Artwork and story from Jelena Polimac

The first thing coming to my mind, when I need to tell about myself, is that I love to draw and paint since I know for myself. Other than that, I lived in many different places, so I like to meet different people and cultures!

Unfortunately, jobs that I did were mostly not in art, but art is always in me and I am searching for every single free moment so I can draw. I like to try all techniques and it is the challenge for me to do my best with any medium.There is always something to learn in art, same like in every other field.

Story and artwork from Vimal Nair

My name is Vimal Nair, a professional pastry chef with a passion for art.

As a self-taught artist, I find peace and inspiration in life through art and it motivates me to create the pieces I make.

Since I learned most of my artwork with the help of youtube and online platforms, I lack the knowledge of the basics of art and tips to improve my skills.

Story and aertwork from Pierce Horvath

Hi, I'm Pierce Horvath. I'm 23 and I am an illustrator, animator, and musician from Chicago, Illinois. Art is everything in my life because I come from a very creative background. My family for generations have been musicians, dating back to when my ancestors lived in Eastern Europe. I play violin, guitar, and sing. My father plays drums but is an electrical engineer/draftsman by occupation. From a very young age, he taught me to draw simple shapes at first and that ignited my passion to create. Deep down, I realized it's about telling a story through mark making and the overall visuals.

Story and artwork from Magdalena Kraus

I’m 76 years old and still learning to do portraits; perhaps, too late at this age.

Story and artwork by Ragav Palaniswamy

I am Ragav and I currently live in the UAE. I am an Indian. I am a student of Grade 9. Art is everything for me. It relaxes me. I do it when I am stressed, bored or just if I feel like painting or drawing.

I can convey my thoughts through art. I can paint my heart out whenever I want.

Seeing the vibrant colour combination, I fell calm and composed. My challenge in art is the same as for others; Perfection.

I draw and paint since I was 13 y. old. However my development in life was in science, Ph.D. in biology. I never left drawing, and when I retired my main interest and focus was in drawing, painting, etc. Drawing Academy is a gift to any one who wants to master painting.

Story and artwork from Mehmet Dere

I often find it obscene for an artist to talk about himself. It is a strange contradiction for a person who is both a state of affairs to tell yourself about his art using everyday language. I have been dealing with painting for about 20 years.

Drawing by Cassandra

Ever since I was young, I was a doodler making odd sketches on the margins of my exercise books during class time. I believed taking the proactive approach of drawing from real life was essential to grow confidence despite little guidance in how to get there.

Inspiration after Leonardo's drawing

Hi,

My name is Yolanda and I'm from Bucharest, Romania.

From early years of my life, I have been fascinated about art and it can express feelings and words, without sounds.

My life send me to a technical university, becoming an engineer, but always I have dreamed to paint.

I am Tilak Thapa Magar from beautiful country Nepal where the Mount Everest lies.

My passion about an art can’t be explained in a word that how much I am dedicated on it.
There’s an old saying that “art is not what you see, but what you make others see”
