Instructor Details

placeholder

Aside from being an artist as long as I can remember I started offering a few tutorials on Youtube. Little did I know that by teaching people the fundamentals of art and anatomy i'd begin a new dimension to my career. Being a working freelance illustrator with a youtube channel is hard work, and I wouldn't change a thing. I steadily expanded my work from clients who needed branding to doing work on indie games and apps. i enjoy helping artists and non artist achieve that next level. The road to artistic expression and freedom is paved with hard work and dedication. There are setbacks and monsters to slay , but the rewards are great.

I think that he is a awesome instructor and that I am learning a lot from his teachings I have a number of his classes.

By Robert Teele on 10/15/2020

Very detailed explanations in each segment. Well done!

By Darlene Walsh on 10/13/2020

Very professional, detailed and thoughtful. Honest. Easy to follow and easy to listen to.

By Daphne Tzamali on 8/13/2020

An excellent teacher offers to the students an unparralel learning experience! I'm certain that this course combined with all the others I've bought will make me a better artist in every respect. Thank you!!!

By Chris Lockhart on 7/26/2020

As most of Richs courses this one is well taught. I appreciated the examples towards the end and hope for some more in the future. The course briefly touches on shape language and if I had one recommendation I would say dive deeper into that. Overall though this course will get you the skills to start designing your own characters. Wether that be simply for illustrating or something like game and comic design.

By Kapena Kent on 6/17/2020

Yes the course was definitely a match for me and I appreciate the new insights into character design.

By Eli Binhak on 6/12/2020

I've learned so far about the rules and I love how you get a certificate in the end

By Anna Noland on 5/13/2020
