This is an introduction to not only "Digital art" but art in general. In this very in-depth course you will start from novice and or hobbyist and end with the mentality and skills of a professional. I cannot promise you work as no one can. But the skills you acquire here will enhance not only your own work but give you a solid base to in any other online course or book etc. There is no "Quick fix" or Short cuts to making great art. It requires work. It's fun work and I'm going to show you a method  that will make creating your own art or a clients work "pain free".

  • You will learn solid techniques to make amazing art

  • You will be able to think like an artist and be a problem solver

  • This is for those that are serious about improving art

  • You will need some sort of drawing tablet (Wacom etc) or computer tablet (ex..Ipad , galaxy etc)

  • Keep and open mind and there is no time limit , work at your own pace.


I hope you will join me and allow me to be your professional guide on your art journey.

Who this course is for:

  • Beginner Artists
  • Art students
  • Graphic Designer
  • Anyone wanting to create their own digital art
  • NOT for someone who isn't serious about improving
  • NOT for someone who wants short and vague lessons
  • NOT for someone looking to speedpaint
  • Not for someone who does not want to put n the work

Aside from being an artist as long as I can remember I started offering a few tutorials on Youtube. Little did I know that by teaching people the fundamentals of art and anatomy i'd begin a new dimension to my career. Being a working freelance illustrator with a youtube channel is hard work, and I wouldn't change a thing. I steadily expanded my work from clients who needed branding to doing work on indie games and apps. i enjoy helping artists and non artist achieve that next level. The road to artistic expression and freedom is paved with hard work and dedication. There are setbacks and monsters to slay , but the rewards are great.
