I am learning so much

I found the exercise incredibly insightful, for a few days I was seeing everyone’s faces as skulls! And I also started to observe how the muscles move the skin over the bones… a bit obsessive I guess but I am learning. Doing this exercise did change my perception and understanding in a deep way. It is one thing to draw an oval and divide it in the proportions of the face and put features into place, but to comprehend the skull underneath, to see where the external features actually “sit” and move from was deeply enlightening.

Maggie

I started drawing at the age of 2. That was many decades ago and although I’ve always loved drawing I didn’t keep up with improving my skills.

I wanted to do something for my son and thought he’d like a portrait of his beloved dog.

I really look forward to seeing my work and skills improve.

So, I decided that I have to find the right art course where I could learn how to draw anything I want.

When I found the Drawing Academy I was pleasantly surprised by its quality and low cost. It offers so much, including a lifetime membership and personal support by tutors…

Thank you very much.

First commission portrait

My first official request by a colleague, who wanted me to do a portrait of her dog, Bonnie, who is passed.

It was a very challenging piece as I had no idea how to render white fur in shadow.
