“I’m taking the Drawing Academy course and I love it! After the drawing course I would like to learn painting and do sculpture. Is there an order in which should I learn these skills?”
Hello I am a 55 year old who used to draw as a kid. I once entered a TV guide competition, draw the prospector, when I was 11 years old. My mom said they called and told her I had won! But I was to young to receive the prize. A course in the art institute. I was crushed and stopped drawing after that…
I’ve been searching for a creative outlet all my live. I tried singing, playing a musical instrument, even painting. I didn’t have any talent. So I gave up trying until I saw someone drawing in colored pencil two years ago. I’ve been hooked ever since…
I am Diane Stolz, artist for over 30 years now and a Signature Member of several Pastel and Watercolor Societies in the USA . Art is a very significant part of my life and if not painting or watercoloring, I am drawing…even in front of the TV! My challenges in art is to learn more about values and conception of idea onto the paper or canvas and I wish to express more accurately these principles…
Art is life to me. It serves as a means of expressing my emotions and feelings for others to see. Unlike other talents, drawing tends to expand my creativity space, caressing immediate motivation to study life’s geometry and concepts…
My name is Veljko Vucenovic. I’m a beginner artist from Serbia.
I think art is very important for the society, it’s the reflection of it. It’s something that can enlighten us and help us understand people and ourselves…
Art has always softly called to me, it has whispered on the gentle breeze and beckoned me to come and immerse myself in the true beauty, joy and wonder it holds. My soul has always longed for me to be able to turn my attention to fully gain the skills and take the time to practice and learn how to express what needs to be completely brought to life in an artwork…
I am delighted to have found the Drawing Academy course – I have always had a strong interest in art but have not been able to take up any formal training.
Thanks to this course I improved my drawing skills and learned about the fundamentals of drawing, which has been extremely insightful. This course provides extensive range of educational materials including video lessons, book, art albums, and above all personal support by the Academy tutors. I also like that I can learn at my own pace when I actually have spare time (as a busy grandparent looking after two young grandchildren)…
Since retiring I have been looking for some new things to try. Art & drawing has been on the list.
Initially, I watched some drawing video lessons from one teaching company, which was OK. However, I found the Drawing Academy course much better. Watching someone actually drawing was very helpful. This made me to pick up a pencil and start drawing. I didn’t have any prior drawing experience, apart of doodling in a kindergarten.
Medical illustration has been a particular interest for me as I’m a retired doc; so I began with that…
When I do something, I am really passionate about it. I like to create and learn new things but don’t have a creative career at the moment. I work in a hospital in an intensive care unit as a nursing assistant and am married with five children, two of whom have already moved out. Our family lives in an average sized Swedish town but we are originally from Hungary. My biggest interest is people: I am fascinated by the human body, the expressive faces and gestures, and understanding the interplay between body and soul. I like to have deep and long discussions with others…
