My self portrait by Animaker131

My self portrait

Description

I finally got around to drawing a portrait of myself. I couldn't really picture doing it any other way than with my first love, my guitar. ^^ I had actually planned to become a musician before I found the love of drawing & Anime. ^v^ Hope you like it!

I adore her passionate hug with the guitar! Looks like the real cultural music lady!

This . . . is . . . AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!! I'd so draw a self portrait of me but I lack the skill to do it (actually I'm afraid to do it) I love this!!!!!!

Thank you! Yes, self portraits are probably the hardest since we are always most critical of ourselves. CX At least that's how it is for me. XD Glad you like it!

Wow that's you cool!!!^_^

Animaker131 on February 19, 2009, 3:50:08 AM

Tee hee, yep! that's me! Probably way off the mark as far as accuracy goes, but it's the way I like to see myself. ^v^ Thanks for commenting! ^v^

That's so cool! Your step dad having tons of guitars like that?!!! (becoming envyous... very Unusual XD) & No way! you want a bass Guitar?! XD that's my second favorite instrument to play! I've got an Ibanez bass guitar, & I can play a little bit (I really like Jazz, rock, & slap/pop), but I find I do better on Guitar. I actually haven't played bass for a while, with all the drawing & all, but I have been thinking of picking it up again. What kind of style do you like the best?
& yes, this how my older guitar looks. I'm glad you like it! It's a Jasmine Takamine. I have a newer Takamine, with a cut away neck that's an accoustic electric. Much nicer! But I just had to draw my old Jasmine, We've been through a lot together, so I owed it to her. ^v^

Thanks! & BUUUMMMMER! Broken strings are such a pain. let me guess, it was the high string right? Those always like to break. XD at least they do on me. & restringing them is just as big a problem. CX Hope you can get it fixed! No guitar to play is one of the saddest things I can think of. Next to having a sketch pad with no pencil. XD Thanks for the comment! ^v^

Thanks for the comment! & cool! you have a guitar? Is it an accoustic or electric? either way, that's awesome!! Love to hear what you play. ^v^ Thanks again!

SilverGirl13 on January 23, 2009, 7:26:43 AM

definately accoustic..... but my stepdad has alot of guitars... including an electric.

(But what I really want now... is a bass guitar) don't tell anyone LOL^^*

By the way, is that what your guitar really looks like, if so... it's really good looking^^*
