oh yeah.

my mentors:

Constructive Anatomy, George B. Bridgman

Dynamic Anatomy, Burne Hogarth

Drawing the Head and Figure, Jack Hamm

and most importantly:

The World.

be observant. there''s plenty of "sample source code" by just looking around and mimicking what things look like onto a piece of paper.

mmm, I love the idea of articles ''cause I love to help people, but I cant seem to see where to start.
I remember last year explaining to complete newbies how to make pretty pictures, even though they couldn''t draw, by using some simple as dirt methods (and few tricks hidden up my sleeves) in Photoshop.
Would that interest anyone ? "Doing nice pictures even though you can''t draw". Haven''t written anything, but I have been considering it, since I wanna become a lecturer anyway.

As for mentors, or artists I like, pffff I couldn''t remember them all ... maybe this would be a good thread ? Sources of inspiration ? Books, artists, etc ?

FAntasy edge : if you have really really been drawing for only 4 years, I think it''s pretty cool. Myself I started really considering doing art around 9, just at the same time I started computing, which explain I am a bit of a cross breed ... I consider programming more like a new form of art than engineering. Actually you''ll see me hang around with all the outcasts of computing, the wasters like me who like to have a life

I assume all of you guys know about the fabulous Elfwood ?

youpla :-P

i would love to see an article on any aspects at all of 2d sprite/character drawing, tile drawing, etc, for complete newbies like myself
i dont know how you people do it..
but i want to know

I would love to write an article regarding art but what would you have me write about? Im also thinking that few would read it as my writing is very difficult to understand on many not so isolated occasions.... Still, what would i write about?

You might want to make the images open in a new window as it is annoying to keep clicking back but your site is nice and your art deserves a look by many.

If somebody wrote an article, I''d read it. The art articles section is surprisingly sparse.
