Story and artwork from Cherie Gillette
I’m a mum of two, and work as a nanny.
I have always wanted to be a full time artist and feel it’s what I should be doing with every ounce of my being.
Art is in everything I see. I imagine drawing or painting people, places and things I see every day. I look at the shadows, the textures and effects that could be made with light and shadows. I want to learn to draw everything I see and feel and show the beauty of of life through fine art.
My husband and children are encouraging me to follow my dreams but I need direction with my drawing and I’m lost with what to study. I want to better understand technical ways to draw especially I want to learn the old techniques of how to do fine art. From rendering to facial expressions and proportions. This is a course I have wanted to do for years and just haven’t been able to afford it. I believe it is the best online drawing course available.
Please vote for me, I will make use of everything I learn and put it to use to show the beauty of the world through art, when the world really needs it, as it does now.
