Innocence

Hi, my name is Tain. I stay with my parents in a small village.

I loved drawing very much since my younger age. My interest in drawing developed after I was introduced to an art competition in our area. I was not able to draw anything then.

I always wanted to take an art class or any drawing course but was not able to take one but I always kept practicing on my own. I spend a lot of time everyday watching and learning online drawing tutorials on YouTube, reading blogs post and many other things that would help me improve my drawing yet I still have a lot to learn and develop.

A Wish, a Dream, a Passion

I am someone who loves art but wasn’t given the talent for it. I grew up watching cartoons and reading books like every other kid and I guess that’s how I fell in love with art. I fell in love with how lines and colors can make the impossible possible. Since then it has been some sort of portal through which I can view and shape worlds that don’t exist anywhere else

Art is mainly a hobby that I’ve had ever since I was old enough to hold a pencil. I was never any good at it, but I loved it nonetheless.

Luzardo’s World

Hi, my name is Luzardo. I’m from Venezuela but currently I’m living in Lima – Peru. Since I was a kid I really like to draw every time I could, but when time has passed on and I didn’t have the knowledge or a path that indicate how to live from art and I wasn’t such a bad student in a regular normal high school (with math, chemistry, physics, literature, English, etc.) I continue with that path in the university and even when repeatedly times during the university I was feeling that something was missing and I didn’t know what was the thing that i need it and that makes me angry, frustrated and down. I took refuge on my drawing.

Probably you’ve read it a million times, but it’s what get me going through the day, the thing that woke me in the morning and make me want to finish my office hours (I work in a telecommunication company in an administrative desk that has nothing to do with art). So, since the day begin I want to finish because when I’m done with the office I run to my flat to draw through the night.

Apocalypse and Peace

I am 46 years old and just starting my art “career.” My art is about the spiritual life of human beings, the inner processes we go through as we grow and mature and gain wisdom. Sometimes this brings pain and trial, but there is also winning through. My work is about this process.

Art is both my refuge and my voice — where I go to explore, and where I communicate my findings. At this point, I’m interested in the Academy because like many contemporary artists, I never learned classical traditions, and as a result, my representational skills are quite limited. My skill in rendering the human figure is no where near what I’d like it to be.

Old masters inspire me. Drawing in the Eugène Delacroix style

My name is Dragan and the Old Masters inspire me the most.

Drawing leads me to a bygone time and relaxes me. It is some kind of a small vacation for brain and soul.

Drawing Academy is build by people who practice what they preach. I have researched a lot online, but in my opinion there is nothing close to Drawing Academy.

It is time to get serious

Hi to all!

Well, I have had passion for art over my 20 years of living, I even had a small exhibition of paintings at the age of 6 which made me really proud (My parents are very supportive).

At the moment I have some duties that won’t allow me to spend my time improving my art skills, technique etc as much as i want to, but I am sure that the Drawing Academy course can grant exactly that to anyone who is ready to get more serious about their ART.
