Drawings by Roossevelt
Over the past few days, I have been following the courses on portrait drawing at the Drawing Academy. As a result, today I am submitting a few works focusing on perspective, facial features, and portraits.
As a Drawing Academy student, you can exhibit your artworks in this online gallery.
We want to see your drawings before, during and after the Drawing Academy Course.

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.
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.
