Do any of you still have some of the very first artwork you ever did as a little kid?
What did you like to make or draw?
If you have a pic, post it!The first memorable art lesson I learned all on my own was…that a horses’ body shape looks kind of like a peanut with it’s shell. At 7-8 yrs it was a profound revelation for me. I don’t have any of my earliest artwork, but I think my mom has some of it though!

Horse’s backs look like canned pears. The rear end . From the top.

SO TRUE! The peanut with shell is only noticeable in the profile view of a horse’s body. I had thought poads looked like pears from above, but on reflection I think they look more like mangoes.

https://www.redbubble.com/people/prezaurian?ref=artist_title_nameI started drawing horses in Grade School as early as I can remember. Mostly in profile, and facing left as well. Maybe because I’m right handed? I used to draw them all the time and all over my school notes and notebooks.
In High School, I started doing more fantasy style drawings like ‘Demon’ flylng horses and unicorns, and some dragons and dinosaurs. I do still have some linoleum block carvings I did in Fabrics class – my favorite one was a flying unicorn I did in 1978 when I was a Junior. I’ll post a photo soon when I get back in town next week. Lots of good memories.

*** Come visit me on deviantArt at http://ela-hara.deviantart.comI’ve been sorting through my things lately and have run into some old artwork, if I run into anymore I’ll take some photos
I’m sure my mom has some of my really early stuff someplace! LolAll my really old art is at our lake lot cabin. Occasionally I look through it and snigger uncontrollably; it’s theraputic.

Excellent!
I remember drawing dragons and writing short stories back in 1988, which is what started the madness! Then I got into Piers Anthony’s work, and mom bought my first Windstone Editions dragon in the early 90s….I have some stuff here, that I would have to dig out…but the majority of stuff from my childhood is burried deep in mom’s basement, in an unmarked box. I remember being 11 years old, and sitting in the back yard, in a lawn chair, with a charcoal pencil and a pad of paper….eventually, all my dragons started to look alike, lol…but what do you want!? I was 11, hee!hee!!

I used to draw a lot when I was young as well. I was into Wildlife, my favorite artist was Robert Bateman… I still love his stuff. I drew ducks, lots of them, but didnt keep any
I also drew white-tailed deer a lot, and I went through my horses and unicorns phase also. Mine always faced right though, and Im right-handed. I cant imagine drawing one facing left !?I also drew my share of skulls and creepy things
I do have some of those lying around here somewhere, if I ever get a chance to post them up I will I do miss drawing, but I find I have lost the skill…. I guess its true when they say if you don’t use it, you’ll loose it, lol !Most of mine faced left too, I think its a familiarity with repetition as well as your dominant hand. If I am not using a reference, I still seem more inclined to draw to the left, although you so a lot more head on work from me though.

Email me for current prices! awier(@)weaselsoneasels.comI don’t believe that I was ever inclined to draw things facing in a certain direction. I was inspired by animated movies, so I was always trying to draw things in action. For ages I couldn’t draw a stationary pose. A horse just standing still? Forget it! That was a long time ago though – any drawing vices like that which I still had at the end of highschool were destroyed in university. I probably sound like a stuck record, but with art practice makes perfect. You must keep at it if you want to improve or even retain your skill.
Art’s fun, but it requires discipline! Check out my finished artwork at http://falcolf.deviantart.com/ and my sketch/studio blog at http://rosannapbrost.tumblr.com/
Excellent!
