My name is Monique, I am 20 years old and I love doing art. Art is a amazing way to express myself and maybe even others emotion. Art always gives me peace of mind and is very relaxing. I espire to be a animation design artist, I hope to learn how to draw body proportions properly and draw what I see.
An artist inverts his/her observations into canvas, craft and performance that does not only reflect creativeness but also society’s believe / culture / trend.
Art was a lost and found passion of mine, lost during the times when I felt that art didn’t matter then joyously found again when I started to create with a purpose and clear vision. The style of art has changed in the course of the years but the freedom of self expression through gestured lines remains. And that’s the beauty of art-to touch another soul with the use of visual symbols. I was always a quiet one and art gave me the space to express my creativity.
At the age of seven I started taking pictures of bridges. I don’t know why exactly but they held a fascination for me. By the time I was twelve I was consumed by a passion for maps and drawing my own maps put me in a place other than the reality of a world I was not enjoying. I had few friends and preferred reading and going to art galleries.
Like many artist through history I subscribe to a multidisciplinary approach to art making. I find that there are so many possibilities and so much potential for creativity in today’s world that it is our duty as artists to put the pieces together and make sense of all this materials at our disposal.
Hi there! My name is Olga and I am a beginner artist. Since I was a child I loved to draw and to observe the world in its natural shapes and colours. During the last few years I ended up pursuing other fields and only now I feel like I am ready to come back to my oldest dream.
I have always drawn since I was 6 years old and I had a portfolio of drawings. In college my professors never showed any classical techniques they were abstract artists. Today I teach art to 2 small schools in NH. I am a scribe for the SCA, a medieval educational society. I have been doing award scrolls for them. I used to do just the illumination, but started to practice my calligraphy on recreating a Beastiary.

Storytelling is the conveying of events in words, sound and/or images, often by improvisation or embellishment. Stories or narratives have been shared in every culture as a means of entertainment, education, cultural preservation and instilling moral values. Crucial elements of stories and storytelling include plot, characters and narrative point of view. The term ‘storytelling’ is used in a looser sense to refer to techniques used in other media such as paint and color pencil to unfold or disclose the narrative of a story.
Hi I’m a mature amature artist I love painting in watercolours , with all the problems it throws at you you never know what’s coming next (well I don’t not all the time).
I am Bulgarian and have lived in Ireland in the past 15 years. This is my home now and Ireland has inspired me a lot and made me grow both professionally and spiritually.
Here, I found my passion about art. About a year ago, one night, I just took a piece of paper and a pencil and felt the urge to draw. That night I spent about five hours drawing all what was around me – furniture, potted flowers, my feet, legs, hands, some portraits from the internet. It seemed that I couldn’t stop. The next morning I called a friend of mine and asked: “Will you teach me how to draw?” For my surprise, she said “YES!” with great enthusiasm and the same evening arrived with a bunch of A3 size paper and some pencils and charcoal and this is where my journey began.
