Artwork by Poncet

Hello,

I am Poncet, and I really love painting. I am from Reunion Island and this is the place that inspires me the most.

My favorites art movements are baroque, impressionist and romanticism.

Since I have never took drawing or painting classes, my level of painting is, I think, really low, but I hope to improve it with the Drawing Academy lessons!

Drawing Academy is a very good website and they have really good videos, I have watched them all.

Drawing Academy will really help me to improve my drawings and paintings. I think that the lessons are really complete…

Artwork by Paula Marie Deubel (P. Mari)

I’ve been drawing since I learned to hold a pencil; my grandmother encouraged me by showing me how to draw horses (at that time, they were my favorite subject). I drew hundreds and hundreds of horses, even at school and in Sunday School class. Scolded often by teachers, I kept on drawing in secret! Finally, when I was nine-year-old, my mother enrolled me in private art classes in East Detroit. After that, I studied under various artists for about ten years. I later began to draw and paint angels, as the creative process truly is an observance of “angelic visions.” …

Artwork by Kos Cos

Kos was born in Sri Lanka into an artistic family and began drawing and painting at an early age. After school, his playground was his father’s agency workshop, where he studied and practised brush skills in the golden age of hand-drawn advertising. In 1999, he moved to Hong Kong, where he has worked in a creative capacity in the film, advertising, and digital advertising industries.

Kos paints in loud and dominant styles, cheap brushes used to apply dripping oils in crude fast brush strokes, experimental combinations of acrylics and charcoal, tropical colour pallets carried to the extreme. From the inspiration he draws on to his choice of subject matter and the materials he uses, Kos’ work is a celebration of diversity in every sense…

Artwork by Alp Moğulkoç

Hi guys, I’m Alp, student from Türkiye, 21 years old.

As a child, I drew soldiers, castles, knights, catapults and make them fight on the paper :D

Drawing never left me, I made designs, small sketches in the school when bored. And last years I started to take it seriously. I searched a lot of tutorials on the internet but those were like How to draw eyes, buildings, trees … etc.

I wanted to learn fundamental techniques of drawing. I understand that without a good foundation, its is impossible to draw skillfully…
