Dear Natalie and Vladimir,
Hope this finds you well! I’ve painted this portrait, but I am not happy with it. I was hoping you could share your opinion of it with me.
What should I have done differently to make it more visually interesting? I feel like the composition and technique have issues but I can’t put my finger on what’s wrong.
Thank you so much in advance! I appreciate you!
Kind regards,
Jasmin
I drew this portrait using constructive drawing principles. I think this one is more on point.
Hello,
Thank you for your time. I’m experiencing some problems with rendering my drawings. I feel like I’ve got a handle on the likeness etc. but the rendering is leaving me frustrated. I can’t seem to get the hang of hatching and cross hatching. As you see in my picture it looks too rough and crude. When I blend it looks better to me. However, I know from your course that graphite should not be blended. How to fix this problem?
Thank you.
Dear Molly,
Thank you very much for your wonderful drawing.

Big thanks to all Drawing Academy Art Competition – Winter 2021 participants. We are also grateful to all supporters, who voted for the winners.
The story of “starving artists” seems to be no longer a popular trope in modern society. While many traditional jobs become obsolete and human labour gets replaced by machines, creativity and the mastery of drawing are among the most-wanted competences for leading tech-companies, start-ups, and organizations.
I heard a theory that it takes about 10,000 hours of deliberate practice to master a skill. So in the autumn of 2019 I promised myself to sketch every day, hoping to improve on my just-above-average drawing ability.
I want to be able to produce artworks exactly as I envision them and not remain bound to copying photographs, trying to obtain the realism I’m looking for.
