I've noticed that many of the members here at cB are super talented artistically, with all your graphics, photography, and so on. So I was wondering how your drawings from back in the day look.

Now, I've never really been good at art, but it wouldn't be right for me to start this thread without posting up some of my own work! So here are some from when I was 5...

1. My self-portrait


2. A picture of... my mom (?) decorating the Christmas tree. I don't know what the hell I wrote in the caption box.


3. Butterflies



And just as a little extra, here's a picture a 7-year-old boy drew for me at SFU Summer Camp 2006. It's supposed to be a mouse so caught up in chasing a piece of cheese, he didn't see the "DANGER" sign and is going to fall off a cliff soon.

The last one really makes me laugh. They`re cute! I don`t even think i have any childhood drawings of my own.

oh these are so cute.
the last one my friend said 'is that a..' and the rest is self explanatory.
haha. great thread :D

LMAO!!!
I like the one with the cheese.....hehe

Aw dang these are so cute! I gotta find some of mine... haha. I would think this belongs in art, but I feel it deserves more attention. The art subforum is kinda bare, like a desert. :c

I would have to dig them up from my file..

I agree with Michelle - moved to Art.

But aw, cute! I wanna find some of mine now.

OMG. Those are so adorable! I like the Christmas tree one.

Hm, you know what? Seeing as nobody's posted their own yet, I'll post another one of my drawings up to keep the ball rolling. =D

This one is from an art class when I was about 6/7?


... I made my mom look like she has a bruised face. Damn those felt pens!

lol i wish i had my old journal i found like a year ago :\ it had some CREEPY pictures that i drew in there LOL.

the last one made me lol too

aww
youre such a sweet daughter.

i drew some stuff before, dont know where they all went

This isn't a drawing, but.

^hahaha
i've got lots of notes like that back then.

OMG Hmm, 2000? So were you 8 at the time? That's adorable! I used to bitch about people I hate and list out all my favourite cousins, too. Thanks for sharing, Mark!

^ LOL. I have a part two. ;]

^ LOL,coolest 8 year old evar.

Lame.
It's the only thing I can find. I'll search for some tomorrow :p

Wow, that's some pretty crazy angst for an 8 year old...

This made me remember how much I used to draw pictures for my mom when I was younger... I miss

lmao!i love the last one!

i dont know where all my drawings are =[

Uhh, here is a series of drawings on frogs I did in the same art class at age seven:

1. The art instructor always told us to pick verbs and draw them... so yeah. xD


2. This was some sort of story I made up about a frog and his lady friend. I THINK it went like this: Frog leaves lady friend. Frog comes back begging for mercy but lady friend declines offer. Lady friend bounces back to frog, and frog happily takes her. How I came up with this at that age, I have no idea.


3. My one actual somewhat realistic drawing of a frog. I think the art instructor was right behind me when I did this, and I was deathly afraid of her... so I just copied what was in the book in front of me instead of drawing my own kind of thing.

Dang you were good! I absoulutely sucked back then.

omg that mexican reference has got me LOLing for the past 3 minutes.

Haha even if I was good then, I really suck now. xD

Haha, those drawings are so cute Joanne.

Thanks, Tung! You should post up some of your artwork from back in the day...

Poo, only Michelle and myself have posted drawings so far. Though, Mark's journal entries are way awesome.

I drew this when I was in my mother's uterus.

^ Hahahahahaha, nice.

Anyways... one more for now. I mentioned earlier that my scary art teacher asked us to draw actions. This one's one of my favourites because it made me look so STUPID. Every time my sister sees it she falls over laughing. =( So anyways, this is what eating looked like to me.

I was almost that good. Until I saw the world.

lmao, ok Joanna, maybe tomorrow I'll go look for any childhood drawings I can salvage. NO PROMISES, but I'll try.

rofl those are suuuuuper cute. :)the last one was totally sexy
maybe i'll post mine when i find them. i know i have TONS of them

SWEET! DO IT DO IT!

i wish i still had my childhood drawings so i could CRitique them haha.
