Hi, I’m 14 and only recently got myself a sketchbook and am beginning to fill it. I’ve never had any art lessons/courses outside of school art class so I never really got to learn the basics or any drawing techniques.
My target for art has always been realism. I would love to one day be able to draw realistically. I also want to be able to create art without having to look up references all the time on my laptop…
I’m a newbie artist. I started drawing less than 2 years ago. Now, I’m studying fine arts in college.
Fine artist is the only profession that I can think of. My school isn’t enough to make me a great artist. Watching the videos after my class will help me maximize my time to practice my skills.
Drawing Academy is great online learning center for artist; instructors are hands-on to the students.
I think it will make me one of the best of our class from one of the worst.
Please vote for me because I need to learn more in arts from these great instructors….
I’m a 24 year old self taught artist. I’m interested in art history and learning fine arts is the one thing I always wanted to do. Art has helped me calm down and put my thoughts to paper. I good way to express myself. I have difficulty focusing and drawing has taught me patience.
This would be the first time I’d be trying out online classes. I’m excited to learn from Drawing Academy.
I want to learn to draw and to express myself better. I want to show people how I think and feel…
My name is Brighita Weinberg, I am 67 year old. I was a professional woman, now am retired. All my life I liked drawing and was fascinated with the works of art. Especially I enjoyed oil paintings of the old masters, their techniques and the way they connect to the viewer.
Most of my training is self taught, and now I am participating in more formal education .I am also using the internet as a source for my training.
The submitted painting is related the picture of my niece that is a solger in the Israeli army. Her gaze and determination attracted me to paint this picture.
I do believe that more formal training in the Drawing Academy will help me to advance in this field, and fulfill my dream to become an artist…
My name is Zawar Ali Zahid. I’m 21, studying textile designing in Iqra University, Islamabad.
I have my main focus mainly on the shades. Its very much fascinating working with shades. Those tones from high to low and there effect of surprising the next person by converting the image to a hyper-realistic form. Shades are something that also merge within your life. I love working on graphite shades.
Most of my work is on human portraits. Imaginative characters and human figure drawings. The way an artist adds that movement that some kind of tick in the drawing that it comes to a real life object’ that point is something that fascinates me. And I dig myself in that thing to complete it and bring out the that unique piece that no one have seen. Proportions are very important and the perspective….
I was born in Brockton, MA. I am a self taught artist and I love painting and drawing. Unfortunately I am unable to attend a traditional atelier and am in need of the drawing academy program in order to improve my life and my art. I’m currently studying to earn a degree in art therapy. I hope to share the joy and healing power of art with others to improve their lives and health.
I think that the Drawing Academy is a great way for aspiring artists to improve their art…
Hi I am Aras Saber, I am a visual artist and have just completed my 3 years art program in Toronto Ontario, Canada. I like to work in a realistic manner but I change appearance a bit for my emotional, expressive venture. Basically for the most part I learned my art education from reading art books instruction…
I want to paint in the same style of the old masters fully learning the steps and layered style which they used from start to end. We should be learning and passing on time honored technique for future generations. I see everything in the high skills of the old masters but do not have the knowledge to attempt the stages to bring about the required result …
In this painting there is a small story.
One morning 5:10 AM, I was on the way to my gym. Suddenly I saw some light in one window. One girl was getting ready for morning walk, when I was looking at her, she looked at me and I saw her beautiful face in dim yellow light. It was Awesome, I went back to my room and I draw this painting…
Hello! My name is Cami Lintz and I am a 17 year old self-taught artist. Born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska, I never had too many opportunities other than in school to fully immerse myself within an art lesson. I was more or less left to venture into the wonderful world of the internet and learn through trial and experience on how to draw.
If you open my google page right at this moment, you will find unending searches on ‘How to draw realistically’ and countless YouTube tutorials already viewed over at least 10 times. I feel like as an artist, I’ve learned all I can through conventional art courses. And being where I live, there are few opportunities in my area to take many art classes suited to my skill and age group…
