I spent thousands of dollars trying to get an art education but I was not taught even the most elementary skills. I have been drawing for more than 50 years and developed most of my drawing skills on my own because my formal education was inadequate. I knew I needed more solid instruction so I was very pleased when I found the Drawing Academy.
I live in London and at an early age I was drawn to the arts in particular crafts and performance. I loved the feeling of creating something whether it was music, stories or art and I spent lots of my time practicing these disciplines. Since it was craft including sculpture, sewing which I enjoyed the most, my drawing skills got severely left behind and I would rarely practice it.
I am Vanessa Mah from Malaysia. I love art and like to draw and paint since I was little. I think this is because I love nature. I enjoy sitting outside watching the trees, the flowers, the birds, the sky etc. and I see art everywhere and everything in life is an artwork for me.

I am an American traveler and I study art daily. To me ultimate freedom Is having the ability to express my ideas with clarity on paper. I’m very motivated by the content that I’ve seen so far and I’m very encouraged by the tutors on this website.
Hi everyone. I’m Luos, a high schooler pursuing his dream of becoming an artist someday.
Paper and pencil, that was 3 months ago. Paper, pencil, thinking, and planning, through time and knowledge, now there’s more to art than just markings on paper. I was nowhere near a “good artist” and I still am, but the difference to where I was before is that I know well enough what I am aiming for.
I am an art student from Chicago. The year I was admitted to my school I had only been drawing for one year and was still unclear as to the kind of artist I wanted to be. It was only after my first semester that I discovered a burning desire to learn the language of classical art.
