I always wanted to learn art, however finding a right course wasn’t easy. When I saw the Drawing Academy course few months ago, I recognized its potential and enrolled straight away. I was just a beginner at that time.
In the Drawing Academy, I have learned many aspects of traditional drawing such as perspective, human anatomy, constructive drawing, rendering tonal values and so on.
The direct benefit of this new knowledge is that I feel confident in drawing portraits from life and imagination. This also has helped me in portraying real life through my art which ultimately leads to a higher knowledge of life and education. I have a dream of exhibiting my art in the in the near future…

I’ve done this drawing before the Drawing Academy course. Now, I’m on the second month and I really like it. My drawing skills are becoming better after only two months of study. I will continue the course and recommend it to everyone.

Story and painting by Litsa Raftopoulou, Drawing Academy student
I come from Greece, a country rich in manners, customs, traditions and history.

I’m taking a great pleasure in managing my very first silverpoint! which unfortunately is not very easy material to find in the US, but I did find it.
I prepared a heavy paper pretty much according to instructions in the Drawing Academy video, except I did not have gum Arabic and used powdered plaster of Paris as a ground. I sanded the first coat with sandpaper and applied a second one, sanded again to smooth out. Then I transferred the contour of a Great Master drawing to the surface and started experimenting with the metal point…

Artworks by Carl Carl J. S.
I have been drawing on and off for years. I like to paint but the Drawing Academy is correct. You must draw before you can paint well. The masters had the right idea. While I like modern art, you have to master drawing to be considered a true artist. My hope is to achieve some level of proficiency so I can draw from life and memory…
