Overview this course

Pretty Drawing Academy by Kris Lauren is a friendly, structured digital-drawing program that meets you exactly where you are—beginner, intermediate, or advanced—and guides you toward polished, portfolio-ready illustrations. The philosophy is simple: pretty art, made easy. Through short, focused lessons, you’ll learn to sketch confidently, color with intention, and add the kind of textured details that make your work feel professional and uniquely yours.

This is a calm, judgment-free studio space designed for growth. Each lesson blends demonstration with practice so you build muscle memory while understanding why each step works. You’re never thrown into the deep end. Instead, you move through a five-step creative pathway—Practice → Sketch → Color → Details → Bring It Together—so progress is steady and visible.

The curriculum is fully digital and internationally friendly. You’ll work with a curated set of dry-media brushes (included), follow along with templates and worksheets, and develop a consistent, graceful drawing style that translates beautifully across devices and creative tools. The course includes 34 concise video tutorials, a library of reference images, traceable guides, practice bow exercises to warm up your hand, and a bonus “fancy frame” project that pulls everything into a charming final piece.

Kris Lauren—an established traditional-and-digital artist—teaches with clarity and warmth. Her approach emphasizes confident linework, readable shapes, gentle shading, and color palettes that feel harmonious. Whether you want to decorate journals, design stationery, create prints for your shop, or simply draw for joy, this program gives you the skills and repeatable workflow to get there—without pressure or overwhelm.

Why should you choose this course?

• A sanctuary for artists at every level
  Learn in a supportive environment where practice is celebrated and perfection isn’t required. The lessons are bite-sized, the tone is encouraging, and the pace is yours to set.

• A proven five-step process
  Move from warm-up strokes to finished illustrations with a method that keeps you focused: Practice, Sketch, Color, Details, Assemble. No guesswork—just one clear next step.

• Confidence through visible wins
  Each session ends with a small result (a bow study, a refined sketch, a layered color pass) so your confidence compounds day by day.

• Tools that elevate your style
  A set of 13 custom dry-media brushes is included so you can match the textures demonstrated in class: soft pencils, grainy shading, delicate liners, and more.

• Resources that remove friction
  Follow-along templates, traceables, and progressive worksheets help you understand proportions, flow, and composition before you improvise your own.

• Designed for digital creators
  From clean linework to textured color and subtle overlays, every technique is optimized for digital drawing—perfect for social posts, prints, planners, stickers, and more.

• Commercial-minded extras
  The included brushes come with a commercial license so you may sell artwork you create with them. That means your class practice can evolve into real products.

• Teacher with cross-disciplinary depth
  Kris blends traditional fundamentals (shape, light, edges) with digital efficiency (layers, masks, brush settings), giving you the best of both worlds.

What You’ll Learn

Foundations you can rely on

• How to hold the stylus and set brush sizes for precise line quality.

• The essentials of shape language so your florals, bows, and frames read clearly at any scale.

• A simple workflow for layers, from rough to refined, that keeps your files tidy and editable.

The five-step process—from blank canvas to “pretty”

1. Practice

   • Warm up with three guided bow studies to train hand control, pressure sensitivity, and clean curves.

   • Explore light and shadow using pencil-style brushes; learn where to place soft vs. crisp edges.

   • Use small timed drills to build rhythm without overthinking.

2. Sketch

   • Map subjects with proportion guides and pre-drawn references to reduce guesswork.

   • Convert messy thumbnails into a readable rough using contour, overlap, and silhouette checks.

   • Apply “construction lines” to keep symmetry and flow in ribbons, petals, and frames.

3. Color

   • Block in base colors with dry-media brushes that preserve paper-like texture.

   • Build depth using two-pass shading: broad tonal mass first, targeted accents second.

   • Select color palettes that harmonize—analogous, complementary, and “muted candy” schemes that suit the Pretty aesthetic.

   • Speed tricks for coloring neatly inside lines without losing that hand-drawn charm.

4. Add Details

   • Elevate your piece with controlled line weight, subtle grain, and crisp highlights.

   • Place micro-textures (stipple, cross-hatch, pencil bloom) where the eye naturally rests.

   • Introduce gentle gradients and edge softening to help focal points pop.

5. Bring It All Together

   • Assemble your earlier studies inside a bonus “fancy frame” project—a cohesive, gift-worthy artwork.

   • Balance composition using rule-of-thirds and flow lines, ensuring the viewer’s gaze travels pleasantly.

   • Export cleanly for web, print, or product mockups with proper resolution and color settings.

Level-based pathways (choose your challenge)

• Beginner: build confidence with traceables and line-follow exercises; focus on steady strokes and simple shading.

• Intermediate: use reference templates as scaffolding; practice proportion edits and selective stylization.

• Advanced: create your own guides; push composition, color nuance, and decorative detail while keeping the style cohesive.

Tactile digital techniques with the included brushes

• Dry pencil textures for organic sketches that don’t look “computer flat.”

• Soft shader brushes for plush ribbons and petal depth without plastic sheen.

• Crisp liners for clean contours that hold up in print.

• Overlay tools to glaze color, unify values, and add atmosphere.

Design thinking for pretty illustrations

• How to choose motifs (bows, florals, frames) that pair well and feel intentional.

• Decorative balance: when to stop adding details so your piece stays elegant.

• Style coherence: keeping line weight, texture density, and color temperature aligned.

Reusable assets & efficient workflow

• Build a personal library of bows, blooms, borders, and frames you can repurpose across projects.

• Smart layer naming, grouping, and versioning so you can revise quickly or create colorway variants.

• Export presets for stickers, stationery, wall art, and social shares.

Everything included to keep you moving

• 34 video lessons covering sketching, shading, coloring, and finish.

• Follow-along templates and traceable guides for structured practice.

• Practice bow drills to warm up and test brush handling.

• Progressive worksheets that break complex drawings into manageable stages.

• Reference gallery to study finished pieces up close.

• 13 custom brushes + tools to match the looks demonstrated in class.

• Bonus project: design a decorative frame to showcase your completed illustrations.

• Commercial use: you may sell artwork created with the included brushes.
