FAQ

:bulletgreen:Is that a drawing?

Yes, all the stuff in my gallery that's submitted in the 'drawings' are...well, drawings. :bucktooth: I'm surprised how often I'm being asked this question and I'm very flattered. And special thanks goes to all those people who have added my drawings to their photography collections. :lol:

:bulletpink:What do you use for drawing?

All my materials are listed in the 'artist's comments'. I use mechanical pencils, regular pencils, kneadable eraser, eraser stick, regular eraser, blending stumps, cotton buds, tissue (sometimes toilet paper, lol), ruler. Sometimes I also use coloured pencils and some acrylic paint to add highlights to my drawings.

:bulletgreen:How long does it take for you to draw something?

People always ask me that and honestly, I have no idea. I don't take time while I'm drawing. Plus, my drawing process includes watching telly, replying comments on dA, eating, whatever. I just cannot sit down and do one thing for hours. :laughing: All I can say is that it takes me about 2 evenings to finish a smaller drawing and bigger projects may even take me a week. But that all depends on my mood, sometimes I draw all day, some mornings it's really hard for me to pick up a pencil. :shrug:

:bulletpink:There's a grid on your WIP, but it's not on the finished drawing! Where did it go? :ohnoes:

You people surprise me. :lmao: I draw it. With a pencil. And then I erase it as I go along. :XD:

:bulletgreen:Can you teach me to draw?

No. But you can do it yourself. :#1: Everything I know, I learned from tutorials. There is a lovely collection of all kinds of tuts I've found on dA in my favourites section, so you might want to check that out. I don't feel like making my own tutorials, because it seems to me that everything has been said already in other tuts, so why bother? While going through tuts, pay attention to shading techniques, because that's all you need. Honestly. Drawing is all about shadows and highlights. :nod:

:bulletpink:I really like Michael Jackson/Robert Pattinson/Miley Cyrus/Zac Efron/random starlet. Please draw them? For me? *puppy eyes*

Sorry, no requests. I only draw stuff I like. :shrug:

:bulletgreen:Very well then. I'll pay you. Do you take commissions? Or how about an art trade?

Again, no. Sorry. I find it hard to draw something I'm not interested in, things usually get screwed up. Plus, I don't have a credit card, so yeah, can't really take international commissions. :no:

:bulletpink:Can I use your drawing for my website/blog/avatar/whatnot?

Well, ask me, it depends on what you would like to do with it, but if you give me credit, then everything should be okay. But ask me, please. I don't like people using my stuff without permission. :(

deviantID

=SheldonSands is a member of a species of bipedal primates in the family Hominidae (taxonomically Homo sapiens—Latin: "wise human" or "knowing human"). She is a shy 170 cm tall creature and can be found in Estonia. Despite being called a "wise human", =SheldonSands is deeply convinced that she does not know much and therefore she's always ready to absorb information from all kinds of books. In addition to books, zoologists have also found traces of graphite and some crumpled paper near her habitat and this gives us reason to speculate that =SheldonSands is also a highly artistic creature. When she's not drawing, =SheldonSands is probably sleeping, watching telly or complaining about the amount of homework. =SheldonSands is obsessed with doctors and hopes to become a pirate some day.
