Hi! I'm new here. I joined because I want to learn how to do art work. How do I start?

Just sit in front of you keyboard, turn on the computer and the monitor, and just type away. That's basically how I started, and I'm sure how others start. Think of an idea and what you would want to do. It doesn't come automatically, and you may have to take a look at techniques and styles of other people, but eventually you'll get the hang of it. Try it, post what you do for others to see, and they'll help you with suggestions on how to make it better. That's it! Hope to see some of your artwork...

Bow And Arrow Scene
Author's Note:
I have come up with a really simple scene of a bow and arrow. I
would greatly appreciate it if someone could improve upon it, making it
more complex. I would do it myself, but I just can't seem to picture it
the way I want it. Thanks.
