🟩 Level 1

Level 1 is an easy and fun way for total beginners to get introduced to drawing software and start developing their digital art techniques. If you’ve casually dabbled in digital art before, this class is a great way to explore more techniques.


You’ll build your digital drawing skills step by step and practice art fundamentals using the Medibang drawing app (or an app of your choice if you're already familiar).
