I have been drawing and painting for as long as I can remember, although I have never had any formal Fine Art training.
I attended the Advertising Academy in Brisbane, studying graphic design and gaining an excellent knowledge of computers and graphic programs.
I worked in the Graphic Design industry for 10 years before I finally grew tired of sitting at a computer and not drawing. I still felt I needed the security of commercial art and since I’ve always been interested in animation went on to complete a Bachelor of Animation at Griffith University, Queensland College of Art in Brisbane, learning 2D & 3D traditional animation techniques…

I’m an 18 years old girl which started painting and drawing since I was a little girl. I think I’m blessed that i have such a beautiful talent, because anyone of my family don’t have any talent about art.
I love math, that maybe because of my dad, who loves math too.
First I started with pastels, than acrylics, and last year with oil. I love to create clothes and I’ve made many illustrations of my creations. I have knowledge about art of graphic.
I love art history and I have very good knowledge about anatomy of human body…

I’m a 22 year old aspiring artist. I love Philosophy so my artistic program includes the integration of visual imagery and metaphysics. This is the motivation behind my submission titled Kant’s Apple. It is a depiction of the constitutive nature of human cognition and critique on the integrity of appearance.
I love the Drawing Academy course! …

About 2 years ago I took a beginning drawing course and discovered that with encouragement and training I CAN DRAW.
I enjoy drawing and am learning a lot from library books and free internet lessons. I’ve also been helping a teaching artist at a senior center so I can learn from what she is teaching others.
Drawing Academy lessons are well-structured and my learning will be accelerated by a planned course.
I am a disciplined learner and I’m already sharing what I know with others…

I hadn’t been drawing for years and then when I retired I joined the Senior Center in town. I was lucky to join an art class that had a retired art teacher as the instructor and she was a wonderful inspiration. This pencil sketch is the product of her great instruction and patience. A good teacher is something to be admired…

I really like to draw life like drawings and to draw what i think and this course will really help me out a lot…

Well of course my name is Brian and art is my passion. Its been a gateway for me to leave all the messy situations I’ve been in and escape away in my own mind. I wasn’t like much by my peers or family and was considered to be an outcast often because of how I acted or the way I dressed and such. I could never figure out the answer to change any of those things. It would often hurt my heart that I had to change who I was for people to accept me (even my family). But when I was around 5 or 6 I discovered a passion for sketching, recreating, and designing different things. By the time I reached middle school I was drawing on t-shirts and sketching fake tattoos on random kids. High school I developed my skill and improved. Current day now that I’m 21 I love drawing. Sometimes id do tattoos or paint but nothing was more better then Wilding a pencil and creating whatever came to mind on that paper…

My story is not that much different than many other people in this art competition. I am an older person returning to art after not drawing very much for many years. I did not take an art class when I was in high school, I always sort of knew that I could draw.
When I first went to college, I started out as a journalism major, but did not like the program. After some soul searching, I decided to pursue art as a major. So I applied to my university’s fine arts department, put together a portfolio and got accepted into the program. Eventually receiving my BFA in drawing. Like many university art programs, they were mainly about teaching creativity.They made the work of the ‘old masters’ seem outdated and historical. Students today are very lucky to have the internet as a learning resource. I wish it was around when I was in school …
