attempt

There I did it! This was my first attempt.

I’m bad at hair yet I chose to attempt curls..oh the irony. What are your thoughts or critique? My main focus was shading and eyes, but feel free to leave your thoughts on this as a whole

The lord of winter has had many wives throughout his life and many half god children. Wren and Wilder are two of them. Twins who do mischief in an attempt to get some attention from their distant father.

Another attempt to paint my cat, Irida.

First attempt at the prompts

The attempt to rehydrate the carrots didn't work.

An attempt at people. This is Holy Week for some of us. Yesterday was Palm Sunday, and we watched mass on our church's new YouTube channel. The Gospel reading was very long, so everyone in the frame was standing still for a good while. I was really looking forward to our spring class People in the Park because I haven't done much figure work. It was postponed of course, so your constructive criticism is welcome.

My first real attempt on Procreate app. I’ve never drawn digitally before. Very easy to use. Whatcha think?

Today's attempt at something that looks more "traditional" using Rebelle 3.

Another attempt at doodling

My son has been asking me to draw him, so I attempted it during naptime. He still moved every 10 min, though!

This is my attempt to draw my cat. It looks nothing like her but at least it looks like a cat.

Three attempts at drawing a mouthwatering cocktail using mainly 4 colors (and a little black)

Still don’t know how to use an outlet and still have no opposable thumbs...

Hello. I am a total beginner when it comes to artwork. This is my very first attempt at creating a road going down an autumn forest with colored pencils. I know I'm not the best artist but I hope to learn more.

Another attempt at people. Sunset Maundy Thursday dinner at Ocean Beach. My son added our beach wagon.

Hey everyone, sorry for such a long hiatus! The main reason is that I haven't been drawing so I had nothing to post. I also went through a name change, from BurningCinders to Umbra! For this piece, I played around with some new brushes and attempted to play with fog for the first time.

I took a few moments out of my day to attempt to use most of the coloring tools in Krita whilst drawing a rough character design.

First time attempting something with colored pencils, I have a lot of improvement in my future.

Will it always be like this? Whenever he tries to love me, will it be just an attempt? This feeling is what I try to represent with the drawing, the tallest and most beautiful flowers are the negative thoughts towards my body and my person; the withered ones are the positive ones, which drown before the greatness and strength of the others.

Most likely the only attempt you'll see me do with real life people portraits.

Hi! I drew this in January and forgot to upload it heh-. Anyways, I attempted to draw M3GAN in my style! I hope you guys like it :)!

I have been attempting for some time to accomplish the 100 heads challenge, its been a slow process but my goal is 4 poses from 25 characters from some of my favorite movies and t.v. Series. Ive enjoyed this project so far and have noticed its pushed me to work on some much needed improvement on drawing heads in general.

"Seed, Soil, and TLC." My first attempt at scratchboard.

I’m not sure who the artist was who made the original digital version, but I liked the picture and decided I would give it a go. By no means did I come up with the pose or idea I just loved the original and this is my best attempt to do it justice.

This figure explores how the relentless pursuit of monetary gain and digital distraction stifles genuine attention and moral listening. * Visual Focus: The mask is equipped with a headphone covering a single ear. The headphone wire is visibly broken, frayed, and cut short, suggesting a deliberate disconnect or a failed attempt at communication. A small coin dangles conspicuously from the corner of the figure's mouth. * Symbolism: * The Headphones: Represent modern distraction and the ability to selectively "tune out" inconvenient truths or moral calls. The broken, frayed wire reinforces the idea of a failed connection to the real world. * The Coin in the Mouth: Serves as a powerful, visceral metaphor for being "consumed by monetary means." It connects the act of speaking/listening to the theme of greed, suggesting that the voice and ear are functionally "plugged" or corrupted by the all-consuming focus on wealth. The refusal to hear moral guidance is dictated by the pursuit of money.

I've been working on this since mid September. This is my first attempt at using an engraver to help with the fur texture.

This time I managed to get the result I had planned. I made a second attempt at drawing a magic tree. There is much more detail in this illustration. I'm satisfied. It was a great opportunity to develop my drawing skills.

I'm starting a new art challenge #whimsicalByMamaminia Art challenges are an excellent way to stay motivated. They are great for creating consistently in one style. I fell in love with gouache paintings with a whimsy touch when I discovered Ruth Wilshaw. It's my first attempt at creating an illustration with a whimsical accent

Meet Grumpy Bunny. First attempts with micron pens.
