Hi,
My name is Erik and I’m 44. 
As a teenager, everyone called me talented at art but I didn’t have the drive to keep it going. After getting a Master of Science degree and working for 10 years I felt I wanted to return to art for personal fulfillment. 10 years into my rebooted art journey I feel I need a refresh, and I think this course might be it.
My main issue is that I keep chasing the next shiny object. So before I master anything I move on to some other art-related topic (graphic design, vectorized drawings, 2D painting, 3D modeling, 3D sculpting). But I keep returning to 2D painting and I need to revisit the basics.
My short-term goal is to be able to draw generic female and male bodies from imagination in any position from a normal perspective. (Using reference to figure out details of course.) My long-term goal is to create wonderful colored paintings.
This is a painting that I made in 2017 which I still think is pretty good except for the background. It's probably a good measuring stick to what I can do.
Let's see what kind of level-up this course can give me.
