Side profile is easier for sure, 18 minutes is too long. And doing this without taking measurements is more difficult than I imagined. People who can just draw in proportions right away amaze me.

I have two cute frog statues (figurines?). This one is more difficult to draw, I feel like I can't quite get it right. Also, I have trouble thinking of things to draw, so any suggestions are welcome! :))
And thanks you for the nice things said about my first frog!!
I'd like to be able to get to this fidelity in 10 minutes or so. I have a lot of work to do to get there.

I spent two hours on this. The longest I have ever drawn in one session. This is progress. My doodles are getting more detailed. I am on the road to forming a more concrete style.
BTW, I don't just make doodles. They are just the abstract side of my work. I draw animals, robots, aliens, creatures and skull art as well. Doodles give me freedom, peace and serve as drawing practice for use in more concrete styles of my art to be applied to the more realistic of my art forms.
I appreciate all who enjoy my work. I intend to sell certain pieces one day on RedBubble, but until I do, they are just for show. Enjoy.
One of my art goals is to draw a good likeness of someone live in ~10 minutes. My current workflow takes hours to get there with lots of measuring and re-measuring. This is me trying to draw on the fly with no measuring. ~15 minutes.
Feedback?

Started drawing again for the first time in years. I've never been good in drawing from memory, so I decided on this little guy..
Stuck inside a spacesuit, with no person to help left on the world to which it returned.
Learning quite well. I am happy with this result today. This is the beginning of something swell.
Clearly a genre that needs more exploitation. Vampires Beyond the Thunder Dome! I love the movies and the one video game.
Wanted to end the series with a bang. What do you think?

In this vampire series I need to do at least one painting that really showcases the teeth. This is my attempt. How did I do?

Currently stuck in a jamaïcain resort, can't go home due to an air transporter union strike. 6 more days in obscene luxury. We are now resorting to colurful drinks with at least 6 ingredients to wait for the next barely informative email. However our survival skills are now razor sharp. We eat as a pack , m'y wife Gets the toasts and fruits while i ordre the omelets. Get the tonic at thé bar, not thé buffet. I dont need a Wilson ball, to keep me company m'y teenagers are juste as good at silently listening.
My first time painting on a canvas in over a decade, and my first time using painters tape to get crisper lines. I think it came out decently lol
Acrylic paint on canvas. Sea green background with two green cut gem patterns.
This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨
Please visit https://lemmy.world/c/artmarket as well! This is a community for artists to post their portfolios and announce availability to take commissions, as well as get visibility for Ko-fi, Patreon, and other funding for art activities.
Rules
AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).
NSFW Policy: Nudity and suggestive content has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity or suggestive content, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity or suggestive content that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude or suggestive subject matter. If you aren't sure if your work is NSFW or not, just ask yourself, "Could I look at this at a typical office job and not get into trouble?" If you're still not sure after that, you should probably mark it as NSFW just to be on the safe side.
Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.
Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.
