The Fastest Path to Art You’re Proud Of.

Glowing fireflies, luminous potions, flickering lanterns, radiant fairies. These fantasy glow effects look like magic on paper, and Lisa shows you exactly how to create them with colored pencils. You will master white primer techniques, dark background layering, and the color tricks that make light appear to radiate from within your drawings.

Four complete projects take you from bioluminescent creatures through glowing potions and candlelit lanterns to a fully rendered glowing fairy. Each builds on the last, adding new techniques for controlling light, contrast, and atmosphere.

Five skin tones, five complete color systems. Lisa walks you through cream, peaches, caramel, toffee, and espresso from first pencil to final detail, teaching you how to identify undertones, layer pigments, and build realistic depth for every complexion. Each module includes its own color chart and homework.

You will learn which pencil brands and colors work best for each tone, how to handle shadows and makeup, and how to build your own reusable color palettes. The bonus ivory skin module adds a sixth tone for even more range.

Everything starts here. This course builds the foundation that every other drawing skill depends on. Lisa covers tools, freehand technique, basic shapes, the grid method, freehand drawing from reference, and creating original art from collage. Each module builds on the last, and every lesson has a hands-on exercise.

You will go from understanding your tools to producing original compositions with consistent lighting and shading. The bonus content includes a 13-part labyrinth ballroom drawing and a 9-part Jimi Hendrix charcoal portrait.

Gold, silver, copper, bronze, pewter, iron, rust. Each metal has a distinct color signature and texture, and Lisa teaches you how to replicate all of them with colored pencils. This course goes deep, covering not just the colors of metal but the textures that make them convincing: smooth, scratched, tarnished, riveted, and rusted.

You will progress from mastering individual metallic colors through texture studies to rendering complete metallic objects like a silver apple, gold ribbon, and bronze medallion. Every module includes homework and practice assignments.

This is the complete colored pencil foundation course. Lisa covers everything from calibrating your pencils and understanding color terms to advanced shading techniques, color combos, mood, light and shadow, and a guided final project. If you are picking up colored pencils for the first time or want to fill in the gaps in your self-taught technique, this is where to start.

Each module includes practice pages and exercises. The final project brings everything together with a complete turtle rendering from light source setup to finished piece. Bonus content includes a 12-part Heart of the Ocean portrait and an 11-part realistic red rose.

From house cats to lions, this course covers everything you need to draw realistic felines. Lisa starts with anatomy and movement, teaching you to sketch cats in graphite, charcoal, and colored pencils. You will learn facial geometry for both domestic and wild cats, then move into rendering different fur types before tackling big cats like ocelots, snow leopards, and lions.

The final project brings it all together with a hyper-realistic tiger rendered in mixed media. Each module includes homework, guided practice, and drawing assignments.

Three different light effects, three complete projects. Lisa teaches you how to create the illusion of glowing light on paper using colored pencils, starting with delicate twinkle lights, moving through soft bokeh backgrounds, and finishing with vibrant neon glow. Each project builds on specific layering and blending techniques that make light appear to radiate from within your drawing.

You will learn why toned paper matters, how to use white charcoal as a foundation layer, and the color sequencing that creates convincing glow effects at any intensity.

No water needed. Lisa teaches you how to achieve the soft, flowing look of watercolor painting using only colored pencils. Starting with a Zen temple scene, you will learn the shading strategies, gradient transitions, layering techniques, and pooling effects that create a convincing watercolor illusion. Then you will apply those techniques to flowing robes, skin tone, and lighting.

Three modules build from background technique through fabric and figure, finishing with a complete illustration that looks like it was painted with a brush.
