Class Summary
I started my journey painting just like everyone else, from the beginning. I challenged myself to get better one step at a time by doing digital drawings every day about the subjects I love most: the people around me and characters from my favorite series.
I will show you all the techniques I use as I walk you through my self-taught process of painting digital portraits in Procreate.
Class Takeaways
- Gain the ability to turn anyone into priceless and timeless works of art.
- Be able to cover everything from sketching the anatomy of the head and facial features to applying light, shadow and color to create natural skin tones.
- By the end of the course, you will be able to paint portraits of your friends and family or make your fan art of whoever you admire.
This Class Is For
- People who struggle with drawing faces. Complete your artwork by following along step by step with me and learning all my iPad tools, tips and tricks.
- Beginners in digital drawing or artists who are used to drawing in their style. I will help you take your artwork to the next level with this portrait painting masterclass.
- Artists prefer to learn the fundamentals in a fun, interactive way by practicing at their own pace, completing activities and getting direct feedback from me instead of watching a simple how-to video with a one-way lecture covering basic techniques.

Joshua Esmeralda
Hi, I’m Joshua, a self-taught artist based in the Philippines. Since I was a child I was fascinated with cartoon characters and drawing them. All it was back then was a hobby, but I realized it could be so much more.
In 2015, I made a new year’s resolution to draw everyday in the hopes of getting better, a habit I have kept ever since. Everyday, for the past five years I have been practicing from the fundamentals, to experimenting and finding my own style. I started from nothing and learned through online tutorials, books, and studying from other artists.
Now I work as a freelance character illustrator and have worked on illustrations for book covers, movie posters and concept art for international TV series. I have put together this class to summarise all those years of learning into one course.
