I used to hate drawing hands. What I did was create drawings that had BOTH hands in them. You can either avoid drawing them and never get better or you can force yourself to confront them and become competent drawing them Sit down for 15 minutes each day and draw nothing by feet. Start out with quick 10 second sketches and then work up to doing a 5 minute sketch. That's waht we used to do in art school. That's how you get better at doing them. When I see people that purposely hide feet or hands it bums me out. 719 Post 2008-02-03T01:08:36-05:00 26294 1661 2008-02-03T01:08:36-05:00 <blockquote><cite>nickmontoya said:</cite> Michael Sieben is probably my fave right now.</blockquote> i've been digging on michael sieben for a few years now. reall rad stuff.... 719 Post 2008-02-04T01:11:30-05:00 26635 1638 2008-02-04T01:11:30-05:00 it sucks that the board company he did all the graphics for just went under though... i loved his designs 719 Post 2008-02-04T01:14:26-05:00 26637 922 2008-02-04T01:14:39-05:00 <blockquote><cite>sittingduck said:</cite> Jhonen Vasquez Roman Dirge Todd Mcfarlane Joe Mad Burne Hogarth -- probably my all time fav.
