[a] Slightly less abstract art ^_~

[Jojee]

*pastes from LJ*

I drew these when I was 12 - 13. I could have been really good at art, but I stopped at it. It almost makes me want to pick up art again. Pastel drawings, the deer one is colored pencil. Pictures of pictures, so quality is bad and some of them are cut off, but... ^^ They're pretty good, for a kid. Some I made up, some I copied from other pictures.


















And I didn't just want old pictures, so I'll put two monkey pictures that I drew on the computer recently! I posted one of them here before

Very, very, nice!

Oh taht reminds me Claude Monet, my favourit artist!!!!! It is wonderful!

[Rini]

Monet was the first to come to my mind too, I love his work, and these too! Very warm, soft drawings. I can almost feel the atmosphere and smell the trees. Incredible. I like the second one, with the tree and the river, most. It's so .. warm. I feel like I want to wrap it around me like it was a warm blanket <3

That monkey stuff is a "tad" different, but they're also quite stunning. Feels like pop-art. And good pop-art for that matter. I like the "hopeful" one more - irony is the best humour there is ;)

Extremely good use of shading all round. Brilliant stuff.

You're a very talented artist

I love that one too, I have a thing for trees. Those are amazing.

The pastels are soooo good. And always love the monkeys. You should do more art! *nod*

[themagicroundabout]

you are an amazing artist. why did you stop

[Jojee]

Thank you ^^ I love impressionism.. Monet is definitely one of my favorite artists.

magicroundabout, I stopped because... I used to go to this class every week for around a year or two, and I produced one of those drawings every time I went (I ended up with a ton xD Unfortunately, the beginning ones were pretty bad ^^ But it showed that I had room for improvement and did improve). It was a two hour class, so it didn't take me forever to draw those but... once I stopped going to art class because I moved, I just sort of lost motivation. xD I need someone to whip me into shape and get me to do things...

[Yoruhoshi]

*gasps* Omigawd its sososososooo cool!!
I love them all!!

[nik0tine]

Wow... I had no idea that you were a talented individual, Jojo.

[black orb]

>>> You were a better artist when you was 12 years old?
Im confused now..

[Jojee]

Thanks ^^ And black orb, I dunno, maybe! Like I said, I stopped doing pastel drawings, but I should pick it up someday to see where I am. The monkey one were done solely on the computer, with my mouse, and they are a totally different style so I wouldn't really compare, though

[Rusty]

Oh Monkey you are so talented! My favourite is the drawing above the teapot drawing. Beautiful colours The Monkey drawings are so cute ^_^
