Love of my life

Love of my life

Artwork by Armand de Bruyn

Drawing has been the love of my life i guess, since my early school days i have had a love for sketching, my very first sketches were of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and i would practice getting each one of them correctly. From there a never ending passion for art grew which to this day 30 years later has not left me. I have never really had the chance to make a career out of art but i would love to one day be able to be professional enough to regard my work as viable for career use…

The Lady

The Lady

Artwork by Evita Norkute

I am a 17 years old girl from Denmark. I have been drawing ever since I can remember. Drawing have always been something I wanted and loved to do. Drawing provides me so much happiness while I am drawing and not less satisfaction when I am looking to my finished work. I started drawing with pencil, later with acrylic, but at the last i discovered, that the oil painting is something for me. I am really busy in my everyday, because I am studying hard and in my free time I play piano, read, write, draw and train karate, that’s why i mean online courses will be a great thing to me, because it wouldn’t take so much time, like the normal courses will…

My close friend’s Dinesh Nair & Balaji Waghmare introduced me to the basics of Adobe Photoshop & Wacom Intuos pen tablet. Gradually I was
inspired by Sheridan J and other great digital artist’s.

feedback from many contemporaries, colleagues & well wishers, gave me a jump start to do more digital paintings followed by Leonardo DiCaprio, Tony Montana & more…

Need to learn more than copying

Need to learn more than copying

Artwork by William Grant

I want to become a professional artist and took lessons from an artist who taught the sight size method which employs placing the item drawn or painted directly next to the paper or canvas. It helped in learning how to draw but I feel that I’m limited in that I can only copy things and have a really hard time drawing from my imagination. The Drawing Academy would help me in becoming a complete artist…

Things That Matter Most

Things That Matter Most

Artwork by Amanda Maillet

Hi my name is Amanda. I am currently studying Zoology and Ecology at James Cook University in Australia. As a way to help pay for my education I have been selling some of my artwork. Art has always been a hobby for me. When it came time to choose a major, I considered studio arts. What held me back is that I didn’t want to put stress with art. It was my way to de-stress, so I stuck with science and kept art for a hobby. Now I would like to improve my art. I have done some portraits for people but have never felt like they were done to the fullest of my abilities…
