A hedgehog like my Dexter would be cute too.  But possibly hard to do? Cause of the spikes?

Idk.  Idk much about it.

My cousins pretty good at that stuff.

I feel like you've probably already made some mushrooms?


I just gave  Dexter a bath. After  I wrap him  in this towel pouch. It's got this little hedgehog with mushrooms on it. That's what made me think a hedgehog would look cute.




My cousin made this for me.  She's pretty groovy.  Like you!

I noticed i left out a  few.

"Butterfly's in space. On a brick wall"







All of those paintings would look better with this new blacklight I just used on those butterfly's.

3 more

What kind of supplies do you need for a nice beginner kit to do some killer art like that??

My wifey always talks about drawing again but never gets back to doing it, and I wanna gift her some things this Christmas.

I really dig that one on top of the others, definitely my type of vibe :loveheart:

Oh dude. Thats a great idea.  I really like it. For sure i can help you out with a small list of things.    Art supplies can be expesinvive.  But a small little starter pack of some essentials wouldn't be too bad.  Im out helping my mom get to a clinic because shes sick.  When I get home I'll put a list together for you.

And then your best option if available for you. would be to take it to a Hobby Lobby or Michaels and do some in person shopping for the supplies.

Speaking off drawing, I'm not great at freehand, but a few years ago I got into geometry because there a framework to follow.

Here's one I put together using a compass and a ruler. I was trying to incorporate different shapes into a cohesive design.

Picture is edited to increase contrast and minimize all the erased lines :lol:

Hey cubetheory. I'm getting that list put together for you right now. Sorry it's taking so long. my mom ended up having pneumonia.

I forgot that I didn't even think to ask whether you're inside the us or outside the US before I recommended Hobby Lobby/ Michael's. (I personally prefer Hobby Lobby)




@dala the Geo drawing is cool.

I'll tell you what.

I had to do some of that for a few of those mandala style drawings I did and that shit makes my brain hurt.

That takes some real Focus.. the cool thing about it though is it having that intense focus and sticking through with it. actually helps your artistic skills.

Long explanation incoming.......



It helps turn off your left brain and turn on solely your right side which is your artistic side and then you can unleash creativity..


My art teacher used to have us through an exercise before we started drawing or painting or anything.

you have to get a piece of paper and a pencil and try to shade in as much of the paper as you possibly can. but only drawing a single line at a time.

You start at the top of the paper left side and draw a line all the way across the other side then lift the pencil go directly under that line and do it again over and over and over until you make it about halfway through the page..

While this is happening your left brain will constantly be trying to make you stop. It'll tell you things like this is boring.

I can't take this. I wanna stop. My hand hurts etc.  It'll even make you stop and do things like use the bathroom or fiddle with your pencil Etc anything to keep you distracted and stopped from actually finishing the task..

However if you continue and ignore all of those signals there comes a point in time where you no longer pay attention to them. your left brain shuts off and your right(the side in control of creativity) brain takes over..

from this point on you inherently see better, imagine better, draw better and focus on what you're doing better.. and you stop feeling those feelings of not wanting to do it anymore.

you just get lost in what you're doing and many hours later you've created lots of really cool things..

I learned that when I was in high school and I still practice it to this day. It really does work.


Sorry this has gotten so long.


Another great drawing tip is always draw what you see and not what you've learned something is supposed to be. If you're drawing an apple you don't draw a heart shape with the leaf.

People draw that because that's what we saw when we were kids learning the alphabet in school. But if you actually look at an apple and draw  it. In looks nothing  like that.


Your eyes should never be on the paper for too long when you're actually doing the drawing. They should be on the paper off the paper on the paper off the paper constantly as you look and draw exactly what you see.



Srry this was so long.  I get excited about this stuff and just can't hold it in :lol:

No prob. and thank you.


* Thick spiral sketch pad.

(If just for pencils and dry media.

70-75lb paper weight is good.)

I like the 100lb weight multi media style  tho because its can take markers and gel pens and and other wet media as well.)




* A pack of graphite drawing pencils
(2H-8B)

* mechanical pencils/ extra lead
( for this cheap ones are okay. But decent auto drafting ones aren't expensive. And it makes a big difference. I prefer  .5 to .7 size lead)

* white eraser/kneaded eraser

* a good pencil shapener.
(You can get these things together in packs)

I like having a separate full set of graphite pencils tho. Cheap is fine to start.







* Maybe some color pencils

* water-based markers



If you're looking to get into painting.

* some cheaps multi packs of various size canvas as.

* cheap paint brushes(way to get more expensive things when she is ready and knows more of what she wants and needs)

* acrylic paint.
(look for it in packs or cases that come with more. Don't buy singles. Also check out the Children's Art/school/activity aisle.
sometimes they have packs that have multiple colors of bigger bottles for cheap.)

In my opinion just stick with acrylic to start. Branchbout from there.


* not necessary but a cheap light board can be helpful.








Hope this helps. 


Oh Walmart has some of the stuff too.

Yo hippie, that line exercise is cool!

I'm gonna call it The Brain Wrangler :awesomenod:

Might have to adapt it for guitar. I often play what I think I'm "supposed" to play, but the really inspired stuff comes when I get into a flow state with no expectations, just pure exploration.

Great tip :hatsoff:

Happy to help :sunny:

I like to divide one page into  2 in columns. work on one column at a time it's easier that way.  And you just work your way down.

Ex.

don't cheat try to make sure you're always touching the line above so that there's no gaps. Within minutes you'll be wanting to stop. Usually it takes about 20 or so minutes to get to where you're totally right brain and in the flow.

Then you can stop and carry on with whatever creative activity you feel like.

I could definitely see how other exercises following the same concept could be constructed..

Ohhh thats really cool.

And i noticed that she liked to do some watercolors.

I wasn't sure about that. When I suggested acrylic.  Sometimes people don't get into watercolor until they've already been into painting for a little bit.

But if she does like watercolor definitely put a pack of watercolors and a watercolor sketch pad.  On your list.

Gouache is also a good sort of inbetween if she is into both acrylic and watercolor; it has the rework-ability of watercolor but an opaqueness closer to acrylic.
