Learn the 7 Core Skills that Make Your Drawings Look Realistic

It was great, because it was the whole package, not only some small part of all the skills necessary. Great resource for beginners, or people who have tried painting/drawing but are lost on how to get better, 5/5 stars.

Do you dream of...

...drawing anything you see so it looks realistic, beautiful, and shows your own unique vision?

...filling sketchbooks with your original, expressive and realistic drawings?

...Having a drawing skillset that gives you true freedom?

But in reality...

...you feel confused by the hundreds of YouTube videos and tutorials that teach different and unconnected things?

...you know something's wrong with your drawing but can't diagnose what needs fixing?

...drawing feels like a magical skill only some are lucky to be born with, not you?

Hi I'm Felix,

and I almost gave up on drawing in my early days.

After years of trying to piece together what more than 30 different teachers couldn’t explain on their own, here’s what I finally discovered

The problem isn't that you lack talent.

The real problem is that most drawing teachers only know ONE way to draw. Animators teach you to draw like animators. Sight-size teachers only show you how to copy. Portrait artists focus purely on portraits…

The result: You're only using 5% of your drawing ability…

Maybe you can relate to my experience…

❌ I'd spend months learning to copy what I see perfectly... only to realize I had no idea how to inject my own creative vision.

❌ Then I'd dive deep into anatomy studies... until my drawings started looking like medical textbooks instead of real people.

❌ Next, I'd get obsessed with gesture and loose sketching... but suddenly nothing looked realistic anymore.

Every time I learned a new “drawing trick” my other skills seemed to fall apart.

That’s when I realized realistic drawing skills aren’t just a bunch of separate techniques you pick up — they’re part of one connected system. When one piece is missing or weak, everything else crumbles.

Feeling confused and frustrated, I decided to read every book, take every course, and contact every teacher I could find — all for one purpose.

To figure out how to build a real drawing skillset.

A set of skills that lets me sit down anywhere with a pencil and sketchbook, draw anything I see, and create amazing images like the professional artists I admire.

A skillset that gives me real confidence — because I know exactly how to start a drawing, how to build it up, and how to finish it.

Ultimately, a skillset that makes drawing fun, free and clear…

I spent years putting together this complete system from dozens of different teachers and methods — doing all the hard work so you don’t have to.

What Students Are Saying.

"I liked the in-depth explanations of all the materials, […] very useful for complete beginners. I never thought of using toned paper before!”

— Jennifer

“I've been enjoying reading your mails about master studies and how to make your drawings pop, they've been inspiring and I've been able to get a little doodle left and right done this week.”

— Patrick

A lot of valuable information. My ‘aha’ moment was the use of a precision eraser pen to create the impression of light."

— Dorothea

Who This Is For.

You're a good fit if:

✅ You're frustrated bouncing between random YouTube tutorials that never connect

✅ You crave a clear path forward instead of guessing what to practice next

✅ You can commit to just 15-20 minutes per week (less time than one Netflix episode)

✅ You want guidance from someone who struggled with the exact same problems you're facing now

You're not a good fit if:

❌ You're looking for a magic pill that makes you amazing overnight

❌ You prefer academic art theory over practical skills you can use immediately

How The Foundations of Realism Course is Different.

  • Submit any drawing and get feedback, plus clear guidance on which skills to focus on.

  • Learn drawing fundamentals from the ground up with a structured course where each lesson builds on the one before.

  • The Foundations of Realism course teaches you how to practice drawing smartly and get the most out of your limited practice time.

  • Turn drawing into a habit by learning how to make progress in short practice sessions and improve consistently.

  • Designed for self-taught students on a budget. Many other drawing courses charge hundreds for each of the 7 modules covered in the Foundations of Realism course. Here you get access to the full package.

  • This comes from someone who had to piece together the big picture from many sources as a hobbyist — I know exactly what you need because I’ve been in your shoes.

Frequently Asked Questions.

I barely have 15 minutes a week - is this realistic for me?

Absolutely. Each weekly lesson is designed to take just 15–20 minutes and gives you clear, noticeable improvement. With the structured approach, you’ll make more progress in those 20 minutes than most people do in hours of random practice. Everything is self-paced, so you can move through the Foundations of Realism course at a speed that fits your schedule.

I’m a complete beginner, is this for me?

Perfect! This Foundations of Realism course is designed for complete beginners and builds your skills step by step. It starts with the basics — like how to hold a pencil — and gradually moves to more advanced techniques.

What makes this different from other drawing courses I've seen?

Most courses throw everything at you at once or teach random techniques without a clear plan. This course gives focused lessons that build step by step, plus unlimited feedback on your own drawings. It’s designed specifically for adults learning on their own as a hobby.

Is there a money-back guarantee?

If you are unhappy, show me that you applied some of the exercises in the course and I'll refund you no questions asked.​

Is my payment information secure?

Yes, completely. All payments go through Teachable, one of the largest online course platforms, using trusted processors like Stripe and PayPal to keep your information safe.

What materials do I need to get started?

Just basic drawing supplies — pencils, paper, and an eraser. I’ll suggest specific materials in the course, but you can start with whatever you already have at home.

How long until I see real improvement in my drawings?

Some exercises will give you noticeable improvements in just 10 minutes of practice. Most students see real changes in their drawings within 1-2 weeks, and significant progress usually happens after 60–90 days of consistent practice.
