People often learn by imitation. If you can't think of anything to draw, go to one of the various multi-person art galleries online, or simply search for images on the web to get inspiration. Here are a few links to such websites, if you have never browsed them before, please visit them now, I'm sure you will love them! Now, I'm not saying that it is OK to copy something outright and claim it is your own -- far from it! But if you do happen to make a doll, or draw an image in the likeness of someone else's artwork, do the right thing and give them credit. It would be even better if you can get in contact with the original artist before you even put pencil to paper (or pointer to pixel) because some artists do not want anyone doing anything with their artwork. Above all, respect their copyrights. If you can't contact them, at least give a link to the original website if you post your dolls anywhere online. If you have any suggestions for links to be placed here, please email or get in contact with me somehow! Deviant Art - Art - community of artists and those devoted to art.
