Some Old Drawings from Pete Da Vinci -ROFL!

I was not born with natural talent in art but I love to draw. It took me a while and some practice before I could come out with a decent drawing. I found some of these old drawings from my school days. I found that it was very challenging to draw portraits so I tried it out using dark 2B pencils. Art is really a funny and mind boggling hobby. Sometimes I could sit for hours and could not produce a single decent piece but sometimes I could do it within minutes. I guess this is what they called inspiration. Therefore you might find famous artist like Leonardo Da Vinci, an Italian born in 1452 to have funny characters. Leonardo was not only an artist but was also an inventor, an architect, a musician, a sculptor, a scientist and a mathematician. His most famous paintings were of course the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper. Part of the papers have been destroyed and eaten by silverfish, so I better get them digitized before it is too late. Can you guess who they are ? I have forgotten who she was already,

This is one of the famous Hong Kong actress. Can guess who she is?

Can't remember, who is this already. LOL!

Can't remember who is this either. Maybe is my classmate. LOL!

    I would say you were born with some natural talent, these are such good drawings, seriously. Sorry I'm not familiar with too many Hong Kong actresses.

    Pete, I like the first one the most. Not bad. I can't draw like that. I took art lessons when I was a child. But never made anything out of it. Not even as a hobby. Da Vinci is a master of all trades.

    Hi Pete La Itchy - what are the things that you can't do would be easier to name 'em. You can cook, dance, sing, and now you can even draw Maggie Lisa? Learned from a lateral thinking class that if we can't draw well better to turn the picture upside down. Why? Becoz of our conditioned mind that the hands, legs, nose or eyes must be in proportion bla bla and we are always in conflict. But if we draw the pix terbalik (upside down) we just draw without 'questioning' ourselves. Try it out!

    Wow! You do have talent in drawing! Some of the faces look familiar. Either I don't really know who they are, or you are not drawing the faces accurately. Haha!

    Foongpc : Aiyo, already more than 20 years I drew this liao, the girls now should be very old already, maybe that's why you will not be able to recognise them, ha ha ha!

    Tching : I guess art covers quite a big aspect and techniques. It will some time and practice to master them!
