I am a retired Information Technology Project Manager who finally has time to explore and enjoy art! I’ve been doodling and drawing ever since I was old enough to hold a crayon and over the years have learned most of my skills from books on art.
For me, art has become the Great Escape, allowing me to put aside day to day chores and problems and focus on something really enjoyable.
I went to an art school that provided a foundation of academic drawing. My love for drawing has been recently reawaken.
I spent several years creating decorative arts for the interior design industry. Now that I have some free time, I would like to make fine art. Getting back into drawing is something I would like to do.
Drawing is the meaning of my life. I draw in pencil and watercolor. The vivid colors make my like brighter.
Hello there, I’m Sue, and I am currently a college student studying art.
To me, art is a careful cooperation of acquired skill and personal expression. Throughout my life, I’ve always felt a strong need to create artwork, both for the sheer fun of it, but also because I wanted my ability to improve. It wasn’t until college that I realized and ultimately decided that I should strive to make a career of my passion.
I’m an artist who loves to create 24hrs a day. Drawing since the age of 5 and now 50. I see life as a master piece.
Finding my style was discovered when I stopped looking and started feeling.
I studied art decades ago but after becoming a mom I stopped doing it. My kids are old enough now that they don’t need me as much and I’m running out of time to sharpen my skills.
I missed art tremendously, its a part of me and I cant live without it anymore.
I am a hard working mother of three children. After my husband’s cancer diagnosis I felt as though I needed something positive. Oil pastels have had a special place in my heart since I was a kid.
I left the career I loved in law enforcement and became self employed. Giving up my career was a horrible transition for me. An incomparable loss. Art has taken my mind away from what I have lost and to a new place. A place of joy and laughter. I found a child hidden in the adult. I had no idea that kid was still around.
Something made me start drawing a year ago. I kept at it. I literally burned hundreds of pieces of paper that I hated to every one piece of paper I kept.

Hi, I’m Paola.
I use to draw when I was younger, than life got in the way and now that I have more free time on my hands I would love to get back to drawing again.
I’ve always had an interest in art, but haven’t had the confidence to commit to a structured art course. Until now. Upon visiting the Drawing Academy site and exploring what you have to offer, I knew this course was for me.
