I am a Colombian woman living in the United State of America. Worked for many years in various industries, and I never knew that I could draw! My husband said “You make very interesting doodles!” I was unemployed and needing a hobby. He bought me a kit, sketch book, pencils and boom! I got hooked. I knew of many relatives that could sketch and paint…me? Never!
I am 47 years old, a business man by profession with an Engineering background from India. While I have never pursued art in my earlier years have always been interested and fascinated with the subject. The maximum I had tried my hand on was on doing pencil sketches.
My name is Molly, and I am currently a senior in high school. This year I will be taking my second year of AP (or college level) studio art at my highschool, and i am also enrolled in an AP Art history class. Over the years my interest and aspirations for my art career have grown. Though my passion for art can be limited to the action of creating, I would also like to tell you it doesn’t end there.
I am fascinated by the the art of the masters. The Classical and traditional art that had once been the epitome of culture. Art takes a major place in my life in this aspect. It is my inspiration and my passion.
This painting was made keeping in mind the short details of the beautiful state of Rajasthan which is present in India it shows the attire and the place of northern India.
I am a 72 year old woman from Finland. The love for art has played a big role in my long life.
At an early age the greatest luck was if you could get some kind of paper to draw on. When I was a child, after the war in my country, there was a shortage of everything but I loved to draw – I drew on anything… Later in school the teachers saw some talent in me and encouraged me to draw and paint. I’m forever grateful for their support…
I’m from Mexico, and I loved to draw since I have memory, I used to draw cartoons more often, but then I got more interested in realism as I grow up, I’m 21 years old now and I am desperately chasing perfection.
I would like to make art my profession, I dreaming to become an excellent painter and also write and illustrate a comic book which is my childhood dream which also I keep daydreaming so often.
I’m an Architectural draftsman whose first love is drawing and working as an Expatriate here in Middle East. I know how to draw but not that really good. My life here as a foreign worker is simply revolves around my office and to my tiny bachelor’s room.
Ones I saw a video from Drawing Academy that made me think that I can improve my drawing skills to a professional level. Then I started to do some research, reading articles and watching some video tutorials on YouTube. During this period I saw the progress of my skills, but still I know that there are lots of things to learn and I think I lack basic foundations that’s why some of my work are by luck and no consistency and I’m still hungry for knowledge especially when I started to see some academic drawings done by the old masters from Renaissance period and from Russian and Chinese artist.
I am a young at heart, a simple soul. The world is what you believe it is. And it’s really just love that makes the world go round. I teach maths and dramatic arts. I am a freelance writer who didn’t fall out of love with words, but I have discovered the magic of paint, the creativity of colour, shapes and tones.
The Drawing Academy sounds like the perfect place to start learning techniques and skills…
My name is Frankie Stockman. I am a mother, wife, painter and Legal office Manager.
Right now I am needing to work to help support our large family and so I try to work on art on the weekends or late at night. If I had it my way, I would be a full time artist.
My favorite part of an art project is the initial drawing. However, I find my challenge is that I have a very hard time drawing and seeing the right perspective in the human face, figure and most architecture. So I always feel that my drawings and paintings are flat and a bit lifeless. I know that if I can learn to see perspective better, my drawings and paintings will come alive!
I’m C.nick, I’m in my 20s and just this year I got a job teaching art. I’m very excited that I get to do what I love and share that love and excitement with others.
