Hi, my name is Jeremias, I live in a small city of Brazil.
I always loved art since I was a child, but I never think in drawing as work, because unfortunately where I live there’s some preconception about who lives as designer, so I was pressured to leave my dream.
Today I see that my love for art surpasses anything…
I can fondly remember when my mom gave me Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain…I had to have been 13 or 14. It was a very big deal for us as my parents were immigrants from Germany and we did not have much money, but anything to do with art always came first. It started my dream of creating a masterpiece and one day going to art school.
I wish I still had that book, I’m sure the pages would have been very well worn as I devoured everything I could from it. I can remember my mom critiquing my work and showing me how to change just a simple angle to make something more realistic. My mom is now close to 80 and she paints in watercolours almost ever day…beautiful landscapes.
I am a self thought artist who is passionate about the beauty of nature and our fragile earth. I major in painting landscapes and abstracts also portraiture, seascape and still life. As a self trained artist, it wasn’t easy at first but determination kept me pushing. I started drawing at a tender age and built skills over time. I would spend more time painting while I was in university instead of studying biochemistry. Encouragement from friends, especially family, kept me on track…

I love paint portraits!
I feel that when I paint people, I get a connection with them. I think this is because painting is my passion.
I am Samruddha Purekar from India.
I have completed my Masters in Visual Arts, Portraiture. Art for me is a way and means of living. I believe that art exists within and around us, it doesn’t have to be superficial.
I feel its best explained through painting than through words and it takes a while to develop a technique unique to its own style but the learning process is never ending as knowledge itself is a vast ocean.
I am a late starter, found my passion for art in my 20’s. Decades later I find myself almost full circle, back to painting and drawing after years of moving image/time based work.
Art has always been a constant companion and force in my life, shaped me into who I am. The challenges I face at present after having had a formal art education, is to allow those critical thinking skills to take a backseat and engage again at a fundamental level with the very basic skills and craft of art making.
I am a self-taught artist and am currently pursuing a painting course from an online art academy. The academy is covering every aspect related to paints and techniques of painting, except drawing. Presently am dependent on reference images for drawing and I wish to change it.
As an American illustrator, I work and live in Provo, Utah U.S.A. I currently am an author / illustrator who writes children’s books and creates illustrations, which teaches values. I believe that the world needs valuable art that brings out the best in people.
I have spent the last six years trying to develop my art. I am self-taught, and I struggle with the basics of art. I am now a full time devoted illustrator who has settled down after a life time career traveling as an international travel agent. I have hopes and dreams of someday making my mark on the art world.
Hi,
I have been drawing and painting since I was ten though now; I’m 41. I paint landscapes, seascapes, mountains, lakes, and portraits in oil and watercolor.
Art has a certain place as a daily activity for me to paint draw or learn.
