Hey everyone! My name's Sky, and I just recently stumbled into this site. I took a look at some of the lesson previews, but were not able to see them because I was not a member. So lo and behold, I joined, and I hope I'm going to like it here. ^^

I've been drawing since I was 8-9 (18 now) but I really only took art seriously last year. So I'm a little bit of a late bloomer, so to speak. I want to learn as much as I can before my Senior Year of high school ends, so I have some skill to help me for college courses.

I'm not entirely clear on what I want to be. I'm thinking somewhere in the animation industry, seeing as I love cartoons and draw them. I'm better at doing fast, messy sketches, and my work style is typically speedy, if that makes sense. It's hard for me to spend more than an hour or two on a drawing, but i've been working on taking more time to do so. Longest so far has been a four hour digital painting, so I'm getting better at spending time.

Sorry for rambling, but this an introduction. So glad to be here, and I hope to meet some cool people as well as learn!

Welcome to Drawspace, Sky. I look forward to seeing your work!

welcome and i know what you mean about drawing for a long time and just not taking it seriously, i got back in to drawing seriously when my friend showed me some of his cartoon drawings but now i moved on to portraits and things that need more shading but im glad i have someone around my age here thats into the same stuff as me im 16 and hoping to improve alot of my artistic ability by my senior year too.

ps- ive learned alot here you will too

Hey there!

I'm new to the site too, I found it the same way you did and I find their lessons very helpful, I want to be a tattoo artist when I go off to college, luckily I have a few years until then. But I'm sure you're very stressed if you're a senior in highschool.!


good luck xx
