Never ever painted like this before!

My best friend selected this picture for me to draw. Go to his blog for paintings of his :

He is a wonderful painter and I would love to learn more. This is just the beginning. There are lot of mistakes. Obviously, this is my first piece of work... need a lot of practice!

Want to learn sketching n stuff!

I've got this sudden interest towards sketching and art. I sketched a hand some weeks ago. I probably developed this interest because my friends are studying architecture.

By the way, Im almost done with my first painting using acrylic paint! :D (00:14 update)
