Where did my artistic creativity began?

I always liked drawing since when I was very young age until this day. I was inspired to draw cars & other sources of art using pen, colour pencils, greyleds and greyons when I was young.

In 2009, I decided to take my artistic side more seriously. One of my favourite quotes that I stuck by was: "Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Design is knowing which ones to keep"- Scott Adams

My inspirations comes from:

1- Sports he plays
2- Sports he likes to watch.
3- Movies (Comedy, thriller and action).
4- Foods and drinks.
5- Favourite colours
6- Inspirational quotes and sayings.
7- Music

And much more.

Boat on the beach

Here is another landscape painting. I started this painting about 2-3 months ago. The most challenging part of this painting was the sky, sun and sea reflections. Other than it was straight forward. The sea part of this painting was the most trickiest part to paint because it contains consistency, blending and the effects of the waves. I started with basic colours then I build the colours up to realistic style.

Overall I am happy with the end result of the painting.

Photography Goals of 2011

My photography goals are to improve photo techniques and find my own style of photography. When I took some photos in the past, some of them came out really good. I hope my photography skills will improve.
