Artwork by Anne Abate

Museum day

I’m finally retired and can pursue my study of art and artists. I’ve been drawing everyday for the past year, something I never had time to do.

My challenges are that when I studied art at the university level, it was the era of “express yourself!” No training in technique or materials or fundamentals. No information on archival issues.

My focus now is improving my skills in composition — and learning to use watercolor.

The Drawing Academy has the potential to address these issues. I’d love to take the course but can’t afford it, fixed income and all. I think the course could boost my artistic level.
