Dear Friend,

Why haven't you been able to draw up to this point?  The usual answer is that you

lack the necessary talent.  Actually, if you can't draw it's probably because you truly

never learned how.  Drawing is like reading or riding a bicycle, a skill that can be learned

 by almost anyone.  Once you understand how your mind processes the world around you,

 you can train yourself to correctly see your subject and therefore create an accurate,

realistic drawing of anything you care to draw.

  I have used my learned drawing abilities and have made a good living in several art mediums

including oil painting, acrylics, airbrushing and painting on glass for stained glass windows.

 Believe me, anyone who has the desire can learn to draw.   I am living proof that anyone

can learn to draw.  My first drawings were elementary to say the least.  But, I had a desire

to become a good artist.  I practiced and studied other great artist. The road was slow but

I never gave up.  I was willing to try any techniques available.  Over the years I have discovered

the most effective techniques that allows for the fastest progression. This is good news for

anyone who wants to learn how to draw amazing drawings and do so in the shortest amount

of time. 

 My journey as an artist began when I was a young child.  I loved to draw and had some talent (not much).  I can

remember my first attempt at painting.  My sister had a paint by number set,  you know the ones with colors about the

size of a quarter and you add water to mix them.  It had a few pre-drawn pictures that were numbered. I decided I wanted to

do my own painting.  So, I found an ad in a magazine, a Marlboro Country ad, that had a cowboy on a horse with mountains

in the background. The only paper I had was school paper with lines on it.  I didn't care though,  I was excited about doing my

own painting.  Well, the results were okay, but elementary to say the least.  I had found my new love, though.  I was determined

and confident that I could do better with some practice.  After high school and while attending college I spent my summers on

thecoast airbrushing.  I learned a lot about art during those years and had surrounded myself with some very good artist.  I

carefully studied these great artist around me.  Still, I hadn't reach the level that I wanted.  Obsessed with becoming a better

artist,  I bought books, videos and anything I could get my hands on.  After years of studying just about every technique available,

 I have compiled what I consider is the best instruction in a very concise format.  Follow these lessons and take years off your

learning curve.  I took the long road but you don't have to.
