What is your favourite topic of your drawings? I like to draw mostly portraits.

I like to draw faces - not really a whole portrait. They come out well, which is odd because I have faceblindness. I guess I can't recognize anybody by their face, but I can reproduce it.

I don't like drawing portraits of people I know (either personally or as celebrities whose faces are known to me from TV and illustrated magazines), I simply make drawings of people existing only in my own head.

I prefer to draw furniture and other objects, or outdoor scenes such as buildings and trees. I'm not very good at drawing people.

I like people's faces. If only I could show off some of my artwork.

It depends for me. I like drawing things, but I'm more of a cartoon drawer.

me too, every time i try and "create" a face i stuff up the proportion of a REAL face (ears too high-low etc), im better at copying, altering (removing hats or changing writing included in the pics), enlarging,

some time i might get my pic of Serpico (main character in "Serpico" movie, the pic on the cover) onto the computer to show it off

i normally draw dragons, faces (some with medieval added body-clothes etc, like game art design stuff), guns etc

i used to be real good at drawing disney characters, and i mean real good considering i was about 6 or sumthing near

The Rorschach technique works nicely with faces. The average human mind is structured to see faces in very simple indications which is why the smiley works so well. I sometimes cove a paper surface with various random blotches using wet paper, thrown ink, "printing" with a facial tissue soaked in ink etc. Then I examine the result for faces and almost always find almost photographic faces that reqyire very little accenting with line or other technique to make them obvious to anyone. Here are some examples.
