Let me guess…
You love drawing, but often shy away from drawing people?
I get it! It’s so frustrating when you know what looks good (ie. all the artwork you see on Instagram), but you don’t have the technical skills to create it yourself…
Perhaps One Or More Of These Sound Familiar? 👇
You secretly wish you could pick up your iPad and effortlessly create art you’re proud of (and that other people love!)
Drawing brings you so much joy, but you shy away from portraits because they’re so daunting to get right.
You’re an illustrator, graphic designer, or creative pro that wants to expand their drawing knowledge.
You love drawing just for fun - it’s your therapy or creative outlet, and you’d love to get better at it!
Regardless of where you’re at in your artistic journey, or why you want
to learn to draw portraits…
Let’s make that dream a reality! 💕
In particular, I’ve learned that there are three things that most people get wrong:
You don’t need to be born an artistic genius, and nobody is too old to start. With the right guidance and a pinch of passion, anyone can create stunning portraits - and thousands of my students can attest to that!
Drawing portraits may feel intimidating, but in reality there are only a handful of skills you need to learn. The key? Don’t try to learn it all at once! You’ll just end up overwhelmed. Instead, break down these skills and tackle them one exercise at a time.
Learning to draw should feel like an exciting adventure, not a chore. So put away that dense anatomy book and let’s focus on what matters most: having fun! The only way to really get good over time is to enjoy yourself, which is why I put so much effort into making my classes feel like play, not work!
I’ve seen over and over again that when students stick to these three principles, they succeed.
And it’s the main reason tens of thousands of students have successfully learned to draw portraits with Fun With Faces, when other classes, books, or YouTube videos didn’t work. They were missing the most important part: having fun!
So if you’re ready to level up as an artist, I invite you to join Fun With Faces - the ultimate beginner’s guide to drawing quirky portraits! 👇
Ready to dive into the magical world of portraits?
Most people think that learning to draw people will take years. And it’s true… getting to a
professional level and becoming one of the best in the world will take a very long time.
But learning just enough to start drawing GREAT portraits?
The kind that you actually feel proud to show off?
Fun With Faces is your guide to learning to draw quirky portraits in as little as a single afternoon. Don’t get me wrong: you can spend far more time on it (and most students do!) — but this class is designed to start getting you GREAT results right away!
Through 9 step-by-step lessons & exercises, I’ll teach you the core skills you need to know to start illustrating stylized digital portraits: from setting up your brushes, through to anatomy, drawing expressions, adding hair and accessories, and much more.
You’ll practice technical skills, develop your style, build your confidence, and end up with an incredible portrait for your portfolio — even if you’re a complete beginner.
So no more staring blankly at your canvas, wondering where to start. Grab your stylus, lovely, and let’s create some magic together! ✨
Here’s my promise to you: Fun With Faces will get you drawing portraits you never thought yourself capable of!
Together, we’ll tackle all the important skills, one fun exercises at a time:
Learn how to use key Procreate tools & get my best hacks for speeding up your workflow! I’ll also teach you the best brush settings you need to know to improve your linework.
First I’ll teach you the most important rules to get your portraits looking just right - and then we’ll learn how to bend them to create even more fun, stylized characters!
Learn how to bring your characters to life with big expressions and lively emotions! No more boring, flat portraits - learn how to tell a story and give your characters personality.
I’m a big believer in learning while doing! Which is why every video lesson in this class is based around fun, actionable exercises, getting you to practice the skills you learn right away!
Before we move onto colour it’s important to get our sketches right. I’ll share my whole process of refining your sketches ready for my favourite part - adding colour!
Learn how to customize your characters and tell a fun story through their hair, their outfit, and their accessories. This is the step that takes portraits from “good” to “great!”
If any of these sound familiar to you, Fun With Faces will be perfect for you! 👇
I get it! I was the same for years, drawing everything but portraits because they were too intimidating. In Fun With Faces, we’ll break down and de-mystify the process together, and I’ll show you the quickest “hacks” you need to know to get your proportions looking chefs kiss, every time 👌
Stuck in the cycle of starting portraits only to abandon them? This class will be perfect for you: the entire second half of Fun With Faces is focused on guiding you through a complete portrait, from start to finish. I’ll show you how to go from linework to colours to details, and how to actually finish what you start so you can put it in your portfolio!
Caught a case of “Same Face Syndrome”? I’ll teach you easy ways to add emotions and expression that will bring your characters to life and make each portrait look wildly different. You’ll also love the exercises on drawing hairstyles, clothing, and accessories to jazz up your portraits and develop your signature style.
So you can draw from reference photos, but drawing from imagination? If your anxiety just peaked to 1000, let me put your mind at ease - because I used to be just like you! In this class I’ll teach you my best tips and tricks to loosen up and get comfortable with drawing your own unique concepts, to build your confidence and really push your style to new heights!

Hi, my name is Charly, and I am an illustration addict.
I have over 10+ years of experience working as an illustrator, and have built a thriving business licensing out my artwork to wonderful stores & clients all around the world.
When I am not curled up on the couch doodling in Procreate, I’m nerding out over how I can teach and empower other artists. My classes have helped 108,000+ students already, and I’d love to help you as well 🥰
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with many amazing clients! My portraits have been commissioned for all sorts of different products, including:
Book Covers
Puzzles
Magazines
Art Prints
Greeting Cards
...And more!
And now I’d love to see you thrive & succeed on your journey as an illustrator 🥰

📋 Portrait Cheatsheets
Get downloadable cheatsheets to make your life easier when drawing proportions, facial features, expressions, hairstyles, and more!
Still Have Questions? I've Got Answers!
To get the most out of this class, I’d highly recommend you follow along on an iPad, using the Procreate app (the two tools I most recommend for illustration!)
However, if you have another drawing software that you prefer and understand well, you’re absolutely welcome to follow along using that! Though I have a number of juicy Procreate tips for you, the class is mainly about the fundamental skills of drawing, picking colours, and portraiture, rather than specific software features.
This is a class on digital illustration – and while the principles I teach will apply to any medium, you will struggle to follow along with the exercises if you aren’t working digitally.
How does lifetime access sound? 🥳
After purchasing you’ll get full lifetime access to both the class and bonus material, so you can go through everything in your own time, and keep coming back to refine your skills again and again!
No, this is the only place to get access to this class.
I originally released a similar class on Skillshare under the same name. But as that class had gotten quite old and outdated, I re-worked and re-shot the entire class - this is a brand new and fully updated version!
And unlike on Skillshare, you now get lifetime access when you enroll 🙂
Fun With Faces is my beginner-friendly class on drawing portraits, designed to get you drawing quirky & stylized portraits in as little as a single afternoon!
This class focuses less on advanced techniques of drawing faces, and more on fun exercises to help build your confidence. Out of This World Portraits is the perfect next step to level up your portraits once you’ve gone through this class!
The course is entirely in English. If you require subtitles in a different language, please get in touch and I’ll see what I can do 🙂
It’s SO important to me that you’re 100% happy with my products, so if you feel this class doesn’t live up to your standards (though I really think it will because I’ve put so much love and care into it) then I’d be happy to give you a full refund within 30 days - no questions asked 💕
Absolutely! In fact, if you’re a total beginner you’re in luck, because this class will allow you to learn best practices from day 1, so you don’t have to spend years unlearning bad habits (like I did 🥲)
Most likely – yes! As long as you like to draw people, you should find tons of great value in this class. In fact, I’ve designed many of the exercises in this class to help you refine your style. If you’re unsure, you can always reach out to me directly with a link to your portfolio, and I’ll give you my honest assessment of whether I think it’d be helpful for you or not 🙂
Woop, I love your attitude!
