Drawings and more drawings

[StarshineSun 9]

Ok, if you came to see my drawings, back out now. My drawings stay in a sketchbook. 

 

To be real honest here, before I met a special friend of mine, my drawings sucked. And by sucked, I mean sometimes you wouldn't have any idea what it was. I commonly enjoyed drawing people, a lot like myself today, but one problem was that I didn't have a realistic goal, so every time I drew something, I would always scoff or frown at it and say something like "This is not how I wanted it to look." Then I met... well I guess it would more be watched a person from afar, and that person happened to be an Otaku, and her drawings of people were what I wanted to make them like. I had tried drawing manga before, but like most everything else I drew, I would scoff or frown and comment on it not meeting my expectations, like always. But I looked at her drawings and drew, and continued to draw getting better by the year. Soon I had to say goodbye to her, but I still continued to draw. Soon, I became more and more satisfied with how each drawing turned out, and I began adding new things to my drawing style, making it more and more pleasurable to look at. But the drawing skills was not the only thing I picked up. I began to learn Japanese words and phrases by watching animes with English subtitles, as well as becoming a fan of Vocaloids, and soon the Black Butler. I changed a lot because of this person. If I were to meet her again, I would tell her "Because of you, I learned to draw this" and hold out some drawing I made. I have actually drawn probably over 400 drawings, maybe even more. Now, if you say to people or yourself "I can't draw" I'm pretty sure you can. If you can write your name, or simply make marks in the dirt, you can draw. Maybe you're not satisfied with your drawings, or you scoff or frown at them every time you draw something it's just that you need practice, that's all. You don't have to learn how to draw, unless it's your passion, or you need to do it to meet a requirement for a mandatory thing. Now how good are my drawings? Well I can't tell you that, because I can't describe quality very well in words. The only things I can say about them, is drawing eyes well is no problem, nor is body shape, hair, nose, mouth, or chin shape. I am mostly skilled at drawing hands and fingers, but feet are difficult. I am completely honest with my drawings, and I have to say, I get a lot of appreciation for it. 

 

That's all I have for now. Cheers!
