Art Is My Healing Journey
Artwork and story from Johnny Moore
I’m a self-taught visionary painter who came to art the way some people come to breathwork – out of necessity, not ambition. For most of my life, I carried the quiet weight of neurodivergence and PTSD, and I discovered that creating images became the one place where my mind settled, and my nervous system softened. Painting isn’t a hobby or a side passion for me; it’s the tool that helps me stay connected to the world, and the language I use when ordinary language fails.
Music is art with sound
Artwork and story from Destin
Drawing Academy is an amazing institution of art. With that goes my reason for wanting to win the course. I want to advance further in art guided by professionals since I never had a chance to attend an art school.
A story experiencing itself
Artwork and story from Parvinder
I have a different perspective on life. I am inclined to the artistic passions deeply and I create the art in fields of writing, poetry, painting and music. As being an avid follower of art, I try to show my emotions with help of my art. Also, I experiment with various kinds of mediums (specifically in drawing and painting), for example, shading, painting in acrylics and watercolour). I won’t say that I am an artist because still I am in the learning phase and trying out my creativity.
In Her Thoughts
Artwork and story from Natalia Samarina
My name is Natalia Samarina, a Fine Art Artist based in West Sussex, UK. Art has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. Even as a child, I found joy in drawing, sewing, cooking, and inventing new things. Creativity has always been the language through which I understood the world.
The Drawing Academy felt like an oasis for me
Artwork and story from Regina da Silva
The Drawing Academy felt like an oasis for me. A breath of fresh air. It’s like what I have been looking for, for so long, but wouldn’t find. I watched some of the free classes and noticed immediate improvement with my portrait sketching. And I’m sure I’ll dive deeper. Especially I have loved how you insist one must know to draw from imagination: and that’s exactly what I feel inclined to do.
