Sea Oats

I have drawn and painted all my life, but I spent ten years working in a furniture factory, twenty years as a mechanical engineer, and ten years as owner of a stained glass shop.

Fading vision

I am an untrained artist who recently discovered that I do have the potential to become better in the craft. I truly enjoy doing art.

I always drew when I was younger but stopped when I married. I had a senior post in a responsible job, was confident and independent but gave this up when I remarried to become a full time carer for my youngest son born with disabilities. Over time I felt myself eroding like a ghost. 30 years later needing to do something for myself I tried drawing again and found I couldn’t. The fact that my attempts were ridiculed spurred me on to persist and I realised there’s so much to learn.

A powerful, infinite, universal language of beauty

I am commencing university this year and disappointed that I have been advised by artists and art teachers to steer clear of university fine art degrees if I want a classical art education.

I am twenty years old and like to read, draw, and watch anime in my free time. I like any kind of art whether it’s realistic, still life, or digital and it wasn’t a big part of my life until a few years ago when I decided that it was what I wanted to do when I “grew up”.

I’m 68 years young and trying to improve drawing skills that seemed to faded over the years. Would love to be able to improve to draw my grand kids, two adorable little girls!

Homeless beauty

My name is Jad saintbai and I’m a passionate artist.

I am an artist, forever in a quest to learn more from others, discover more of what I can do myself and share further what I know. I believe that artists great or small were never made by their own learning alone, but a cumulative effect of interacting with fellow artists and their own take on things that they discovered in the wondrous world around them.
