Art: Take it back

My college degree in Graphic Design didn’t prepare me to become a fine artist as it wasn’t expected of you to draw anything at all. So, as someone who enjoys drawing, I needed to find ways to improve drawing and painting skills either by looking at books or the occasional community art course which can be very practical but presented more questions than answers. My challenge was lack of classic curriculum and absence of masterful feedback…

The joy is in the journey

Hello,

I’m a retired teacher living in The Netherlands. I’ve just found the joy of drawing in the last year, before retirement. I do have a lot to catch up in techniques and skills. So that’s my goal for me. Drawing by heart, the right way and not only copying the reference, but using it to inspire the imagination. Learning this online seems for me the only possible way.
