What is something you can't draw not matter how hard you try???

For me it's hands and noses Mad and I've been told many times that they are one of the easiest things to draw, but I just can't do it Twisted Evil

Ok, I'll admit it - it's ears.

I can't believe no one else has trouble drawing something. C'mon everyone let it out - it feels good.

I'd like to draw everything better....
I know that sounds like a cop out answer but its true...
I do struggle with some figure drawing, not that i'm too worried about that, i don't need to worry about that for now.
I think if i was to choose one thing though, it would be trees.

very true, trees can be hard to draw sometimes, but with drawing figures i don't really have much trouble, but i do have to say i'm very anal about drawing, i don't stop until it's perfect, there are days where i just can't draw at all, but i figure if its not coming to you at the time, your better off trying again later and starting on something else you can handle for the moment, cos it always comes to you, and you should always let things just come to you easily rather then force them, its just being patient for the perfect time when everything starts to flow for you, other wise if you push these things to hard it just leads to frustration...

ok enough rambling, hope you can all sort of understand what i'm on about

Hmmm... for me, I find it very hard to make my people look realistic. I can draw/paint people fine, but they have an almost 'cartoon' look about them? Mainly in the face.. so I'm not very good at portraits! But I try! Rolling Eyes

mine is drawing figures, especially faces. That's why I go for landscapes only - you can get away with nearly any diversion from correct symmetry & proportion Shocked

I would say faces also. It is something I will be concentrating on improving over the next few months. I want to do a portrait of my father, but can't get it looking enough like him, so practice, practice, practice!!

For me its teeth - I have no trouble with eyes, noses, hair etc etc but if the subject is showing their teeth that is where the trouble begins - they always end up looking like fence posts Smile I have been told that when doing teeth less is best but I still can do the little blighters

If I had more practise, I could just close the mouth a little more to hide them, but I'm not that good Laughing

I think that I will always say that I can't draw anything well. The thing I have the most trouble with would be the face. I always seam to be just one mil out Mad

Very Happy

The same here...
I woul like to Draw and paint everything better, especially Portarits as this is my Passion...

I love all art, but, portraiture is what I do best and i love it...

I am brazen enough to TRY the Doug Moran Portarit Show.

Happy New 2006 to everyone here, I had a good year chatting with all the Talented Artists here...

All the Best, from Artwoman and cats...
