Study by Bony Jean-Eddy, Drawing Academy Student
It is a piece about how music broke barriers.
It will serve as well as a blank slate to climb towards that true constructive drawing and development with Drawing Academy…
Drawing by Felipe Wolff
The bust of Neptune

Artwork from Sandra Alina
A new beginning
Hi, my name is Sandra Alina and I graduated as a theater critic in 2005 at the National University of Theater and Cinematographic Art, Field: Dramatic Critics, Bucharest, Romania.
I loved art since I was a little child but I didn’t have the opportunity to study it at a high level although I have a diploma in Fine Arts.
I want to learn how to draw and paint because I don’t have the necessary skills for developing my art and Drawing Academy is what I am looking for…

Nymph
I want to thank Vladimir and Natalie for providing such a wonderful experience. I had no training in art at all. In fact, I did not really draw or paint anything until I turned 54. It was the Drawing Academy course that got me started. I have a very LONG path ahead, but at least I have begun. The journey is the point, right…

Keeping the spirit of fine art alive in Estonia
Hello!
My name is Sung, I’m 20 years old and live in Estonia, although I’m half-Korean.
I started drawing when I was a child (about six years old) by copying characters from Japanese anime shows and manga. The characters looked very basic but they had a certain appeal. My family loved my drawings (my mom painted as a hobby, my sister has a bachelors degree in jewellery art), but for some reason, I quit art and drawing completely for over ten years.
I bought a sketchbook and started studying from Andrew Loomis, who teaches the constructive method of drawing. I also started studying anatomy in my spare time (by watching YouTube tutorials and reading/studying from books). This year I found out about your other course, the Anatomy Master Class and I have to say, it has been amazing! It teaches you everything you need to know about how different body parts work so it has been a great guide for me on how to draw the figure from imagination…
Artwork from Julia Homenko
Never too late
As an older emerging artist with works reflecting both beliefs and concerns for all sentient beings and as love of the dark and folktales.
Growing up in a middle class family, as a tom boy and my Dad’s fishing buddy, nature was always appreciated. But her love of painting was not encouraged and a profession was demanded; but as the opportunity arrived she returned to her dream of becoming a professional artist. She has recently expanded this to include her grandfathers’ technique of wood-burning with paint…
Review from Suely Porto Curi, Drawing Academy graduate
Future Classic
I am a 46 year old artist from Brazil, who discovered art relatively late in my life, yet I still have the opportunity to study art academically.
I am very fortunate to be a student of the Drawing Academy. Here, I developed my skills and knowledge about art…

Passionate Art
Hi Everyone!
My name is Victoria S. and I’m 20 years old. I’ve grown up with a passion for drawing and the visual arts. Each and every day that passion blooms and grows more and more.
Art takes on a huge role in my life. I practice every day for as long as I can. It is my primary way of self-expression and being creative…
Drawing Academy review by Karina Lykke Lumholt
The joy of drawing can drive my out of bed at 5 in the morning
I have been drawing every day for more than 6 months, and it fills me with so much happiness that it can drive me out of bed at 5 a.m.
Before I joined the Drawing Academy, I was mainly drawing from drawing books and from YouTube tutorials. Practicing with the Drawing Academy on a daily basis has given me thorough basic skills and knowledge, and I look forward to starting all over again with some of the drawing lessons and compare new drawings with my first attempts in order to evaluate my skills. I will certainly also consider other lessons from the Drawing Academy and would highly appreciate a course on the use of pastels…
