For all my life i have loved drawing, ever since i was very young i have just loved to scribble, and naturally, as i have aged i ahve changed my style for the better, but the thing is, no im of the age where i will soon have to look towards universities/colleges, i really want to get my style up to scratch, i dont want to be "good"...i want to be excellent...afterall, it is my dream to become a character designer...

The thing is, i have spoken to many good artists, and the 3 thigns i am always told are: 1. Study anatomy, which i am in the process of doing (not at this particular moment in time seeing as i am typing my jounral...but you egt the point ) 2. Do life drawings, becuase it will help achieve a sense of understanding when it coems to the body, and 3. choose 2 - 3 artists and work in their style, to give an understanding about how they do things...and the more variation...the less chance that my style will be like theirs...

Now these are all very helpful, and are helping me improve, but i am still never happy, and i am always striving to get better...so if anyone could suggest other ways to improve...or perhaps just add to what is already said...i would be most greatful!

But as far as a jorunal goes...this was more like an explanation...or introduction to myself...so to make it liek a journal...i will say:

Day 1:

My Half term begins today...as of today, i am going to draw every day of the half term, and even though i draw as often as i can, now i have no school for a week, this a the perfect opportunity to improve my drawing...so let the challenge begin!
