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 my friend said 'is that a..' and the rest is self explanatory.
haha. great thread :D
JokeInsideJoke
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 agree with Michelle - moved to Art.

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

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

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.

Haha, those drawings are so cute Joanne. XD.gif
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. thumbsup.gif

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

Joanne
^ 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.

No way lol. If I found drawings from when I was really really young, it'd be something to laugh at xD
gojira
wtf @ joanne not thinking frogs are ugly but whales are.
Joanne
I had to draw frogs... my art teacher made us draw them for the whole entire year, pretty much. And that was before my fear of whales. _smile.gif
Joanne
BUMP. How is it possible for this thread to have almost 3000 views, but only 40 replies?

If I have you on Facebook, you've probably already seen these.

I was a fan of Pokemon.
