    Depending on what I'm drawing, I learned how to draw anime-style from watching a LOT of animes and mangas. I learned sketching daily-life stuff (such as a vase or something) from my own fleshy eyes and perspective. Lots of techiques I learned from other people.

    Had many friends who were artist. Plus I had some natural ability.

    If I can draw, it's only from practice and innate ability.

    I usually just look at objects or drawings and reproduce them almost exactly, I wish that I could just draw things from my mind.... although I probably can but I don't have faith in myself :(:(
    I sort of learned how to draw from watching my siblings, and maybe my relation to the late Rembrandt helps a bit ^^

    I still haven't learned! I cheat!

    The secret to a successful stick figure is a ruler! Using this marvelous tool, I can create staright legs and arms!

    BakaMattSu, now if only he could master the compass for those circular heads...

    This is how she leant to draw

    My dad and dad's uncle are great artists :)! A lot ppl in our family have artistics talents. I guess it's hereditary throughout the family. I don't really know about Yuna, but I was first encourage to develop this talent by kindergarden and later on by my elementary art Teacher. Sadly I don't take art, but still I enjoy drawing, CGing, hunting for fanart and developing styles. I hope I'm still improving..
    Anyways I guess no one is really interested in the rest...
