. Read lots of books - I like the books “More Wildlife Painting” & “Painting the Drama of Wildlife Step by Step”.
Wow this is amazing! I wanna finally try to take my wolf drawings sseriously since i been drawing them often ( since 3rd grade) and ppl said i drew good wolves so i wuz look over web for inspiration and i seen lots of your work! YOUR GREAT!!!!
i love wolves!!! i am still learning to draw but im 10 and to the piont to where i can do something kinda like that ♥☺ im a huge fan of your art too ☺ ♥
Oh, and also, I was wondering, do you draw/sketch some of your work on computer?
(cause I know there is this one drawing computer program that people who draw anime do it on instead of just drawing on regular paper)
(The program looks so cool it has EVERYTHING that you would need to draw with! It has shadowing and pencil and literally HUNDREDS of doodads!)
Hey I luv Your Drawings! I also am a young artist, but I’m not as good as you! Your amazing at it! Hey, do you think you can draw a horse or something for your website cause then I will put it on my My Space! Well, Love your work,bye!
That’s a great picture! I like drawing animals too. I especially like doing dogs and owls though. I’m not so good at domesticated cats, but I like to do wild cats. I can’t draw wolves as good as you. Mine look like they came from the flea bag!

Hey this picture is amazing. Is there any thing you would like to suggest for an upcoming artist?

Make a lot of artwork. You learn from experience - working in your medium.
That, and make sure that you’re having fun in what you do.
