Can you draw?

I can do convincing doodles but I'm a pretty crap artist to be honest. How about you?

By the way, check this out. It's utterly amazing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nu27-8x6yxw

I confess it's good - but's its not painting is it.

In answer to the first question. Shite.

I'd love to be able to draw, but I'm pretty crap. I draw little comic strips, but the 'art' is basic and ropey in the extreme! There was apoint when I was around eleven that I used to think I'd like to be a cartonist, but then quickly realised that my drawing 'skills' were never going to be good enough.

Oh, I drew my little skull man to the left there; that's about as good as it gets!

:D Were you on acid at the time?

That's crazy. Not once did he check his emails or Facebook.

I like to think I can draw, been doing it ever since I can remember. But don't keep the practice up like I should. So I'm probably not that great.

I used to do cartoons, but discovered how effective it was to try life-like but always got the feeling it was a hollow thing to draw realistic replicas (I'm such a tortured artist!). I do love imaginative stuff, but I don't know how good I am at any other style, not really been confident enough to try.

Not as good as I'd like to be.

Not got much of any drawings as such online.

Did this probably about 20 years ago using dip pen/brush & ink.

Everyone is going to be reluctant to post examples now you've posted that link, Henman.

I mean, I really wanted to post a photo of my attempt at drawing a massive back-piece tattoo on my girlfriend. (Using an eyeliner pen)

Well, that's not going to happen now, is it?

Heavily cropped, for obvious, naughty reasons.

That's brilliant, Jules!! :D

Yes, it's bloody fantastic. Where do you start with something like that?

No way near Random's level, but here's what happens when I get bored:

This was a blank wall at the printers I used to work at, it never occurred to me they wouldn't want it. They didn't sack me though, which was nice. :D
