WHAT MAKES THIS CLASS SPECIAL?

After looking at my paintings, people often ask "How did you come up to use these colors? Did it just come up to your mind?" I believe a big reason why people like my drawings is because my portraits capture figures and their unique characteristics using various colors and lines.

My drawings may seem like they can be easily drawn and improvised. But all this became possible having countless drawing practices and failures to come up with my own coloring and drawing know-hows. Thanks to these skills, I can now express what I want to without hesitation and create them into unique paintings. I would like to share these skills and know-hows with you through this class. If you carefully follow each class and practice on your own, I'm sure you will be able to develop your own unique painting style with fascinating colors and mood.
