As there seems to be quite a bit of artistic talent around here, I thought I would start a pencil sketch section .....

Great pencil sketch..now if you got any money for Christmas..invest in some sketch pads that don't have the metal rings binding them. That way you can frame pictures without losing too much. Kepp these great pictures coming.

Agreed, there is real talent on this topic, lovely to see it especially when everyone is busy slagging the young off. They should look at the talent we've got access to. More drawings Kids then we can gush over you!

hehe!!! stanley you might like to know ive now got an England athletics coach at university and train tues, thurs and sunday mornings!!!! its fantastic and a few weeks back had an olympian step in to help with some of my training. im doing discus and some shotput but my coach has been talking about doing a decathlon. so no lazy sit about teenager here, but ive got plenty of mates that dont move much unless its chasing girls!!!

im pleased you liked my drawing and thankyou belle, the paper that i used has got loads of tiny holes where you can take the drawing out of the book without damaging the drawing to frame, you dont get left with those big holes that the rings go through, but thats not clear from the photo ive used.

You are well suited to be in a book about art, seeing as you are named after a crayon!

Aha! A hole in his armour!  Conty, look up the quote, it was W C Fields who said it when working on a film with children in it.

Nice to see a young buck with so many talents.
What direction would you like to take Conty....sport/ art/modelling? (Lucky lad to have so many choices...hope you realise that. You obviously have a school and home environment that is supportive and encouraging).
P.S. Conty is a type of crayon...


get your people to phone my people and we will do lunch...MAZ Go to Top of Page

who knows? i really really enjoyed my photoshoot today, its the first one that my dad would let me do. so i would really love to become a model (i was offered £500 a day to model for marks and spenser) but dad wouldnt let me out of school to do it. he says my education comes first.
i would love to become a successful artist but most of all i would love to bring home a GOLD in athletics,

oh you meant modelling as in modelmaking (sorry) i am working on a new lip sync for an animation company in australia he has given me the software to see what i can do with it, as he is coming here to england in feb, so i need to get that done too. if you would like to have a look at one of my lyp sync heres a link
