Some drawings from my sketchbook... Options

[*disco infiltrator*]

I think I'll be switching to Georgia.

Anyway, here's some stuff out of my sketchbook...keep in mind, I haven't been drawing for very long at all. >< Just starting...

Cats
Being in the play Cats inspired me. XD The girl is a dancer in the play and the eye represents the moon, as on the program of the show.



Don't Look
This is a work in progress. The girl is naked and trying to censor anything she doesn't want seen to the world. She doesn't want to see the world either; any bothersome visuals are bad. She's not looking and the world can't look at her, where the title Don't Look comes from. I can't figure out what to draw in the background, so if you have any suggestions, let me know!



Growth
This is probably my best work drawing yet (yea, that's how bad I am XP). The man's mind is curious and the roots of the tree represent his curiosity. As the roots seek and find minerals (knowledge), the tree (his mind) grows. I don't know why the man is Indian, I just really like Indian people.



Longing
I'm sure everyone who's into drawing has done a drawing like this. The girl's face is blank, everything from her memory is grey and blacked out because she doesn't want to remember. She looks out the window at the free air and all of the advances that the world is making without her.



Err, that's all for now. Thanks! :D

Ok, first of all...

I loved the CATS one. I love the music from that show, and the dancing is incredible. I think you really captured the spirit of it in that drawing.

That "Longing" drawing you did. You have no idea....no idea how much meaning is behind it. Or maybe you do since you drew it :) But I see so much in that drawing.
In the "don't look picture" as for the background, really think of what would be behind her. Certaintly not the world and her future, because that could represent her moving forward, she is being held back by herself and her insecurities it seems, and I would draw out her insecurities binding her, if that makes sense?
I will give you full marks on "Growth" for the creativity. I mean, ah i'm just so proud of fellow art students :)
I don't want to get too technical...I mean I'm a person that is REALLY picky on shading, I think shading is what really makes a picture.
But as for your creativity and ability to go deeper with your drawings, i think you are amazing!
post more of your work girl!
man, i wrote a lot!
