I've been really busy with school, and art right now, so I have been neglecting my blog, but while I've been away, I was still taking photos, and here are some of my favourites. Hope you like them :)

I recently went into my nearest town, and took some photographs. Photography is art too right? So i'm going to post a few of my favourite shots.

This man was sitting painting, and he looked so peaceful, I just had to capture it.

I've not been posting on this for a while, but it is because I have been SOOOO busy!! School is taking over right now haha. But now it is a holiday, so I can manage a few more posts. Here are a few paintings I have been doing while I have been away. They are for my Advanced Higher Art and Design course.
Enjoy :)

QOD:Whether I'm painting or not, I have this overweening interest in humanity. Even if I'm not working, I'm still analyzing people.

It's a start...

New Sketchbook!

Yay, first proper blog post! I decided to treat myself to a new A3 sketch book, and a How to Draw book to get me started. The sketchbook was around £10 from artdiscount online, and the book (Giovanni Civardi) was off amazon for around £8. Its like with school revision, I go out and buy a tonne of stationary, pads and highlighters to get me excited for studying, it works for about 30 minutes then i'm bored... haha.  This on the other hand I didn't get bored of (yet!) , I am now sort of addicted to drawing a couple of drawings every night, I sometimes draw when I am watching the TV (90120, TVD, New Girl etc etc...) and other times in my bed.

I've starting drawing hands and feet as I know I find these hard to draw. In the pictures are my first few attempts, which could be better, but could also be a lot worse. If I keep practicing I hope I will improve. 

I have a week off school now so I should be doing a lot more in my fancy new sketch book (I painted the cover), and I will be sure to post it on here.

My favourite colour is red.

An introduction...

I have been wanting to start a blog for a while now but never got around to actually doing it. So here I am at 1:10 in the morning writing my first blog post.
All I knew when I started making this, was that I wanted to blog, but not a scoobie what to blog about. So I started thinking (never a good thing), what is the one thing I love and enjoy. The one thing I am truly passionate about? Art.
I am 17 ,and by no means an expert, but I have a bit of a talent, and it is something I will do for the rest of my life, whether its painting, collaging or simply sketching.
I am going to start making a portfolio for a course I want to apply for, and I will post pictures as I go along.
I am quite excited now! I want to start drawing straight away, but I can't as I need to sleep and I have a higher maths prelim in a couple of days (ahhhh!!!!)
This blog will properly start on the 10th of February, I think. We will see haha
Goodnight or should I say good morning ? Who knows... Speak soon.
