My name is Sharaah, I’m 16 years old, I’m an artist and I wanna learn more about figure drawing.
For my whole life, art has been my path in life. I’ve always been a creative person and I love to see the beauty in things. A couple years ago I went through difficult times and I started drawing as a way of healing. I see art as a way of understanding things better, a way of seeing things in a beautiful light…
Foundation Drawing Art I grew up in NYC with composer parents and artsy grandmother. Art has always been a hallmark of my existence along with the piano and great composers. The two have a significant… Story from Diane Stolz
My name is Alevtina, I born in Ukrraine, grow up in Moscow. Last 15 years I being leaving in London. I come from modelling background & that’s why I choose to do fashion education.
I graduated from Istituto Marangoni with Bachelor of Arts in Fashion Styling. I always admire art & studied history of arts, attended many arts events, but funny enough I never try to draw until last November…
I’m 19 years old and I wanna be an architect so art is my life…
I draw as long as I can remember. The pages of my diary in High school ware full of sketches…
I am 58 years of age and have always envied people who could draw. I have always maintained that I cannot draw, but in 2011 I began to give it a go. Most of my initial drawings were in graphite and looking back at them not too pleasing but were showing signs of improving, it is only in the past year or so that I have experimented with other media such as watercolour, coloured pencils, ink and pastels…

I like drawing and sketching. Despite I was taught how to paint, my preferred medium is graphite pencil…
Art, especially visual art, has always ‘been there’ for me … but life got in the way a lot of the time and I neglected art for decades. I was even told by an art teacher, when I was young, that “you don’t need teaching, you just need to be left alone!” because I had an intuitive feel for some aspects of art. For example I seemed to be able to pick up on and convey the mood of the model in life drawing classes and I was not bad at composition … but I knew I had severe weaknesses in other areas of art, but was too immature to do other than to keep on lazily returning to my strengths…
I was raised in a very small rural town in Alaska with no real access to art classes or training. Most of what I have learned about drawing and art, I have taught myself.
I love to draw beauty, and most of my work consists of portraits. I have drawn a variety of subjects in the past.
While I do take commissions for others, mostly I draw for myself. I challenge myself with each new piece to do better, and I am always desiring to learn new things!
Good afternoon, or evening, or morning, depending on when you read this. My name is Mike, I’m 58 and I live in Wisconsin, a beautiful state, in my unbiased opinion.
The drawing I submitted is of my wife. If you knew her, you would say, yeah that kind of looks like her, I would like to leave no doubt that when you look at my drawings that you can recognize the face you’re looking at…
