When You Struggle to Apply The Fundamentals in Your Portrait Paintings...

  • You struggle with painting realistic skin tones and textures which leaves your painting looking muddy and dull.
  • You end up with flat and lifeless face drawings, even when painting from a reference.
  • It feels like you are always stuck with the “same face syndrome” and trying to paint the head from a different angle seems impossible.
  • Trying to get proportions and anatomy right feels like a guessing game which ends up with your painting looking wonky.

I used to think that I could draw without the sketch and planes of the head. I'm so happy I found Doodle Warriors, and now I can't stop drawing, can't wait to learn even more.
Everything else I've watched, didn't provide me with structured material, so I didn't know what I had to practice. The DW Academy provided me with a structured plan, and I knew what had to practice next. This gave me the motivation to keep drawing and improving.
I had experience drawing with a pencil, but I had never tried digital art before the DW Academy. I really appreciate how everything started from the beginning and it kept getting gradually harder, without it being overwhealming. It also gave a goal to work towards and that helped me to stay consistent with my practice.
As someone who was working two jobs and had little very time for drawing, learning art felt very overwhelming. The structure in the DW courses worked really well for me and I was able to clearly put aside my time because I knew how much I needed to study and what exactly I need to study. It made the whole process a lot easier.

Meet Your Instructor

I’m on a mission to inspire artists to improve at digital art and help them reach a professional level.

For the past 10 years, I’ve dedicated my life to studying digital art and improving, trying to find what works and what doesn’t.

I’ve managed to make a living as a freelance illustrator, self-publish my own artbook with original characters, launch a successful Youtube channel and all of that without going to art school.

Now, I have one goal: to hone all the skills and learnings from this journey to help you not only improve but also reach a professional level with your art.

This is why I started Doodle Warriors, to create a community of artists who all share a similar goal so we can help each other and grow on this journey together.

Trying to Get Better At Digital
Art is Overwhelming

If you don’t have a roadmap...
Many aspiring artists find themselves drowning in a sea of random tutorials, tips, and tricks that promise instant improvement but deliver little.
This overwhelming flood of confusing advice often lacks a clear, structured plan, leaving artists frustrated and stuck, doubting their journey and questioning their talent.
It's like having a puzzle with missing pieces—no matter how hard you try, the picture never comes together.
