The artwork I had given for the competition that is the portrait of An Indian Ruler- Shivaji Maharaj who gave the thought of Swaraj (independence) from Mughal invasion when all the hopes were died, took me more than 10hrs to draw with all my potential.
I think the Drawing Academy is an outstanding place to learn not just fundamentals but techniques that professionals and even artists of old know but as shared scarcely. It is a place where both beginners and advanced artists can push themselves further to meet greater heights while in the convince of their homes or studio instead of having to travel to the other side of the world to attend a grossly expensive art school.
My name’s Emmanuel, living in France. I love art since my younger age.
I love drawing from childhood, I learnt architecture in college and I used to make drawings of places and buildings
I have a growing passion for drawing and painting and during the last couple of years I have got the option to use much more time on it than previously.

I’m a born artist, graduated in Media and communication sciences. . As a bilingual writer I write blogs, articles, short stories and travelogues and also worked in media houses.
My story can seem weird or common, “as you like it. It begins with a passion that I could have followed; I liked drawing so much since I was a little shy girl, but as it happens many times, you chose to follow other’s expectations. until one day when I choose to rewrite my path, after a surgery, I decided to recall my passion and give it new form and life. After a secondary an university degrees, after many Masters, I thought that I could restart all again. I took a new degree in art school and began new courses and university for deepening my knowledge and my skills. I can admit so many defects in myself but I can describe myself as headstrong, dreamer and hangry. I’m hungry for knowledge and learning. That’s why I’m trying to do this here.
My name is Catherin, and I attend high school. When I’m stressed, art helps me relax. Making art helps me to unwind. Values and colour theory are difficult for me. And I’m not really sure where to begin with an oil painting. These are among the things I want to learn. In order to create better portraits in my drawings and paintings, I wish to study more about human anatomy. I believe Drawing Academy will aid me in achieving these objectives.
I have worked in the computer field, creating and testing systems. Now I have the time to do the things I was too busy in my working life to really pursue. I’ve been taking drawing lessons from books and the internet to improve my painting. I have traveled extensively to visit all the historical places that I read about.
