Artwork by Slater Smith

Hello,

I'm a 16 year old in high school who wants to become a Master in the art of painting and I believe that learning how to draw first is the best way of getting there and that the Drawing Academy can help me get accomplish my goal. It wasn't until earlier this year that I had grown a love for art. It probably was not until June that I seriously wanted to become a fine artist. My path so far has been kind of bumpy.

My Name is Levi, I'm 21 years old from Brazil.

I live in Sobral in Ceará, in the northeast of the states; there are no drawing schools here!
