The drawings show that you have potential to become a good artist. :3

I'd suggest copying art drawings that you like, I learned how to draw by copying petsite art by eye, exactly how it is. Aslong as you don't claim the artwork to be of your own design, then its fine. Then shading and anotomy will become natural to you after a while.

Ardor, copying isn't going to help you increase you're art skills. You won't become an artist, you'll become a photocopying machine. You should try to understand shapes and anatomy and sketch it out by yourself.

One thing I find that really helps was attempting to draw the subject in only gemetric shapes. Note that I'm still not a great artist and I too, lack fansy art programs.

Personally, I don't like the anatomy lacking legs or blocky heads,but you have the potential to be a good artist. Keep up the practice! I'd love to see you improve!

huh, thanks giaz. I can do alot better, I am hopefully getting a Digital drawing tablet for my birfday. I know it wont make me better, but i just really want one, I have been practicing with just my mouse, scetching cats and things. I am getting better. o 3o

-Thanks again.

I'd say if you find copying/tracing helps you in the early stages, then go for it. xP  It's your business deciding what helps you and what doesn't.  You're not hurting yourself by taking things more slowly, and sooner or later even the most hesitant artist will gain the confidence he/she needs to move into his/her own style. =)

But in your case, I'd say you definitely have potential. :3  Those drawings are all adorable, and you seem to have pretty good control of your pencil.  Good enough, in fact, that I would love to see you try something a bit more complicated than simplified chibi critters.  Something with joints and bones and contours.  You could totally do it; you've got the skills. =D 

Tamia; Thanks so much. I will do that, and when I do. I will put it here. I appreciate your input.

-Thanks,

Sal :3
