Hi, I haven't done one of these yet so why not - xelfereht - 07-13-2017

Hi all,
my name is Andrew,
from Australia
Decided to make an effort to improve at art when I was around 25, currently 29
Formal education wise I have a certificate in applied design and a Degree in Film and television
but honestly self online education is where its at ;)

I'm more than happy to help out any dudes/dudets that want my help!
If you need some direction or a critique, feel free to get at me.
My links to errthang are in my signature!

Art wise I started not knowing what to do but I've gone towards character/figure based art.
Mostly digital but I like, and attempt traditional mediums like pencils, paints and sculpting.
I try to keep an open mind cos you sometimes cant tell how much you like something till you try it
and your like and dislikes tend to change over time and its good to be conscious of that.

If you wanna help me out, you can follow, watch and subscribe to any of my social media thanggsss..

besides This kind of art I have also been dancing for 16 years
90% of my friends are dancers and I don't know many artists personally so I'm down for making friends

this me

Heheh - it's cool that you finally got around to doing one of these after 4 years dude!

And how the heck did you get your body to do that upside down thing??

Your art looks pretty awesome from where I'm sitting and it's great to see you helping out around here :).

Looking forward to seeing more from you and good luck with your stuff :).

@Artloader: Or the camera's upside down and he's pushing the world up!

@xelfereht: What Loader said. You're one of the few people who extended and offered their hand right out the gate. Hey man, really awesome to have you be an active part of this.


RE: Hi, I haven't done one of these yet so why not - xelfereht - 07-16-2017

@Artloader: well, you get your handstands down, then you try one hand, you stretch and put it all together
If you wanna learn i have some dance tutorials on youtube :P

lol, same as learning to paint really, at least I see allot of similarities

@John: Man I'm so happy if I can be of help out, cos I wish people were more like that so I'm trying.
I'm so touched by how much Dave and Dan and countless other people gave back,
I've got too much to learn like everyone here but If I can help I will try!
Hopefully I can keep a presence here, though I've got no jobs right now and may be forced to get a regular job If I cant work something out soon.


here's a old vid of me for anyone procrastinating..
