Story and artwork from Alexander Hopson
I like art; semi self taught, but mostly gifted into this place of creativity. I continue to evolve my art, now studying constructive drawing on my own. I want to become a self-sufficient fine artist who could sell art for living. Despite I spent a lot of time working on drawing, taking some drawing classes in high school, I feel that my art skills are poor. My teachers helped me to build a portfolio to get into university but I was going through a lot of issues and didn’t want to waste time by going off to college.
I like art but not contemporary art; I take inspiration in the traditions of old masters and ancient Greek and Roman sculpture.
I have no doubts that taking the Drawing Academy course would improve my drawing skills, and should I not win this art competition, I would definitely enroll in this course.
