Mind to Hand Inspiration

One of the things that inspired me more than anything well before I even started talking pictures was drawing. Taking things that I saw and trying to recreate them my drawing them, which for me is the exact same thing I do now with photographs. I was never the most amazing artist, and feel I can much better relate what I see through photographs but when you draw all the time you get better and better. These are some of my favorite drawings.

The things I really loved to draw were people, hands, and other body parts. I draw in a semi realistic style. Now when I go back to look at my drawings, I feel inspired to create photographs from them. Also to sit down and draw again. I also find other people's drawings very inspiring, because I am in awe of how talented some people are with just there hands, a pencil and a piece of paper. I'm always especially impressed by other peoples abilities to recreate hair.

I found this link on how to draw hair in pencil, because it is the one thing in drawing I find very challenging. http://www.elfwood.com/farp/theart/maeryhair/maeryhair.html. They make it look much easier than it actually is.
