Still life by Phyllis Ryser
In this drawing I tried to choose a still life that would challenge my skills with perspective.
I already discovered some improvement I need to make when I reviewed your video lessons.

Since my childhood I was hoping to become a professional artist. I was thinking that the art is the best way to express what is inside my heart. Every feelings which can’t tell by words. I was learning a realistic drawing without rules and I worked hard to learn oil painting.
But what I wanted is to be able to draw from my imagination, and I was asking myself where should I start to learn portrait drawing. Luckily, I saw a video on youtube from Drawing Academy, so I decided to enrolled this course. This course is great, it gives all you need to know about drawing and its tutorials are well organized.
This is an old French Hunting Hound that also comes into smaller sizes. This is done and charcoal and conte crayon.

Hello,
I am learning and practicing to improve my portrait drawing skills.
he first portrait is a copy of a drawing by Leonardo da Vinci, the second portrait I drew from life, the light source was natural.
I have always wanted to draw this piece. I know some of my proportions are off, but overall I like what I was able to accomplish.
Annette Smith enrolled in the Drawing Academy online course in 2018 and has been a very active student and our art community contributor ever since. Her drawing skills were steadily growing with every drawing task she did. She was constantly in contact with the Academy tutors, sending her artworks for critique and getting our feedback. She completed a great array of various exercises, starting from very simple yet essential tasks like how to sharpen and hold a pencil the correct way, how to draw in perspective, how to use constructive drawing principles, how to draw man-made and organic objects from life, memory and imagination, how to use rules of aerial perspective, how to use good composition in artworks, and so much more.
Since my childhood I was so fascinated with colors and colored pencils. My drawings at school was a bit outstanding from other students. Magazines and illustrations was the point of my interest. I drew film stars and Princess with graphite pencils when I was a teenager, I even drew my mom and sisters and it was almost correct.
I went to painting classes, there I learnt more about different painting materials.
One day, I came across Drawing Academy and realised that it was the course for me.
Hello,
I used to avoid to draw all my life after a pretty sad story in my childhood. But life is short so I’ve tried to draw a couple of images (with smudging) watching youtube. And I decided that I want to draw properly knowing what I’m doing and why. So I’m here. At last, free-hand drawing doesn’t scare me anymore.
