Drawing Progress

Drawings by Svetlana, Drawing Academy student

Hi Vladimir,

In the shortest amount of time possible, I want to learn how to be an excellent artist. I realize this is the wish of almost every artist.

However, I think my drawing skills have not changed and I am still not satisfied with my artworks.

I like the Drawing Academy course; I learned a lot. I now know much more about drawing materials, how to hold a pencil, and how to render tonal values. I am still learning about perspective and anatomy.

I am thankful that you show us the best way to achieve our goals.

Kind regards to you and Natalie, as well as all Academy members.

Hi Svetlana,

Many thanks for your email and kind words about the Drawing Academy course.

I have to disagree with you; your drawing skills are improving and your artworks are becoming better.

When comparing your recent work to your first drawings, this improvement is noticeable.

There’s been big progress in a very short time. Well done!

It is great that you are not satisfied with your results. It means that you are growing as an artist and have room for improvement.

Keep going and practice drawing from life, memory, and imagination.

Learning to draw is not a project, it is a life-long process. No matter how good you are, it is always possible to set new goals and work to achieve them.

I wish you all creative success you deserve.

Best regards,
Vladimir
