I take inspiration in the traditions of old masters

Story and artwork from Alexander Hopson

I like art; semi self taught, but mostly gifted into this place of creativity. I continue to evolve my art, now studying constructive drawing on my own. I want to become a self-sufficient fine artist who could sell art for living. Despite I spent a lot of time working on drawing, taking some drawing classes in high school, I feel that my art skills are poor. My teachers helped me to build a portfolio to get into university but I was going through a lot of issues and didn’t want to waste time by going off to college.

Still-life Drawing by Kedar

I applied what I’ve learned in lesson Four of the Drawing Academy course

I drew this from life. This drawing opened up a whole new level of understanding of contours, rendering, measuring techniques, perspective (particularly ellipses) for me. Whether it’s a simple sketch, indicating where the light is coming from and contours with simple hatching or revealing the full tonal values or rendering details, all seem to be fun and interesting!

To start off I would love to say how art has shown me romance, love and patients. Not only did I find my best friend and fiancé through creating and selling art, I also learned how to dive deep within different techniques of painting on wood or canvas to create something beautiful for people to love.
