Sketch of the modern Thinker
Hello!
My name is Tetiana and I am from Kharkiv, Ukraine.
I don’t have academic drawing education and actually I don’t have any art education at all, but I like drawing and painting very much escpecially watercolor paintings and sketches. I want to learn how to do this professionally.
I think that Drawing Academy is a great opportunity for me, because I don’t have time and possibility to attend drawing courses. So the online education is the best variant for me. And I think that Drawing Academy is a very good user friendly educational online resource with professional tutors.

I have a BS degree in music Education and bass trombone performance from Jacksonville State University and studied Art at the University of Alabama where I was awarded a full tuition scholarship my first semester I had solo shows in the Gadsden Museum of Fine At and The Tuscaloosa Council of Fine Art gallery. I am a recovering stroke victim. I had a massive stroke that took away my entire left side I was a professional bass trombone player which ended.
I was also doing art as much as I could but as a result of my stroke I lost the ability to think on a higher level therefore I was at a loss about how to start. My son and wife kept trying to get me to paint and one day I started and a whole new world came back to me, I suddenly remembered color theory and even the names of the brushes.

Hi,
The wife and I are retired and We both paint. We have a small studio just out of Dushore, PA.
I feel that every piece of art is a challenge weather it is a wildlife, still life, portrait, or even a landscape.
I would like have the support and advice to gain the confidence in myself and in the art I do.
From what I see the Drawing Academy might be the source for me.

Renewal
I have recently retired from a 35-year career as a professor of Educational Psychology teaching and doing research in several universities across the United States. Before that, in my early 20’s, I had taken one life class and I did a number of portraits from photos and a few still life paintings. I found it to be a very fulfilling activity and several folks who have seen that work have been very complementary.
While I enjoyed painting as a hobby, I always felt that I could really do much more if I were to dedicate some serious time to painting and to communicating ideas and understanding through art. Having retired, I now have the time.

Hello everyone, first of all I apologize for the English because I speak Spanish. I introduce myself, my name is Alejandra and I grew up with a very young and widowed mother, so even though I loved every form of art ever since I was a child I had to think about work and I could not officially cultivate my passion that is art; occupies a central place in my life, I am self-taught, I have no artistic training, I love drawing and painting have always been for me the engine and at the same time an oasis, a relief for the soul.

Colorful Shadows
I am an Italian artist who studied in Toronto, Canada, and made a career making glass and metal sculptures and furniture. After becoming ill from the toxic fumes, I stopped working as a sculptor. My life circumstances have now moved me to Italy and am taking care of my elderly parents. I have begun painting but would love to have a career as a painter and drawer here in Italy.

Unrestrained gushing waters
Art is the island of serenity that I seek refuge in during moments of turmoil. While some may see the lack of a formal teacher of art as a handicap I see it as an opportunity to explore every nuance and try my hand at every aspect of the field. Whether it is the choice of medium or the choice of subject I have experienced the freedom to try my hand at all, and excel at some. I have drawn using oil and acrylic on canvas; I have created several Tanjore paintings; I have worked with glass, wood and paper. More recently I am attempting sculpture. Now I realize that a formal program of learning provides the structure that a free-wheeling attempt at learning doesn’t. And that’s what brings me to Drawing Academy and the promise of refining my experience into a formal course with a timetable. Over the years we have moved continents as a family and in addition to raising two fine daughters, who are also artists in their own right, I have strived to continuously hone my talent and improve my skills.
