This website is geared to developing and harnessing both the latent skills of beginners, and those with some experience behind them (whether self-taught or a student of art). The right art instruction and background reading, combined with astute observation anybody can develop as a proficient self-taught artist. Practice, patience and persistence will pay dividends, and we sincerely hope this website will help you achieve some of your own personal targets, and certain lessons will inspire you to become the best artist you are capable of becoming. Even the greatest and oldest of artists will usually attest to the persistently challenging nature of drawing and painting: understanding you are not alone in this may lead to less frustration. When learning any new skill, it takes years to start gaining any sort of mastery of it, and even then there will always be new things to learn, and frustrations to overcome. A knowledge of anatomy, perspective and form can also prove essential to enhancing your art (whether from life or from a photo reference) and improve drawing from imagination. The basic skills learnt correctly can lead you towards your goals be it striving for photorealism, expressionism, impressionism or anything inbetween. The more accurate those measurements, the more like the subject that drawing will resemble (true, it can be easier said than done!). Drawing largely amounts to measuring, coordinating the hand to interpret a representation seen by the eyes. The process of seeing can be mastered by all, and seeing is the key to drawing and sketching, and drawing/sketching the key to using any medium. If art looks magical to a beginner then that's probably because they never spent any real time painting or drawing since leaving school. The beauty of art is that it can be picked up at any age.
