Your Coach
I'm Felix Schreiter and I want to help you finally get the drawing skills you've always dreamed of!
I've been drawing since I was a child, and I know what it feels like to be overwhelmed by the complexity of drawing.
Looking back, it doesn't have to be that way.
I now teach thousands of students worldwide every month through my online tutorials on how to practice drawing the smart way.
Do you struggle getting better at drawing?
If you answered yes, then you are just like me...
For many years I struggled figuring out how to get better at drawing.
I'd find one method of drawing and focus exclusively on it, only to realize months or years later that drawing just one way felt limiting.
Every time I became good at one method of drawing, my other skills seemed to disappear.
My results were inconsistent, and I felt unskilled and out of control. I was just a one-trick pony hopping from drawing formula to formula.
I had enough and made a crucial decision.
To read every drawing book, attend any seminar, and take any online course by pros I admired, until I finally "got" drawing.
And that's what I did.
I learned from a wide range of teachers from very different schools of thought.
And piece by piece the "big picture" of drawing started to emerge in my mind.
Leading up to this BIG REALISATION:
“The single, fastest way you’ll improve at drawing, is to hyper-focus on learning the drawing fundamentals.”
Once I realized this something magical started to happen:
Suddenly I could SEE which fundamental was holding my drawing back.
I KNEW how to improve that fundamental drawing skill using targeted exercises.
And once I improved at it, I understood how to BALANCE the newly improved fundamentals skills in my overall drawing process.
The result:
While in the past I often got worse from drawing to drawing, now, each drawing I made was significantly better than the last.
And this didn't just happen once, it happened consistently.
Most drawing students never learn about the drawing fundamentals, how to see them, practice them, and apply them to their work.
Instead they "method-hop" like I did, and waste years of progress.
Think about it. If you CANNOT:
1) SEE which fundamental is holding your drawing back the most,
2) KNOW how to improve that fundamental through specific exercises, and
3) Understand how to BALANCE your strengthened skill in an overall process
and wash rinse repeat the process with every drawing you do...
..then HOW CAN YOU EXPECT ANYTHING OTHER THAN STAGNATING DRAWING SKILLS?
Well, here's the GOOD NEWS:
If you understand the drawing fundamentals you can use this process to your advantage, and make big skills jumps with every single drawing you create.
