Pencil Drawings II

Here are some of my pencil drawings.  It was the first time after my childhood that I used color pencils even if i did not attempt any shading technique with colors. I had fun doing my favorite Ariel mermaid drawings.

  22. Dearest Ruby,
    An artist always had their eyes on beauty. To be honest the drawings above are rather childish but I can see your attention into detail which is a promising trait. I also admire your passion...keep it up and I know you're in the right path.

  23. Fher, thanks for your comment. No way am I an artist. I'm just an amateur with no training or practice, who has a passion for drawing things i find fascinating and fun. Cheers!
