Live my dream

I am Chinazo Okeke, 25, and I am a medical doctor living in Nigeria.

I’ve always loved to draw as a hobby. Art is a passion of mine, but it has had to take second place because I was pursuing becoming a doctor.

I have challenges with drawing from my imagination, getting proportions right, and I have only just begun to explore oil painting and coloured pencil drawing…

All Things Art

I was born and raised in NYC (Bronx, NY), I now live in a small town near Albany, New York.

I have been drawing since before I could write my name, but I never pursued art as a career. For almost 30 years I have worked in business administration, my entire adult life. Recently I took the leap to pursue a career in art, but I have no real formal training, and that limits my creativity greatly. I also feel stunted as far as what to create, what to sell, etc… Urgh!

I’m a self-taught artist. I’ve always dreamed to be an artist but none in my family truly see it unless my twin sister and now my fiance.
Art is now at the first place in my life because I left all my works to follow what my heart desires most.

I started to paint with oils 5 months ago and literally felt deeply in love, I’ve always used charcoal pencils but oils blown my mind!

Radosveta Zhelyazkova Fine Art

My name is Radosveta, I’m from Bulgaria. I am creative and a mother of two loud boys. Once upon a time I worked in an office but now I am sharing my love of art with the people – also lovers of art. I adore all sorts of art but my main medium is oil on canvas.

I love nature in its many manifestations. My family owns lands of lavender and sage. I often spend my free time in the countryside around their farm. I am inspired by what I see there. This is how I create my landscapes of grass, meadows, lilacs and lilies, of seas of wheat and orchards of trees.

I also love to travel and explore different destinations around the world. My paint brush is my constant companion. It helps me to capture and recreate my travels. You can see some of them in my paintings.

To the Moon! Dreaming…

I am a graphic artist, tied to my mac most days and nights. I dream of a home studio perfectly organized where I can simply learn new techniques and create beautiful pieces of art based solely on what I envision.

My challenge is time and finances…no lack of vision here! I enjoy watching other artists perform and have spent hours online doing just that.

I feel that the Drawing Academy will provide structured training that will allow me to refine my God given talent and since I’ve decided to endeavor the masters course it would be wise to also hewn my drawing skills!
