Portrait in oil by Pat Smith, Drawing Academy student

‘Aida’ Oil Paint. 20inX30in

I have not yet watched all the Drawing Academy video lessons, that is why I am setting up a new schedule so I can get back on track as I am still eager to progress in my drawing skills. Truth be known I have not been drawing for the last 10 years and this is the reason I signed up for this course. Here are a few samples of my drawings; some of them are studies for paintings.

From doodles to something better

Story and sketches by Ronald, Drawing Academy student I had no drawing skills prior to taking the Drawing Academy course. At best I used to doodle when bored. The reason I enrolled is because I was coming up for retirement and wanted an interest that would keep me occupied. I have had many hours of enjoyment from taking this course….

Drawing Academy review by Ezra

Paper and pencil, that was 3 months ago. Paper, pencil, thinking, and planning, through time and knowledge, now there’s more to art than just markings on paper. I was nowhere near a “good artist” and I still am, but the difference to where I was before is that I know well enough what I am aiming for.

Story from Marina Georgiadou, Drawing Academy student

I lack basic skills, that is why I enrolled in the Drawing Academy course. In this course, there is so much information for a beginner like me to absorb. I watch Drawing Academy video lessons again and again to take in all that this course teaches. I still need a great deal of practice.

Drawing has become so interesting!

Still-life Drawing by Kedar

I applied what I’ve learned in lesson Four of the Drawing Academy course

I drew this from life. This drawing opened up a whole new level of understanding of contours, rendering, measuring techniques, perspective (particularly ellipses) for me. Whether it’s a simple sketch, indicating where the light is coming from and contours with simple hatching or revealing the full tonal values or rendering details, all seem to be fun and interesting!

Artwork and feedback from Guillermo Quiroz Acosta, Drawing Academy student

Hello,

My name is Guillermo, I live in Mexico. I have liked drawing and painting since I was a child and I have practiced it empirically, but 4 years ago I retired and from that date I decided to take it more academically, I have taken courses and workshops and I think I have learned a lot, I decided to take your course to reinforce my knowledge, and I do not regret it.

It All Began With This Course

Artwork and story from Anwar Massoud, Drawing Academy student

My name is Anwar Massoud. I would scribble and doodle in my early days, but once I became serious about my drawing, and after extensive research, I took this course. I am confident in saying that the growth over the past seven years is discernible.
