Drawing and Shading Course

The ideal drawing course for beginners. Super easy pencil drawing method. Everything explained in detail…

The Complete Beginners Drawing and Shading Course

You’re in exactly the right place. This course is for beginners and also for those who want to gain confidence in the fundamentals. I start you off nice and easy – Basic shapes and construction drawing. Master these and you’ll feel your confidence growing already.

Wow! It looks so realistic! – Shading and Form

Those skills you’ve admired in other artists for so long can be your skills too. Projects like ‘The Shoe Well Travelled’ will challenge you (but you are up to the task!) Your drawing will almost ‘pop’ off the page, amazing yourself and those around you.

One of the most admirable skills in art – Portraiture

Capturing a likeness is one of the most admirable skills in art. It’s so satisfying. Render individual facial features and create a wonderful child portrait.

Look at the world in a whole new way – Perspective and Proportion

How can you represent the three-dimensional world on a flat piece of paper? How do things we see change as they get closer, further away, or turn towards us? These questions are all answered with perspective. Your eyes are now open to a whole new way of seeing and drawing.

Plus an extra bonus…
For additional inspiration, I’ve included an extra bonus section where I detail my approach to drawing people and cute characters using construction drawing.

This is the beginners drawing course you’ve been looking for…

Even if you think you’re not naturally talented my super easy methods and in-depth explanations will set you on the path from your first pencil lines towards creating professional-grade artworks.

I’ve been teaching beginner artists for over 20 years. I know exactly what you need to get started the right way, and I’ve jam-packed it into this course.

Plus, if you have any questions at all throughout your drawing journey, just ask. My team and I are right here for you.

My students say we have “the best Facebook group on the internet!”

When you enroll in this course you can join my Facebook group “The Beginner Drawing Family”. It really is the most supportive and friendly community you’ll find anywhere. My students call themselves ‘DrawPj’ers” (after my website).

It’s a family-friendly place where you can ask questions and request feedback from the community. When you’re feeling confident you can share what you’ve learned with others taking the same exciting journey.

I’ll be there too with my team too. I look forward to meeting you and seeing all the wonderful things you create.
