Frequently Asked Questions
If you can't find what you need, reach out anytime.
Do I need prior experience to start?
No. Our Beginner modules teach foundational skills like gesture, line control, and measuring. You can start with “Foundations: Line & Shape.”
How do critiques work?
You submit assignments to a critique thread. Mentors review weekly with time-stamped notes and paint-overs when relevant.
Are courses self-paced?
Yes. Modules can be completed on your schedule, with optional cohort timelines for accountability.
What tools or software are required?
A pencil and paper or a tablet are sufficient. For digital modules, any layer-based drawing app works.
Do you offer refunds?
Yes. If a course does not match its description, contact us within 14 days of purchase for options.
Can I access courses offline?
Videos require an internet connection, but lesson PDFs are downloadable where provided.
Do certificates help with employment?
Certificates validate completion, but portfolios and process documentation carry the most weight in hiring.
Is there a student community?
Yes. We host focused critique channels and structured feedback threads.
How often are new courses added?
We release three to five new modules each quarter across drawing, painting, and digital illustration tracks.
