Michael's Sketchbook

[Certain]

Hello my name's: Michael and I'm fifteen years old. I live here in the Great White North. I've been drawing for a little bit now and I'm forever obsessed with the Blues. Therefore I play guitar as well!

Thanks to my friend Tessa for inspiring me to make a Sketchbook here after hearing about the collapse of CA.org.

Here's a couple drawings to start that I did a few weeks back.



I love Tolkien; he's a portrait of him!


Drapery study I don't think I ever showed anyone of it completed


Jimmy Page and some imaginary pen drawings.


Please toss feed back my way and I'll return it kindly(If I haven't already:P)!

Hi Michael.
Wow, you started with some really good traditional work here, great way to open your sketchbook.
I'm amazed that you are fifteen and you already have some basics. Keep up with great work and I'm looking forward seeing your progress. Have fun :)

I'm reading Lord of the Rings right now. Here's Old Man Wilow.


Here's Tom Bombadil's House from The Fellowship of the Ring.

Nice start to the sketchbook Michael. I'm really digging the last two pen drawings. It's really chaotic but still pleasing to the eyes!

I agree, those last two pen drawings are definitely on a good path

@ToxicPanda - Thanks man! I wasn't thinking of putting my age for it might seem a bit arrogant. But I feel in order to recieve propper feed back and to help people visullize where I'm at exactly I put it in. Thanks again man, you stuff's great!

@MonoOrder - Yes, I definitely agree. I'll try to pump out some more pen drawings.

@Corza334 - Thanks :)

@antmora - Thanks, your portrait is great!

Neat torso study. Is it a master study? Or photo reference?

From my drapery studying.




This one was from life. Haven't ever done a lifedrawing before, only from reference.

Some more Lord of the Rings stuff! Can anybody help teach me how to resize the images in this thread, they are far to large for viewing :/

Tessa presented me with an awesome picture, so I painted it! :)
