Featured Student Artworks

Check out the cuddly badger characters created by DrawPj students studying my new course ‘Coloured Pencil Character Drawing Secrets’.

In this gallery we present a selection of outstanding recent artworks created by students who are either currently studying the Complete Online Drawing Course or who have graduated from the course and are now applying their skills to their own artworks.

Here’s a stunning drawing of our optional shading project ‘The Holiday’ created by Alina Claudia who is studying our course as a self-teach student.

This is the final project for the perspective section of our course and Denise has really created a fabulous artwork here.

In this showcase you can see the works by the amazing DrawPj.com mentored student Avril Parkes who has studied under the careful eye of her DrawPj Certified instructor Tannis Trydal.

Susanne has shown that she has really grasped the principles presented in our course. There are beautiful gradations, soft edges, hard edges and stunning colour changes in her work.

Marta has travelled through our course so beautifully and along the way she created original pieces of her own.

Liesbeth creates gorgeous drawings (often portraits of family members) as she reinforces all that she learned at DrawPj.com.

Ryan is making massive progress in a very short space of time.

Janet is now creating many commissioned artworks and selling internationally!  She is constantly busy with her pet portraits and can barely keep up with the demand.

This coloured pencil landscape drawing was created by our mentored student Helen Hanby from her own reference photograph.

Deepti Mohile has progressed through the DrawPj Mentoring Program and has now created stunning images of birds.

Take a look at this stunning drawing of our ‘Shoe Well-travelled’ project from the shading and form section of our course.
