This is a picture I drew for a friend of mine. I'm really proud of this pic, it turned out nicely (except for the smudges x_x). If any of you left handed artist out there have any tips on how to keep from smudging your art work, I would be most grateful!

Hmm don't really know what it is about this pic that i like so much. Maybe because of the fact that it is sober and tender at the same time... Anyway i really like it

11 Anna Leigh Symonds replies: "  Thank you! I was going for a quite and tender picture, though I was afriad I messed it up along the way. But I am happy the way it turned out! Thanx2 "

Beauteous!!!!! Lovely body lines and pose! the limp form of the girl is GREAT! despite your criticism on your guys he looks very nice!

16 Anna Leigh Symonds replies: "What can I say? I need a lot more practice on drawing guys. Thanx for the kind words12"

Oooo. Very nice. I really like the simplicity of this picture. I love how you only detailed the one wing, and i love the border! It adds a nice touch. 2 And I don't think that the smudging ruined this picture too much. Even us right handed people suffer from the smudges. I do have some tips though! 2 As you're drawing put a clean piece of paper under your hand, and that'll help. Or you can use like a clear sheet of paper so that you can see what's going on under your hand. Also, if you erase the smudges as they happen that seems to help too. Anyways, really nice picture. I like it! 2

You asked me to suggest which ones would be best coloured, I think this one would definatly look great coloured

2 Anna Leigh Symonds replies: "  Thank you, but I no longer own this picture. Having it colored is for my friend Carman to decide."

That's a beautiful pic, the way it extends out of the border is a great idea. As for smudging, I tried to start in the bottom right corner but that didn't work cos I don't plan, so I incorporate smudging into my shading. Hee hee

14 Anna Leigh Symonds replies: "You and me both! I'm so happy you like this picture, I'm still proud of it. Thank you for commenting!!"

hi, at the moment i am a gcse art student and i am currently taking an art exam (on a A3 sheet of paper) and my techer always told me if you are right handed draw from left to right (or the other way around) and if you are left handed draw from right to left (or the other way around again)

Nice pic I think it has secret love behind it! An Angel in love with a dyeing girl how sweet... Whatever. I like the pic.
