Welcome, Dear Traveller, to my part of the wood. I have always drawn, as a hobby. Only recently have I been experimenting, and creating serious art works, although poor they are, I'm proud of them!
I did GCSE art, but didn't continue at college, as my teacher hated me, so I got a poor grade :( Oh, well, I am still continuing, and One day I will show her........ But, for now, Please give me constructive criticism on how to improve, because I don't know how!
I am mostly inspired by vampire lore, and gothic art. Although you may notice that I have no vampire art. This is because I feel I can't do them enough justice. I Love Crows and Ravens, birds of prey (expecially Saker falcons), Hawaii, film, especially Tim Burton and '80's, magic, vampires, the sea, purple, black, candles, inscence, etc.
I have now got a placement at Wyverns, please visit this, and tell me what you think!
Constructive Criticism is always welcome!
I would do requests if I was good at art. But if you want me to e-mail me! I'll be more than happy!
Thankyou for coming to my gallery, and 'blessed be'

Yup that definately throws me off course, the fact that I drew cartoons before 'realist' things and still does (thats gonna be a problem when I take A2 art next year...) However this stuff seems cool and will take a closer look now xx | |
| 19 Jun 2004 |  A. Star Glover | Loading... My advice would be to give yourself lots of time on each piece. I don't know if you use 'guide skeletons' or not, but it might be a good idea to try them. Remember that you don't need to finish a picture all in one sitting--you can walk away from it for awhile and come back later. I don't know if you already do or not, but sometimes it helps to draw with your paper at an angle. If you sit in a chair and cradle the drawing book in one arm while using the other hand to draw, sometimes it comes out looking better than if you lay the book flat on a table. Well, that's my two cents. Just keep drawing all the time and you'll get really excellent at it. Claire M.E. Gibson replies: "YaY. Thankyou! I'll try this. I don't use guide skeletons, though was thinking of buying an anatomy book or something." | |
| 21 Jun 2004 |  Sarah Fogg | Loading... I love the werewolf, the shading is a little blocky but otherwise it's fantastic! You need to work on people a bit more, but you certainly have talent! Keep practicing, and show that art teacher who's the best! Claire M.E. Gibson replies: "lol. thanks. I'm not too good on shading, but I have been practising. Thankyou for your comment." | |
| 25 Jun 2004 |  Steph Salt | Loading... You too Claire, I didn't get on with my art teacher either Go for it learn from those of us that will help with good critiques and keep improving. Thats how I've impoved. | |
| 2 Jul 2004 |  Carrie 'Tiger's Eye' Johnson | Loading... Thanks for paying a visit to my page! I really like your work, it has a style to it that not many people draw in. All of your pieces that you have posted really have an other-worldly feel to them, and it makes them really unique. Keep up the great work!  Claire M.E. Gibson replies: "Oh, WoW. I never saw my art like that before. Thankyou! Glad you like my work. Thankyou for commenting." | |
| 19 Jul 2004 |  Nathan Nair | Loading... Don't be afraid to draw what you love. The only way to improve is to keep on drawing;, one day, you shall surely succeed (in doing them justice). So don't give up - start drawing those vampires! Claire M.E. Gibson replies: "YaY, Thankyou. I think I will..." | |
| 26 Jun 2005 |  GOGO | Loading... I love your work i think your the best artist.  Claire M.E. Gibson replies: "why do I get the feeling your being sarcastic?" | |
| 4 May 2008 |  Laura Michelle 'Celebanna' Billson | Loading... Heya! Haven’t heard from you in a while. Have you got any new artwork up? | |
