What Students Are Saying

“This was such a great class! I ended up spending two days watching it and drawing along, and even after five years studying graphic design and illustration I learned something new and got things explained better than some of my professors have. Sarah gives very clear instructions and explains basic anatomy and character creation in such a way that even beginners will have no trouble keeping up.”

- Karoline

“I've never been confident at drawing people and Sarah's class shattered all my fears. Yes there are classes that teach traditional realistic drawing, and they are necessary for understanding the essentials. But I wanted to create stylized characters and couldn't really find a suitable class for that. Until this one. If that is your goal I highly recommend this class.”

- Jelena

“Excellent course, just what I was looking for and needed. Been struggling with drawing people but Sarah broke down all the steps so well I don't feel intimidated drawing people in poses anymore. Thank you, thank you Sarah, BEST class! <3”

- Sarah
