Ever since the time she can hold a pencil, she has been drawing and has been improving this skill in realistic drawing continuously. Growing up, art has always been her passion and while still studying in grade school, she always dreamed of pursuing a career in the arts. While in school, she accepted arts commissions and eventually ended up with landing an illustrator position for a storyboard company as her first job. The company she worked for has given illustrating services for U.S and U.K. based companies, such as Wendy’s, Ford Motors, and Yoplait to name a few. During Therese Barleta’s childhood years, her mother always gave her a pencil and a stack of papers to draw on, which she would doodle various images on. As the doodles developed into recognizable drawings of animals and people, her family discovered that she had a knack for drawing and they encouraged her to keep practicing this skill. Comic books, such as Archie, Marvel, and, eventually, Manga, nurtured her love for drawing and then later developed her skill for drawing realistically when Interactive Arts Services employed her as a storyboard penciller. The job required constant drawing of different people of different ages, sexes, and races depicting various everyday situations and this constant practice sharpened her skill in realistic drawing. HowExpert publishes quick 'how to' guides on all topics from A to Z by everyday experts.
