I was learning how to draw a two point perspective.
I was learning how to draw a two point perspective.
I am a retired school teacher, with 27 years as a classroom teacher. I always look for new ideas for my art. I enjoy doing life drawing. I convert my drawings into watercolors.
Hi. I am an RF Engineer by profession. Art is my happy place. It’s where I feel most at home. I am having a hard time balancing a full time career and making sure I still hold on to the ONE thing that makes me happy. I used to draw a lot as a kid, but rekindled the passion again in recent times.
I loved drawing as a kid but that was short-lived as circumstances in life stopped me to pursue my happiness (art) until now.
Before taking the Drawing Academy course I had a notion about some art techniques: faces proportions, shading, hatching, etc. But I was not able to use them well or to understand the proper order of applying them.
This course helped me to perfect my skills and to draw things faster. I found really useful the proportions of faces, and the order to go from the big parts to the smaller details. The different perspectives, the skills of using a pencil – all helped me a lot.
My name is Carmen Wong. I live in Toronto Canada. Art has always been my greatest passion. Growing up in the late 70’s, with middle class working parents, my biggest hobby was watching television after school.
I am an art student and aspire to improve my skills. I had developed interest in realistic drawing from a very young age. I got guidance from my mother who is herself a good artist. Drawing is like an open window to me through which I could get some fresh air and plenty of joy. I like working with Charcoal and pencil shading, pencil colours , watercolour, and soft pastels. Art gives me immense pleasure as well as satisfaction.
