Hello,
My name is Alex Brown and I would like to share here my artworks before and after the Drawing Academy course…
Hi guys, I’m Alp, student from Türkiye, 21 years old.
As a child, I drew soldiers, castles, knights, catapults and make them fight on the paper :D
Drawing never left me, I made designs, small sketches in the school when bored. And last years I started to take it seriously. I searched a lot of tutorials on the internet but those were like How to draw eyes, buildings, trees … etc.
I wanted to learn fundamental techniques of drawing. I understand that without a good foundation, its is impossible to draw skillfully…

Thank you! I’ve learned a lot in the Drawing Academy course.
Here’s my drawing in graphite pencil…

Here is what Pablo says:
My name is Pablo Ochoa, I am from Puebla, Mexico.
Since I was a child the drawing came first, I loved to draw in my notebooks. As I grew, critiques of my art made me feel like if I wasn’t good at it. So I quit drawing, and began practicing music.
After 8 years of abstinence of making drawings, I really wanted to draw again. One of my teachers in the class of Musical appreciation said: “When you study art, music, painting, dance, acting, you must not get married to the art you are doing, you must enroll in other arts because in that way, you can learn so many new things to complement your studies and become a better artist.” …
The best part about being an artist is that you constantly learn and evolve, you gain new wisdom and experience a range of beautiful emotions though your artwork.
I want to be a good artist, it’s my dream. Please vote for me so I could get an admission in the Drawing Academy and reach my goal. Please help me to achieve my dreams…
