Full-length Content

From start to finish, the course and classes have every detail you need.

Clear Teaching

You won't just watch me draw, you'll learn my thinking and planning, too.

Debbie's Results

"I've been learning with Emily for several years now and developed my realism skills with her. I'm confident to take on my own projects without help and can use the techniques and theory I've learned with Emily to create works of a professional standard!"

A unique learning experience

I spent years trying to find good teachers and realised the issue: most teachers don't give you tools to go and create your own work after the course.

Well, that's where I differ! I design courses that give you the skills to become your own artist, no secrets.

Techniques Library

The Creator Membership isn't just courses, I have a Techniques Library and a Theory area for you, too! In here, you can become your own artist and take on personal projects.

Pre-made Palettes

If you struggle to choose your pencil colours for a personal project, then dive into the suggested palette area. I have a whole array of palettes for different colours.

Values and Compression

Understand why tonal values are so important and how a scale should be used to plan your drawing. Why do we compress values and how can you?

Fur Techniques

A library of 10-20 minute technique videos that show you how to recreate the correct texture for your pet portraits. These mini courses are great for personal work.

Martin

"Emily has transformed me from never holding a pastel pencil to creating wonderful wild cats that friends want to purchase in less than 12 months!"

Don't just copy.

Learn.

Are you frustrated by courses that show but don't tell? It leaves you feeling confused and frustrated, right?

I don't just show you how I do it, I'll teach you how you can do it. From specific pencil handling tips to colour theory, tone and common troubleshooting issues, you'll learn it all!

Dave's art journey

I found Emily's classes a few years ago and started with her beginners course. From there, I've done a whole range of courses that I wouldn't have thought possible.
My blending and fur techniques are unrecognisable from when I began and I'm busy framing my works to hang in the house!
