Creating an illustration is fun. It’s the perfect opportunity to utilize drawing skills to produce art that’s real, imagined, or a little bit of both. But where do you get started? With the online illustration courses offered through My Modern Met Academy, you’ll learn to draw people, buildings, and animals with ease.
My Modern Met Academy launched just a few months ago, but we have three illustration classes under our belt that provide hours of instruction. In our best-selling Architectural Illustration for Everyone course, you’ll learn alongside artist Demi Lang as she shows how to draw buildings in ink and colored pencil. When you’re done, you’ll have a row of three buildings recreated in all their amazing details.
Once you complete Lang’s comprehensive course, you can move on to Melissa De Nobrega’s Portrait Drawing for Beginners. In this class, she starts with the very basics—anatomy—and shows you how to capture someone’s likeness by looking at proportions and other visual cues. Best of all, these skills will translate to analog or digital drawing.
In addition to architectural illustration and portrait drawing, there is Anna Sokolva’s class Animal Portraits in Colored Inks. This is perhaps the most advanced of our illustration courses, but it’s also a beginner-friendly introduction to colored inks. Within the class, Sokolova demonstrates how to cultivate inspiration for your illustrations and how to use color to tell a story within your story. You’ll also get the chance to watch this award-winning artist at work—it’s one of the best parts of any class on My Modern Met Academy.
Check out these courses and enroll in them today. But don't forget—we've got more than illustration. In fact, we have a new abstract realism painting class with artist Dimitra Milan that you won't want to miss. It's available for presale now before it goes live on May 15.
