Drawing by A.R.
Men’s best friend
Hello! This is my artwork and I want to tell about myself.
I love drawing very much. I’m drawing when I have free time in my notebooks and everywhere I can.
I think drawing is a good way for self-expression and to show other peoples what I think.
For me, drawing is more than art; this is my hobby. My skills are not very good and I don;t have much time for it. However, I have many original ideas to express in art and want to improve my drawing skills.
I want to bring my drawing skills on a new level. I want to learn how to draw what is on my mind, to learn techniques of drawing, shading methods, how to draw portraits, architecture, and all that need to know to be a good artist.
I think that Drawing Academy is a good place to learn all about art and become a better artist…

Art is a reflection of life
I present most of my ideas in various Media. As an interdisciplinary artist, I have a critical viewpoint upon my surroundings and may take different issues into consideration; however, there is a close connection between image, imagination, signs, language, philosophy, and society.
I can investigate my personal ideas and ideologies in the milieu through art. Art is a reflection of life, culture of the community, and my ambitions. I might manipulate the position of some elements or diminish their apparent simplicity but I am always influenced by the environment and I endeavor to refer to social points which may be strange and also interesting for the people in other parts of the world. I always try to have creativity by the manipulation of perceptible facts surrounding me…

The Edge
My name is NiKole, and I am a busy mom to five kids. I love the outdoors, and I love to see new things and then drawing or painting them.
I love art. I have found that it is such a fabulous way to de-stress, and I love when my kids get involved and join in.
I have learned that as a mom who doesn’t have large chunks at a time to paint, pan watercolors and pencil are the perfect medium. I love seeing a beautifully lit scene and trying to capture it.
I have two challenges in art – the first is time management and making sure that I keep up with drawing consistently and not letting other things get in the way, and the other is my own perfectionism. Too often, a good idea stays in my head because I am afraid I won’t be able to get it on the paper the way I want…

Cherished Memories
I am 57 years old and live aboard with my husband on a sailboat. I am blessed with the opportunity to travel to many countries, and meet interesting people from many different cultures, traditions and lifestyles. I’m not a great writer but, I keep a journal and write about the places I visit and my experiences with the local people I meet along the way. Along with writing I like to incorporate photos or drawings ( I would say dabbles) to correlate with the stories I write about the places and people in my journal.
I enjoy drawing. I’m self taught but need a lot of help. Getting tips from YouTube and reading “How To Do” doesn’t provide the fundamentals skills required to acquire good drawings skills.
Drawing Academy provides the fundamental foundation skills that have been used from the master artist has proven to display drawings as realistic…

Taking a Good Look at Myself
My name is Christie Nicklay and I was born 50 years ago in Southeast Minnesota. I am a contemporary realism and sometimes painterly artist who works primarily in acrylics and oils, but also enjoy watercolor, pencil, pastels, colored pencil and pen and ink.
My artistic journey began as a child when I would draw anything and everything on anything and everything I could find. I drew constantly. There was a time when you could even find my artwork on the walls of my father’s dairy barn. Early on, teachers recognized and encouraged my artistic abilities. Eventually, I became the primary artist for my high school newspaper, clubs and organizations. As I grew, I had dreams of being a doctor, but my father encouraged me to attend school for my art, which I did and acquired my Commercial Art and Fine Art degrees…

Wanna be an artist
I am a carpenter specializing in designing and building Outdoor Living Spaces. I.e. Decks, Patios, Walkways and Outdoor Kitchens.
I took up photography for an artistic release because I always had trouble with freehand drawing especially proportions. Then I was introduced to the Andrew Loomis method and we’ll look at my submission.
Although that is copying, I want to be a real artist and I truly believe Drawing Academy will help me to accomplish this…
