When people say they're not into art, I usually have cause to raise an eyebrow.

Sure, you might not be into art galleries (I'm certainly not), but almost everyone has areas of art they like - usually subject matter rather than techniques.
I'm sure most of you would be interested by a custom engraved rifle stock, which is certainly a form of art. Almost anyone will have at least one subject matter that they like - it's just a question of what that is.

There's a certain amount of similarity to the anthropic principle here.
The fact that the subject matter I draw appeals to some people on the forum is hardly coincidence - after all, the forum is mostly male and interested in guns and science. It's little surprise that my tastes in artistic subject matter (and thus what I draw) will overlap with those of others on here to some extent.

Also, art is simply more interesting when it's done by someone you (at least partially) know - which is something you could probably say of me to some extent.
I've got friends with artistic talents, and I would honestly rather look at their work than go and see an exhibition of any famous artist you could name - even though my mates' work isn't worth millions.

I think he just meant Art, his neighbour...


I consider all my projects art, eventough I'm crap at it...

I'm not just interested in the performance, but also the arty part of it.

Call it....Performance Art...

Don't let that get you down.. The worlds largest software manufacture has used cheezy stick people art for many years.

oh when i said stick people i meant no hands, no feet, and if your lucky a face and hair

[Ragnarok]

I still maintain that almost anyone can be taught to draw.

After all, I learnt... sort of.

[c11man]

not saying i couldnt be taught, i just havent been.

Not drawing I'm afraid (it's photography), but here's the latest from my deviantART account:

I do want to finish the drawing, but as I explain in my journal, there are issues (linked with the above photo) preventing it happening quickly:

Buet mate! Envious I am

[Ragnarok]

Well, it's good to hear people like it, as it took long enough to do. I started it over 2 months ago!

I realy like your art and have the same genre taste as you like sci-fi and action.
But what i would really like if you drew a picture with an air cannon in like HEAL or Copperhead Prime.

[Ragnarok]

Far too long in the making...
