Displaying your artwork

[JK87]

I've recently been trying to improve my drawing skills and while looking around websites related to that subject, I noticed that many of the personal websites have small to medium-sized galleries of the artists' artwork online (hand drawn or otherwise) and I was wondering how many kirupaForum members have their own artwork displayed online =).

If you do, please post a link here so we can all have a look :) (if at all possible, please don't post DeviantArt links *shudder*).


Thanks,
JK.

Um Alex, I think JK87 wanted to see traditional hand drawn work, not digital work.

Edwin, you've got tons of great stuff, and thats just 1 gallery. awsome.

[JK87]

artbyfeng.com is amazing as well :). The artwork that is his is stunning :o. I hope I'll be able to draw with close to that skill level some day :beam:.

EG, I would prefer links to members' art galleries of hand-drawn art but if all they have is computer generated art, so be it :).

(I'm hardly artistically gifted - especially when it comes to doing things by hand).

Yeah Feng Zhu's work is amazing, he's my favorite pencil and ink artist right now. =)

*drools some more* Shame I don't live in California, aren't really old enough, and suck at drawing - otherwise I would definitely go to one or both of the classes he co-teaches regarding industrial design :).

*sigh* If I was any good at this kind of thing, I would probably love to do it as a job (concept design).

[eyeinfinitude]

Same here, I would kill to take one of his classes. :sigh:

Hand-drawn pencil and paper or hand drawn on a PC? :)

My stuff is all hand done on paper, then scanned in and traced, again by hand, so does that count? :) Anyway, link is http://www.nowingsnohalo.co.uk/gallery/gallery.htm

Woah, Edwin, is the arteest!

Also, just curious... how did you do that gallery.. that looks very nice. Mind if I reproduce something similar for my father's art gallery? (I dont want to be a biter) :beam:

Kit, it's fine. I've looked at your gallery countless times when trying to think of the shapes of human figures and some of your artwork is excellent:thumb:. vincetopia, that orchid one looks great; very stylish. 3d-iva, I look forward to seeing some of your sketches in the future :).

Thanks JK. :)

Reminds me actually, must update tonight, I've got a whole load more pics to post up there...

I'm waiting for you to put some of yours up on your site too. ;)

[JK87]

Lol that website of mine (JK87.com) hasn't been updated for about 2 months. I played around with a couple of other designs recently but couldn't bring myself to update it just yet.

I was actually toying with PHP about 2 minutes ago to make a simple gallery script but now that I think about it, it's a waste of time :). I haven't actually got anything worth showing the world yet but as soon I do, I'll make sure to upload it ;).

*goes back to reading "How to draw: Nursery School Level" j/k :P*

JK.

Now you've done it Kit - I took one of those other designs (nothing great but it does the job [no Flash involved]) and beat some PHP into it so that it became a functional website :). I've set up forwarding so that you guys can see it without having to go to a different URL (just go to good 'ole http://www.jk87.com).

All I have to do now is create a gallery for it and create some artwork worth displaying ;). Once I do, I'll make sure to post back and let y'all know.
