# About me
I'm just a guy. Deep thinker at times, artistic at other times. I mainly consider myself to be friendly and I try being as down to earth as possible. I have no drawing education background, but I like drawing on my free time.I like drawing intriguing images. I try my best to stay away from cliche art (wolves, female celebrities, flowers, sonic stuff, an eye, or horny hybrids?).
So stick around and watch me improve and bring new material and stuff. Or don't stick around and die lol.

thanks for the fav man and the watch. I appreciate it bro! I think you should keep your drawing up, it has a lot of potential and could really evolve into something great!

One piece of advice i would have for you is to darken up the dark shadows in your pictures. Take the extra initiative to create more depth by using a wider variety of shades of black and white. If you're trying to make something the focal point, make sure to have a good contrast of shades, and your eye will naturally go to the conflicting black and whites.
Take for instance your superhero picture. Your eyes go to what? They go to the hair and eyes of the superheroes because those are the darkest features of the whole drawing and they are against a white background essentially. If you were to darken up the shadows on the drawing across the heroes entire bodies, your eye would focus not just on the head of the figures, but upon the whole figure itself. And then, the darkness would help separate the figures from the background and make your pockets of negative space more interesting

I get what you mean. The lion and the heroes were both done with a regular and a mechanical pencil. I did the kid and Poseidon with a graphite scale of pencils. I'm not sure if that's exactly what you mean though but thanks for the tip

yeah regular and mechanical pencils dont provide the range of shading you need to really get your eye interested in the contrasts. i just use mechanical pencil when im not quite sure on the idea i have for my drawing, so i can erase, but other than that i strictly work in pen and colored pencil
