Hi, I'm Marouane. I'm here to help you get started with design sketching or to improve your existing sketching skills.
I value your time and I'm honored that you chose to know more about my courses here on Udemy.
What I can guarantee you in all my courses is that you'll get actionable advice and learn techniques that you can implement immediately and see results. I cut the nonsense out of my lectures and focus on what matters. This is something I know I appreciate when taking a course and I think you do too.
Who are you and what can you do for me, Marouane?
You could say I'm a wannabe surfer and backpacker (34 countries and counting) who loves design and helping others succeed. I have worked as an industrial designer, concept artist and illustrator for over 8 years and online marketer for a couple of years now. The techniques I'm sharing with you have allowed me to live my vision I had as a kid, which was to work as a designer and move from a small suburb outside of Stockholm, Sweden to the sunny beaches of South Florida.
My professional design journey began in 2008 designing consumer electronics for companies in Hong Kong and the U.S.
In 2010 I moved to Italy to study a master degree in automotive design in collaboration with the design team from Audi and Lamborghini and I graduated a year later. Since then my designs have been featured online and in numerous magazines such as Auto Motor & Spo

Very informative
By Noriaki Anzai
It really is a very interesting course. Explains step by step on each video clearly. Makes it easy to understand the process of sketching
By Guilherme Augusto Balestreri da Silva
Yes, it's really nice. I'm having a great approach about rendering and sketching. I'm exciting to learn more techniques to improve my abilities to rendering products... That's what I'm looking for. I highly recommend this course.
By Daryl Croft
I’ve already worked with the techniques shown in the video, but it’s always good to refresh ones knowledge base. I didn’t know about the subtle differences between Photshop and Sketchbook Pro....we use both in my design classes.....some of my students prefer one over the other, but it’s purely choice and familiarity with applications and drawing skills that rules the day.

great course, quite helpful!
By Eugenio Cruz Cornejo
Porque es exactamente lo que buscaba y me ayudo mucho.
By Cemal Cetinkaya
I haven't finished this course but I can say that it helps me a lot to improve my sketching. I've been taking the lectures slowly because after finishing a lecture, I have been practising again again. I am now more confident and I do sketching whenever I found a free time for myself. The best thing of this course is to be updating by Marouane and I think that the designer really wants to help by adding some bonuses. Also this course encourages me. I'd appreciate that. But, I have to say that the duration of the lecturers are a little bit short, I mean I prefer the designer shows more samples about the relevant lecture.
