Emma Farraday

I take a questionnaire about the students experience, requirements, and interests, a quick search of what they wish to achieve or develop, learn aspire to or level they want to reach. Hard work is noticeable from practice, and achievement is marked and noticeable from this process. I love drawing, and I wish to share that passion with others by providing the tools for them to start. I use photographs and have emulated the masters, of animals people, boats buildings scenery and impressionism, nothing is left undrawn, I have noticed my skill has improved, by observing light, shadow, colour, details, depth and scale, a learner would only see colour and shape, it's the study that's important, like building a house, you need lots of skills to achieve the finished result. I am now drawing on canvas, A2, and doing observations on A5, A4 work was years ago, I draw in pencil, coloured pencil, felt tip, watercolour, gauche oil and wax crayons. I only studied that masters, as I was not sure of my style, I have drawn cartoons, manga lictchenstein and whistler, as well as Renoir van Gogh turner and constable as well as Gainsborough, every previous artist before me had something to say, and I have listened to their work, and wish to share this with others, I have an every day passion to draw, some days I struggle other days I am immortal, but every day I want to draw, the passion is there to deliver to others too
