Master the Fundamentals
Drawing is a skill you can build, not an innate talent. Professional illustrator Brooke Glaser walks you through the exact techniques she uses in her day-to-day work—breaking down proportion into quick, accurate methods, and diving deep into shading theory and application.
What You'll Learn
- Proportion techniques for speed and accuracy
- How to enter the 'zone' of flow while drawing
- Shadow types and placement strategies
- Digital and traditional approaches
Taught in Procreate but fully accessible to traditional media users, this class proves anyone can learn to draw with the right foundations.
About this course
Drawing is a learned skill. Even people who seem insanely 'talented' weren't born that way: we all start as beginners. My name is Brooke Glaser, I'm a full-time illustrator. Drawing didn't come naturally to me, at first I struggled with it. But now I work as a professional illustrator. In this class, I'm going to share the techniques I use to draw proportions quickly and accurately, tips for getting in the 'zone' of drawing, and we're going to dive deep into shading. I'll share the different types of shadows, where to place them and different tricks for drawing them digitally.
My goal with this class is to show you that anyone can learn to draw. If you're a new to drawing, this is the perfect class for you. The examples will be done entirely in Procreate, but if you prefer working with traditional mediums, you'll be able to follow along just fine.
