Phoenex360's ~Beginnings~

[Phoenex360]

Hey, my name is Kylie, and as of now I'm 15 years old. ^^ I only really started drawing in 2006 so I've got a lot to learn! Any advice would be helpful. :)
I don't promise to update daily, but I'll try to keep up and post regularly. Hopefully if I work hard, one day I'll be as good as the rest of the artists here on CA. :D

Oh and most of my art will be on lined paper. Sorry I know it's annoying, but most of these I drew in school.

Sup Kylie! great start for your sketchbook :)
looks like you have shading down just make sure to keep studying anything that you seem looks cool to you. Study your favorite artists, life, photo and also do imagination drawings. You should get your hands on some loomis/Bridgemen books theres some free PDF ones you can find on the web and study them as much as you can if you want to get good at drawing characters.
looking forward to seeing your progression
have a good one

^^' been a while, but I haven't been drawing much and my scanner broke so I had to use my webcam to take pics of a few of the things that I did decide to scribble and show.

The first one is a birthday doodle for my friend. :) It's the most recent.

Second is a tribal style phoenix for another friend. She drew a rough version first then I redrew it as her personal trademark at her request.

Third and final is something I sketched over the summer during driver's ed. She's an interesting character that I'm thinking of expanding on.
