My Bio
I'm a female adult beginner in the world of drawing portraits (and other stuff, it seems).
(Even though I've had this account for 4 years already, I only became active here at about the second trimester of 2011.)
While I have a professional background in the performing arts, I haven't really picked up a pencil since elementary school. In other words, I have no idea what the hell I'm doing.
I want to learn and get better though.
Which is why I've decided to start posting here, in the hopes of getting a little feedback if possible. ;)
I'm planning on posting everything I do here. From my first attempt, via the ones I don't like very much, all the way to the ones I'm quite proud of.
It will be a good way to keep track of my progress and I've personally found it extremely encouraging to see 'early' works of those that have become great artists on this site. Perhaps somewhere in the future someone will find it helpful to see where I started???
Did my first two ones in 2010, many months apart. I'd say I started drawing seriously (more regularly) in February of 2011 :)

Tools of the Trade
Pencils, paper, erasers
Don't mind me, just having a little whine. ;)
So.
I just uploaded a piece of crap hot mess into my scraps.
Total failure, but at least some proof to myself that I haven't done absolutely zilch these past few months.
I'm really not completely sure where my motivation went. Of course at first I actually had about 0 time due to the pup, but when that let up, it somehow became hard for me to pluck up the patience and courage to just sit down and art.
After a bit of soul-searching, I've come to the conclusion that it has at least a wee bit to do with my exhibit and the results thereof. Or more accurately; non-results.
Oh sure, I got a ton
