Gift

I am not a professional artist. I only have this hobby since my childhood and in this way I spent some hours. I left it completely for few years and without any explanation the flame just rebirth this year.

Since, I was searching on internet for some interesting materials in order to help me to learn good drawing habits in the proper way. I finally found this site, Drawing Academy and was impressed by the quality of this course.This course is worth fighting for.

Charcoal Lights a Fire in Me!

Ever since I was a little girl I admired, yea, even envied my younger brother’s natural drawing abilities. He could stop on a dime and sketch something quickly that would blow your mind. Stick figures were my best effort and I believed that I could never be an artist because I wasn’t born with the talent.

In 2015, I had begun to paint with acrylics and quickly realized that drawing was a necessity and began to apply myself to learning with a fresh mindset. I LOVE painting and that passion fueled my intent to learn to draw.

Panther Crossing

My name is Cathy Edwards. I work on my art whenever I can find the time! Art is a very important part of my life now, but of course, my husband and cats come first!

My main challenge is perspective.

The subjects of my artwork consists mainly of animal and people portraits so I would like to expand more on still life.

I am new to the Drawing Academy website. I haven’t explored it fully yet, but it seems quite interesting and informative.

Metalpoint Koi Fish Drawing

My name is Carlos Torres and I am from Mexico. Art has been my favourite hobby since I can remember. I hope to become a great scientist some day, but also a great artist. I recently became interested in metalpoint drawing techniques because of the Drawing Academy channel on YouTube.

I think that the Drawing Academy course is very complete and that it could be very helpful for me, as it covers metalpoint techniques and anatomy.

Leander Paes … Tennis Icon

I am Richard from India. I started drawing at a very early age of 5. But as I started loving drawing I was told by my parents and elders to concentrate on studies and not waste time on drawings. I started getting fond of figurative drawings … human as well as animals. The anatomy, the shape, the form; started fascinating me. Anyhow I tried to manage some time out to draw. After my high school I wanted to join Government Art College…

Mystic Statue

I am a self-trained artist, who has had great help attending one painting workshop a decade back. I am a healthcare professional, living in two different continents. I spend more time imagining doing art, rather than actually putting brush to canvas. This is the challenge than I have to overcome, my laziness.

The Drawing Academy course has already helped me try drawing a statue that has intrigued me in my hometown for a long time. I don’t know why this statue is placed in a very crowded marketplace, and why it is broken! Using western drawing techniques I wish to explore such spots further and entertain my viewers.

Old, not Obsolete

I am a 16 year old girl, from the United Kingdom, who has been teaching herself to draw ever since the age of 8. Over the past 8 years I have done a range of different artworks, trying to find ways to better myself and improve as not only an artist but as an influencer, as artwork, no matter what kind, always has an influence.

My life revolves around art. I could wake up, and the intricate patterns of my bed sheets inspire me, I could go to school and see different faces— different energies— they inspire me. I create as I feel the inspiration, and since the inspiration is not short of everywhere I’m almost always creating something.
