In the past I\u2019ve been photographing but this is not possible to do at night and also I wanted to try something else. So since July I\u2019ve tried some drawing and really liked it. I bought a book and began doing drawing exercises from it but missed feedback and being able to ask questions. So that\u2019s why I have chosen this course now.&nbsp;<\/p><cite>Hester Groen De Porto<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"714\" src=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13694\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester2.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester2-768x536.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester2-300x209.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1278\" src=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13695\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester3.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester3-820x1024.jpg 820w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester3-768x959.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester3-300x374.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"714\" src=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13693\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester1-768x536.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester1-300x209.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1323\" src=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13692\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester-793x1024.jpg 793w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester-768x992.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Hester-300x388.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"background-color:#4f697e\">If you would like to receive a roundup of all of our blog posts once a week to keep you inspired in your inbox, why not sign up to our newsletter.
