Hello, everyone! My name is Raluca and I’m 18 years old.

Being here and telling my story revolves around my struggle to follow what I truly enjoy doing, creating art.

My interest in drawing developed a while ago, since I could properly hold a pencil. My grandmother showed me how to draw a cat and from then on, I would draw almost every day. My mom recalls moments where I would say “I haven’t drawn anything today” and get myself to work and draw something. I still have a lot of drawings to remind me of those days, where my father would glue my masterpieces to my bedroom door, so I would have a gallery of my own that kept changing often.

Things changed quite a lot when I started going to school. Every week, there was only a class of drawing and from second grade onward, that single art session became a math one. Being a child and an easily swayed person altogether, I was lead to believe that I must focus on school and the subjects that were given the most credit.

I battled new experiences and perspectives along with different people and realized that I must pick up where I left off drawing years ago. I encountered pressure and low self esteem seeing how good people my age could draw, because they didn’t give up when I did. That’s why I entered this competition, to conquer my dream where I gave it up, to catch up with people who never stopped from doing so.

I believe that Drawing Academy has the greatest online drawing courses, not only organized, but extremely helpful and would be the helping hand I need to bring my imagination to life.

Winning the Drawing Academy Course would bring my self esteem back and give me the support that otherwise I would chase chaotically.

Voting for me means supporting someone who didn’t give up, although the situation kept developing against me. I encountered many obstacles while trying to get back on track and winning this Drawing Academy Course would represent all the encouragement I need to conquer my dream.
