I genuinely cannot say enough wonderful things about this course or about Marsa as an artist and teacher. I have followed and admired her work for years, so seeing her grow to the point of collaborating with 21 Draw and creating a course of this quality feels incredibly special. She has always had such a distinctive understanding of color, light, texture, form, and stylized rendering, and this course proves that she is not only an incredible artist, but also an exceptionally clear, thoughtful, a
+ Show more
nd generous instructor. What impressed me most is how Marsa takes concepts that can often feel overwhelming or overly technical and explains them in a way that is approachable, practical, and immediately useful. She does not simply tell you what to do or ask you to copy what is on the screen. She helps you understand why each decision works. The lessons build naturally from one another, beginning with strong foundations in light, value, volume, and form before moving into color, different surfaces, fabric, and facial features. Nothing feels rushed, confusing, or included merely to fill time. Every demonstration has a purpose, and every exercise contributes to a larger, repeatable painting process that artists can carry into their own work. The step-by-step demonstrations are exceptionally well organized. Marsa has a gift for breaking down complicated rendering decisions into manageable stages without making the process feel rigid or mechanical. Her explanations of light, shadow, halftones, reflected light, saturation, temperature, and volume are especially valuable. These are subjects artists can spend years struggling to understand, but she presents them with such clarity that the information finally begins to click. The course does not just teach you how to render one specific object or portrait. It gives you a framework for looking at almost anything and understanding how to approach it. I also love the variety of the exercises. Working through simple forms, fabric, different surfaces, color studies, and facial features makes the course feel comprehensive without becoming exhausting. Each subject introduces a new challenge and gives you another opportunity to apply the same foundational principles in a different way. By the time the course reaches the facial-feature demonstrations, everything taught earlier begins to connect beautifully. You can see how the lessons about basic forms, lighting, value, color temperature, and texture all work together to create believable, dimensional artwork. The included resources are outstanding as well. The reference images, guides, process materials, layered files, and brushes add an enormous amount of value. Marsa’s brushes deserve a special mention because they are truly some of the best digital brushes I have ever used. Her colored-pencil brush has been part of my daily art workflow for approximately two years, and I still reach for it constantly. It has become one of those rare tools that feels completely natural in my hand and genuinely supports the way I create. Her brushes are not included as a novelty or an afterthought. They are thoughtfully designed, responsive, versatile tools that artists can continue using long after completing the course. As someone who already had a deep appreciation for Marsa’s work before taking this class, I came into it with very high expectations, and she somehow exceeded them. Her teaching style is warm, engaging, encouraging, and refreshingly free of unnecessary filler. She respects the student’s time while still giving each topic the attention it deserves. You can feel how much knowledge, care, experience, and preparation went into every part of the course. I would recommend this course to artists at many different stages. Beginners will receive an incredibly strong introduction to digital painting and rendering, while intermediate and more experienced artists can use it to strengthen their fundamentals, correct gaps in their understanding, and gain insight into another professional artist’s workflow. Even familiar topics become valuable when taught through Marsa’s perspective because she has such a refined and recognizable approach to color and form. More than anything, this course is inspiring. It made me excited to practice, experiment, and return to my own artwork with fresh eyes. That is one of the greatest things an art course can accomplish. It does not leave you feeling intimidated by the instructor’s skill. It makes you feel invited into the process and capable of improving. Marsa deserves every bit of recognition she receives for this course. I am immensely proud to see an artist I have admired for so long reaching this milestone, and I sincerely hope this is only the beginning of many more courses and collaborations for her. Her talent, generosity, and ability to teach deserve an enormous audience. This is an outstanding course created by an outstanding artist, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Five stars without hesitation. 🌟LOVE @glowb0t

The course was well presented and well paced. I could follow along by pausing the video on each step and it wasn't super bogged down with exposition. Erica gives exactly what you need, why, and no more. I'm very happy with what I've learned and I'm very excited to apply it to my own work. If you're looking for a way to kickstart your digital art journey, this is a great course for that!

Do the courses teach digital or traditional art?

Many lessons in our courses apply to both digital and traditional art. In a few tutorials, digital drawing software, e.g. Photoshop or Procreate for iPad is required. However, for the majority of lessons it is more about the underlying concepts and all that is needed is a pen and paper.
