WHAT IS CHARACTER ART SCHOOL?
The Best Way to Learn to Draw Professional, Energetic and Natural Characters. Efficiently.
What is Character Art School?
Character Art School is a 10 week learn-anywhere video course where you learn to become adept at drawing professional characters. I’ve hand-crafted the Character Art School course to be the only course you need, to learn all the core fundamentals and advanced techniques to drawing and sketching characters well. If you’re an absolute beginner or you’re already at an intermediate level, the course will advance your current ability to a professional level. The course is a comprehensive 10 module guided video course, where the only limit to your progression is your determination and engagement in the rewarding assignments.
Whether you want to draw character concept art for films and games, illustrations, comics, manga, anime Characters, Disney style characters or other styles, this is the course you need to get you there.
I’ll teach you to draw without fear. I’ll teach you to draw well.
Whether you’re a complete beginner, or intermediate at character drawing, you’ll learn things you never knew you never knew. Seriously. Inspired by masters and built on the theory of giants, Character Drawing Academy is one of, if not the most comprehensive character drawing course out there.
Crystal clear in fact. Learning character drawing effectively means having information presented in a logical and coherent way. The Character Academy Course is modular by design, easy to grasp, and allows you to learn in a well paced, structured way. Engage in the course chronologically, then revise each module at your leisure. Grasp concepts faster than you ever have before – there’s no fluff here.
Bridging the gap between theory and practice, each module’s assignments have been designed to both reinforce theory, and feel rewarding. I’ve taken the core of the theory, and purpose built each assignment to help you rapidly progress, and you’ll see the difference in your own work almost immediately. Art is about doing, so let’s get started.
Using an advanced web community, Character Art School students can interact, chat, and submit and review work instantly and immediately. Whether you’re on your phone, tablet or PC, giving and getting feedback on your progress couldn’t be easier. From in-depth critique to art ideas, to making new friends, you’re covered!
WHAT'S YOUR STYLE?
WHETHER YOU WANT TO LEARN TO DRAW COMICS, CARTOONS, MANGA, ANIMATED CHARACTERS OR REALISTIC PEOPLE, THE COURSE HAS YOU COVERED. I'M NOT JUST TEACHING YOU A 'METHOD' OR A WAY TO DRAW, I'M TEACHING YOU TO BE A FUNDAMENTALLY GOOD CHARACTER ARTIST.
It could take years to get good at drawing.It doesn't have to.
Like many artists before me, I started my art journey with nothing but a blank page and a pencil. Little did I know that to reach this level it would take me more than 10 years. I learned the same way every artists learns, through failure, and dedication, but unlike other artists, I wrote everything I learned down.
I’ve created the Character Drawing Academy course to accelerate your character drawing skills from fundamental to advanced levels, and it won’t take you 10 years. I’m both confident, and excited at the progress you’ll make, and I have no doubt that your experience will be nothing short of life changing.
If your dream is to be able to draw amazing characters at a professional level, I can show you how. If you already have some skill, prepare to take things to the next level.

GOT QUESTIONS?
This course is designed for everyone, from first-time artists to people with basic or even intermediate skills. I teach you from the ground up, and we’ll cover everything you need to be great. Talent is just a head start anyways, it’s not needed (I started without any!).
You can enrol at any time, and move through the modules and assignments at your own pace, though I do advise taking a module per week if at all possible.
You’ll always have access! What’s more, as new content get’s added and the course is expanded, you’ll get totally free updates! (And believe me many are coming). The course is hosted on the Udemy Platform, which means you can stream it, or learn on the go with the Udemy app for your smartphone or tablet.
Though the course is taught primarily using Photoshop’s pencil brush and canvas, traditional pencil and paper are totally fine too! (I love drawing on paper!) Realist art theory isn’t medium dependent, thankfully.
