I love her art technique. The colors are so vibrant, and I love how dynamic they are. I particularly like the tiger.

I suggest that she should get a DeviantArt account. That way she can get advice on her drawings while being inspired by other artists. And there are a vast amount of tutorials out there. I find those help me. :)

These are nice. I would say she has a good idea of what things look like. I would recomend she gets some books on anatomy. Or even go to a museum/ zoo and get some photos of skeletons and animals then read and understand the "what" the "why" and "how" of the creature. This will help your friend make there work even more strong.
Can you save an eggi ?? and help us grow big and strong.

Wow, your friend is quite good. The textures and colours she achieved in digital art are amazing; the small spaces between the strokes where the another colours come in are a great effect and gives a unique feel, a style she can use as her own. The Undead Nightmare and Daymare and also the Winged White Lion are some of my favourite.

As for her sketches, the human anatomy and poses are pretty much on the dot. The line art and colouring are tidy, with a healthy dose of detail.

Whomever your friend is, she should keep at it. Follow the advice of the people on this thread as they are good ways of improving. Remember, practice makes perfect. Hope there are more drawings from her in the future.

Going to be uploading another one in a sec >w< She just started a new drawing (of course she is still being pissy and doesn't like it even though it is just a outline)

I love both the digital and hand-drawn pictures. She is amazing, and can really make things look like they should. They look awesome, and she shouldn't give up! :)

Everyone has to start somewhere. If all of us gave up when we started, there would be no art in the world. I still question my drawings every day, and wonder if there were things that I could do better, or if I should just scrap it entirely. In the end, though, the finished product makes me realize that I shouldn't be so hard on myself. Tell your friend to keep pushing, to keep practicing. Not every drawing can be a winner, but all of them are bridges to a better understanding of your own perceptions and greater skill later.
