My name is Karina and I live in Palma de Mallorca. I’m a fashion designer who discovered a pasión for art when began designing my fashion clothes. I wanted to make perfect small details of my designs, and something that was only a part of the process become super important in my life.
I am a retired school administrator (gifted and talented, Advanced Placement programs). I have loved art since I was in grade school and encouraged by my mom. I received a full oil painting set when I graduated from high school and took a few college classes in art. I did very little painting while raising a family but when I retired I began painting again. I made progress but never could get to the “advanced artist” level.
It’s not a Florence, not Paris, not Barcelona, not Madrid, not St-Petersburg where I met the most beautiful piece of art. The place where that piece is kept – North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh (no kidding). The masterpiece is marble sculpture of Venus Italica by Antonio Canova. In the museum it used to stand in dark room with soft light. The light and shadows emphases beautiful shapes and texture of the statue. When look at it you better understand what means idiom “marble skin” and why ancient Greeks adore the sculptures and the artists who created them…
Hi, I’m Gustavo Rivera and I am artistically known as Gutí. I am a graphic designer and plastic artist with strong impressionist influence. At present I combine elements of graphic design with painting, such as acrylic with media, inks and oil. In my drawings I show an interest marked by artistic detail, without falling into excessive photographic realism.
My name is Amanda and at 30 years old I finally decided what is it I want to do for the rest of my life. I started taking Graphic Design classes online in August. Luckily I have a very supportive Husband and two young children that think it’s so cool that Mom goes to school on the computer.
I have loved art since as long as I can remember and have dragged my family into every art museum every vacation we ever had. I’ve taken every extra art class I could in school, but I know I need more to really feel good about my artwork.
I have graduated from an autonomous college of fine arts in Bangalore, India. I believe that I can tell my prayers to the creator by doing my work. And my line of work is art. Art is a medium through which i tell my prayers, an unconditional prayer.
The challenges I face are that I am not able to produce quality work all the time. Seeking or making an opportunity to improve myself is a challenge. I want learn all kind of things in art, I don’t want to limit myself to a particular subject in art.
I rediscovered my for love for art more than a decade ago and I haven’t let it go.
I am a self taught artist, since little I had love drawing and painting.
I have gotten to an age where I’m starting to think about what’s important to me. When we’re younger, we have a tendency to get caught up in just getting through the day, and not appreciate the things and people that make us happy.
Drawing for me is one of those things that make me happy. I took a long time off, not really doing any drawing for over 40 years.
I’ve rediscovered drawing and in turn, rediscovered myself. Since I’ve taken so long off, I need to re-learn the elements of drawing that make artwork something I can be satisfied with.
I wanted to learn how to draw since the age of seven! Drawing Academy is a great place to learn drawing. I would like to win this course very much. I will be very grateful to all who support me in the realization of a dream that I have brought since childhood!
I have always been a cheerful person loving art and nature. I am a Master Gardener and my yard was filled with beautiful flowers and herbs.
All of us run into a really big trials in our lives at one time or another. Mine was the loss of my son to Brain Cancer. I was not angry at God for a moment, but I lost my joy in life. I begin digging up flowers and plants that had meant so much to me. I was Heavenly minded and couldn’t get my feet back on the ground here on earth. This went on for years, but I kept my feelings to myself and put a smile on my face.
