Here is an opportunity for you to help train fine artists.

All you need are photos of faces.

THE STORY:
I am the creator of a gesture drawing training tool. At first, I created it for my own use, to help me study. But within a few weeks the link had been distributed so widely by pure word of mouth it now sees thousands of students a day.

You can take a peek at it here: www.pixelovely.com/gesture/fig…

WHERE YOU COME IN:
One of the most complex things to learn to draw is the human face, and the training tool as it stands doesn't have enough detail and variety for proper study of expressions.

Therefore, I am in search of photographers who would like to contribute their photos of *FACES* to help train artists of all stripes.

  • You will receive full credit for your work and a link back to your DA or any portfolio site of your work that you prefer.
  • We need faces of all ages, races, genders, expressions and camera angles.
  • All I ask is that the face not be cropped. We need to see from at least the chin to the top of the head.
  • Drop me (riverthorne) a note if you'd like to contribute.



Whether you're a photographer or not, you can help spread the word by faving my news article on this topic: news.deviantart.com/article/15…

Thank you!

Groups?

Every time I go looking for new groups, I'm completely overwhelmed by the sheer number and variety. So I thought I'd ask you guys, what DA groups do you like, and why? Are there some groups that you'd suggest for me to check out, based on what you know about the types of stuff I do or am interested in?

My current favorite groups are :iconfantasy-xchange: and :iconprofessionalartists:

My latest project, the RP repository, just entered open beta and I need users to come test it out!

If you have RP characters that you'd like to build completely free, highly customizable websites for, I want you! And feel free to invite your friends.

Did you hear? I have a twitter account. twitter.com/ArtistSafiye

So I'm in Texas visiting my boy and his folks. My birthday was just a few days ago (Dec. 2nd) and I'm officially ancient now. A shocking 24!

It's bizarre to remember being a grade schooler who thought the 90s would last forever, and couldn't even imagine there would be life beyond eventually getting into college... Because what would life be without having to go to school every single week day???

Pretty awesome, as it turns out, even though I was one of THOSE kids who really loved the bits out of being in school.
