Do you like to draw? What is your favorite thing/s to sketch?

Hi Saki. For me, nature and landscapes are also a favorite to draw or paint. I find it a challenge to make them "look right," but in art, impressionism also works for me.

Hi Cookie. The artistic talent does tend to run in families. I'd love to see your work. I do get e-mails that you send. I am at aol.com, same name that I use here.:)

Karen

Hello Ann. Your drawing does provide a service, though lol. Flowers are fun to draw...I still love doing them. And yes, they make an excellent subject.

Karen

have you tried drawing using the computer? i think it will be fun too.

Hi Ann. Please pardon the late response. I somehow missed your question. Yes, I have done drawings on the computer, and you're right...it is a lot of fun! Have you tried it?

Karen

i have, but it makes me depressed especially if i compare it with my granddaughter's drawings. my drawing looks very elementary.

Ann, some of the most simple of sketches are the most interesting or beautiful:)

Hello Win...I do think the drawing and such adds much joy to the life of those who do it. Someday soon, I will upload some of my work to a site, and share some of it on here in photos, as well.

Hi Deepak. I think any kind of drawing is a fun way to pass time or express oneself. It only matters that we love it. Yes, faces are a fun challenge.:)

Karen

Yes, drawing funny faces is great fun........LOL!

Funny faces like this one? LOL

Hello Kotee...I love to draw faces, too, of all kinds. It is fun to experiment...to see how real or how odd or different we can make them look.

Thank you for sharing your preference.

Karen

Hello Dephie. You're right, this kind of pencil drawing can be such fun...so many things to do with facial expressions. I appreciate you sharing your tastes in art.

Karen

hi elic...horses are a challenge, with all their grace, and getting the "muscles" to look just right. I do best to draw the heads, for I have trouble getting the body proportions correct.

karen

I will agree that I mostly do the heads as well - and I'm a very minimal draw-er, I don't feel the need to get every line in, I just draw the "hint" of the stuff

The "hint" or impression of a thing is sometimes all that is needed to make an excellent and interesting drawing:)

Karen

hello happy...you love variety then, as do I. my daughter and i have always loved to draw trees and experiment with the shapes and shadings. she makes them with such beautiful detail. i think i will try your idea of adding life to rigid objects. sounds like a fun challenge!

Karen

hello rss. you are right when saying a sketch can help us see and work out problems with certain projects. i use this a lot to plan a rooms furnishings, etc. like you, i always have a sketchbook with me to capture things of interest wherever i go. keep drawing
