Artwork and story from Anika Tabassum
My name is Anika Tabassum and I love art. I’ve been drawing since i was little.i love exploring different mediums and art styles. Art has a special place in my life. For me , art is therapeutic and a form of escapism. I sometimes, express my emotions through art. Although I’ve been drawing since ages, I’m constantly stuck because of my lack of understanding the fundamentals. It hinders my progress making me greatly demotivated. Moreover, I constantly face many challenges, especially in perspective, drawing anatomy etc.

Artwork and story from Diane Ackley
Growing up in Clare, Michigan, USA, I never even attempted drawing. While I was in the sixth grade, I did realize that I could write, and I continued writing voraciously for several years. When I went to Central Michigan University, I studied creative and copywriting, but I wound up working first in Desktop Publishing and later in Administration and Software Support.

The Drawing Academy looks like a solid course with tutors who know the skills of craft, and that is why I would like to get this course. The best thing for me in this course is that I can receive critique on my art. My previous teachers could only tell me “well done” regardless how bad my drawings were. After checking the Drawing Academy articles with critique, I see that the teacher-student communication can be very different. Drawing Academy teachers are not afraid to tell what is wrong with students’ art and how to fix those mistakes. This is exactly what I need at this time – someone who can guide me on my mistakes and teach me how to avoid them.

Artwork and story from Liezl
My interest in art goes back to my childhood years, when my parents befriended a gallerist. I visited the gallery often with them, attended art exhibitions, and met well-known artists when I was just about 7 years old. I was a quiet child so they allowed me in.
