Dolly Jain

Architect & Artist
India 🇮🇳

My artistic journey began as a childhood hobby. I remember being just 6 or 7 years old, clutching color pencils and oil pastels, drawing random things in my sketchbook every day. My passion for realistic drawing blossomed at 15 when I discovered and experimented with charcoal.

I thrive on the challenges of realistic drawing and painting across various mediums. From animals and florals to landscapes, still life, portraits, and architectural themes, I immerse myself in the diversity of artistic expression. While I have yet to master the art of realistic drawings and paintings, I cherish the journey of continuous learning and growth. For me, the beauty of art lies in its endless possibilities and lifelong exploration.

Realizing the impact I could have, I decided to conduct classes to share my knowledge and passion for art. Thus, my teaching journey began in 2014 with just 3 students offline.

During the pandemic, I transitioned to online live sessions, which allowed me to reach and nurture over 2,800 students.

As a self-taught artist on a mission to create a community of 100,000 artists, I believe in teaching in a way that fosters independence. My goal is for my students to grow into confident artists who can pursue their creativity without constant guidance.

Join me on this incredible journey of art, where learning never ends, and inspiration knows no bounds!

My goal is to reach 100,000 artists and help them paint WITHOUT FEAR.

So maybe, like me, you’ve heard that “Realistic drawings are the hardest!”.

Maybe you’ve bought all the supplies, set up your art station, but the fear of “screwing up” or “failing” is overwhelming and you haven’t gotten started.

I get it – and it’s completely natural!

A blank sheet of paper can be intimidating ESPECIALLY if you have that perfect picture of your child, grandchild, or pet sitting right there just begging to be painted.

Here’s the thing though – it’s all about the journey.

Every painting is simply a learning experience.

And by focusing on little bits of progress every day YOU WILL make progress and reach your goals of creating AMAZING art.

I’m here to support you on your own unique artistic journey and I look forward to seeing what you create.
