Greetings everyone!
My name is Silvija. I work as a preschool teacher. At my work and in my life and free time, I often use my hands to make something. I can sew by hand and with machine, knit, crochet… People around me would say that I’m a crafty person. Me and my hands did hundreds of items for me or for somebody else.
My story: I draw since I was a child, I painted walls, Funny story recovering my sketchbook bc I was drawing at class. I draw since I have memory. I used to draw every place and every moment I even drew on the walls with crayons and colour pencils. Drawing has always been with me. I remember that one day – at school – I was drawing in my sketchbook during the class and my teacher saw me, so she took my sketchbook. I felt bad that moment, but I need to recover My Precious. That day, when I finished all my classes, I waited for my teacher to go somewhere so I could take my sketch. The teacher went to the bathroom, so I quickly and as silent, as I could, I went to the teacher’s desk, took my sketchbook and ran away as fast as possible. That was exciting and a little bit dangerous, but I recovered what I wanted.
Drawing has been something I think of have enjoyed since the first day I picked up how to draw book when I was in Primary School. I really have been fascinated with the medium for a long time however I felt alone because in my family lineage most people entered the field of Engineering so I wasn’t able to relate to anyone.
You already know my name: Willy. I am living in the Netherlands. I paint everyday, mainly watercolor. My drawing skills are not that good, so that is my biggest challenge.
Essentially, what I do is capture an actual moment or event about me or someone else in conversation and capture it as an art piece!
My name is Anxhela.
I am currently studying architecture. Painting is one of my greatest passion and joy in my life.
I have always try to challenge myself in new experimentations in painting to find out how my true art is.
I heard a theory that it takes about 10,000 hours of deliberate practice to master a skill. So in the autumn of 2019 I promised myself to sketch every day, hoping to improve on my just-above-average drawing ability.
I want to be able to produce artworks exactly as I envision them and not remain bound to copying photographs, trying to obtain the realism I’m looking for.
