What Inspired You To Learn Drawing?


Do you dream of being able to draw anything you want, in a way that looks realistic, beautiful and brings across you unique vision?

Do you want to experience the freedom of being so skilled at drawing, you can sketch anything and make it look believable?

Do you crave to finally draw with great technique, learn how to shade, and just "get it right"?

Would you love to create your own images, and "think like an artist"?

If these questions connect with you, then you are in the right place.




Hi I'm Felix,


...and I want to help you finally get the drawing skills you've always dreamed of!

I've been drawing since many years, and am passionate about helping others learn drawing faster than me.

I believe anyone can learn how to draw well, with the right information at hand.

Sadly, many drawing students disconnect from their initial inspiration once they pick up a pencil, get overwhelmed, bored by their lack of progress, and eventually... quit.

Does Drawing Feel Like an Unobtainable Skill to You?


Let me share my story with you, maybe you can relate.
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 that one way felt limiting.
I had a long phase of just measuring angles, matching values, and "copying" what I saw exactly. At first I got excited when my drawing finally looked realistic. But then I realized being a human copier machine isn't what got me into drawing in the first place.
I had another phase studying anatomy in detail. I'd learn about muscle insertions, how they connect, function and so on. At first I got excited as my figures looked more "put together". But they also looked too muscular and "anatomical". I could draw anatomy studies, but struggled to use anatomy to make my drawings better.
Then I had a phase of focusing on gesture drawing. I studied animation drawings and again got excited. My drawings were becoming more dynamic and flowy! But somehow my accuracy, my anatomy knowledge and everything else became worse. I didn't just want to draw gestural sketches. Again I was stuck.
Then I'd learn about form and perspective. I'd try and make my drawings look more boxy and solid...And while I learned to draw boxy mannequins, I still was at a loss how to use form to make better drawings.


Figure Drawing Demonstration

Being close to giving drawing up forever, I decided to make a crucial decision.

To read every drawing book, attend any seminar, and take any online course by pros I admired, until I finally "get" drawing.

And that's what I did.

I learned from a wide range of teachers from very different schools of thought.

From sight-size drawers, animators, illustrators, painters... Anyone who could draw in a way that inspired me I learned from. Each one had subtle differences in their approach to drawing.

And piece by piece the "big picture" of drawing started to become clear to me.

Leading up to this big realization:


Drawing is made up of a few fundamental skills.

The two biggest reasons beginners struggle to learn drawing are:

1) They don't know what those fundamental skills are, and stay unaware of most of them.

2) They don't understand how to to balance the fundamental skills while drawing.

Just like me, they method-hop, never getting closer to what inspired them to start drawing in the first place:


Drawing freely with realism, beauty and consistency.


On the flip side, the surest way for beginners to avoid that trap, and the fastest way for them to become great at drawing is by building a solid skill base in 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.


Let me be clear:

It takes practice to get better at drawing. That will never change.

But it's way more fun, enjoyable and motivating, when you make significant improvements you can see and feel with every single drawing you make.

That's when you realize: "If I just put in a bit more time, I can be better than I ever thought possible, in a matter of weeks or months, not years".

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.

Day 2: Linear Mark Making


Mark making refers to your hands ability to draw a line as your mind intends it to, confidently, accurately & beautifully.
It's a crucial drawing fundamental, a huge determinator of the success of your drawing, yet most beginners never learn about it.
The best part: You can improve your Mark Making leaps and bounds practicing simple exercises for 5 minutes a day.

Topics covered:
-> How to make confident, beautiful and correct linear marks, and how to consciously design your drawings using 3 types of lines.
-> Specific exercises you can practice anytime, anywhere to improve your mark-making skills.

Tonal Mark Making Demonstration

Day 3: Tonal Mark Making


Tonal mark making is the natural progression from linear mark making, and a key to realism.
Yet many drawing students never learn how to make proper tonal marks.
It took me years to find out how to draw tonally, as I’ve found the information on this topic is very scattered and hard to compile.
Topics covered:
-> The 2 grips you need to master tonal drawing. Learning just these 2 techniques increases your versatility immensely, and was one of those great epiphanies in my drawing Journey.
-> How to draw with erasers and blending tools, to create interesting light effects and smooth tones in your drawing.
-> Effective Tonal Mark Making Exercises, you can practice daily for fast improvements in the tonal quality of your drawings.
-> Your 2 best friends: Value scales and value gradations. How to practice them, and how to apply them in your drawings.
-> Figure Drawing Demonstration: Learn how to apply tonal mark making to create drawings that have depth and atmosphere.

Day 4: Shape Design & Measuring


This module combines shape design with free-hand measuring techniques, because mindlessly measuring without training your sense for design is pointless.
Shape design has a huge impact on how well your drawings read, yet most beginners don't even realize it exists.
Topics covered:
-> Intuitive freehand measuring techniques: how to get a likeness using angles, plum lines, triangulation, negative space and more.
-> The actual key to likeness: How to see and design shapes.
-> How to practice shape design: Watch me as I demonstrate a John Singer Sargent shape design master study.

Gesture Drawing Demonstration

Day 5: Gesture


Gesture is about capturing the dynamic, flowing, emotional nature of whatever you are drawing, instead of just copying it. 
With gesture, your drawings look dynamic, and full of movement.
Without gesture, your drawings look lifeless and stiff.
The good news: Gesture drawing is fun to practice, and you'll learn how in this module!
Topics covered:
-> What gesture is, how to see it and why it's a crucial drawing fundamental.
-> Master study: Learning gesture from the great John Singer Sargent.
