‘Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.’ – Henry Ward Beecher

I believe that as part of creation we are all ‘artists’ in one way or another, expressing our artistic uniqueness in who we are, be it in our words, attire, likes and dislikes, talents, goals and ultimately our expression of life itself.

As I journey on the spiritual path of self-discover I have stumbled on a hidden talent. Some years back with the encouragement of a friend I put pencil to paper and viola! ~ my first drawing appeared! …

Artwork by Bolivar Chagas

My name is Bolivar, I live in Brazil. I have been studying drawing for years. It is a deep passion for me. When I draw I dive in such emotion, the picture takes my soul, I cannot think in anything else so much bliss. I would like to win this contest because I would be proud to tell to my family and friends the good news. I wish good luck to all the artists in this competition. God bless you all. Thank you very much! …

In my life I have been late to just about every milestone. I get to these milestones in my own timely manner. Late didn’t matter though as I had a clear concise goal. Then in my last year of college I had to take two electives and I was at a loss. My goals were clear until this point. As some may figure I thought this would be an easy choice. Little did I know how that one move would impact my goals? The first choice was easy. I went with creative writing since I had written poetry since I was twelve. The second choice was Art history, and my major was archaeology so this seemed to fit. That one class changed everything in my world and the pull I felt to art I cannot explain. Though the pull was great I still stayed on my goal…

Artwork by Vanessa Brioso

I’m a 21 year old Portuguese girl who loves a lot of things, one of them being art.

I started drawing more seriously a few years ago, wanting to become better and create something that I could impress my own self with. I decided for a whole year draw something everyday, my skills improved but only in making portraits, when it came to draw from imagination it was always hard. That’s why I’m always in search of new tips, new tutorials that so many great artists post online, their own journeys and how they improved. YouTube is a huge friend in this department…
