Showcase of Art Quality - SSN Gallery

What I'll be offering is the opportunity for people to create and improve their own personal drawing style through learning basic principles of drawing and skills that people may feel they lack thus lack of confidence in their own drawing abilities.
If a person feels unhappy about their artwork, no amount of positive comments will make them feel better as they can still pick up the personal mistakes that an outsider wouldn't be able to pick up on easily. That is where I wish to help, I want to help build up people's confidence and show points to help them recognise the good points in their art without someone else telling them.

I will be teaching not how I want the artist to learn, but how they wish to learn. If they feel there's something wrong with one point of their drawing for example, then the main point of focus will be that area untill the artist feels confident enough with it and ready to move onto the next thing they feel unhappy with, whether or not that being anatomy, faces, eyes, hair, hands, feet, clothes, perspective, angles or characteristics etc.
Knowing the basics will allow the drawer to then develope their own style and draw more comfortably, finding it a lot more fun to draw other than seeing it as a struggle.

Statement of Improvement - Hookshot - Three Weeks

BEFORE: "That's what my art used to look like. I must say I really hated it back then, because I had no clue about Anatomy, poses and especially the placement of eyes and muscles. It was something I've struggled with ever since I started drawing manga. In addition, I had no real sense of placement or colour choice."


AFTER: "A new style, a new way of going about drawing. It's no longer a burden. I draw everyday now, not to improve, but just because it's fun. I didn't used to draw because of that, but rather to get the skills. I've learned so much more in the past three weeks than I've learned in the Art Classes since High School."
