Draw Stunning Portraits of Anyone with Colored Pencils
Without worrying about realistic skin tones or years of practice
Imagine if you could:
Make a portrait that stops people mid-sentence. More alive than any realistic drawing. With colored pencils that cost less than a cup of coffee.
Sit down after a long day, feel the pencil dragging across the paper, and lose yourself in a quiet evening with nowhere to be.
Feel the perfectionism drain out of you. Pick up whatever excites you. Green on a forehead. Crimson on a jawline. And watch it work.
Slide it into a frame, give it to someone you love, and watch them run their thumb along the edge, look up at you, and go quiet for a second before they can say a word.
You might be thinking this is impossible
A portrait this colorful and expressive? It looks like something that takes years of practice.
Maybe you've tried drawing before. It didn't come out the way you saw it in your head, so you put the pencils away.
Maybe you've never drawn at all, but something about this pulls you in. You just don't know where to start.
Here's what most people don't realize
The colors don't need to be realistic.
Blue on a cheekbone works. Pink in the shadows works. Orange along the jawline works.
As long as brightness and saturation are roughly right, your eye does the blending for you.
You layer one color. Then another. Then another. And the face comes alive.
Anyone can learn how to draw this
Even if you've never drawn before. There's a simple sketching method that works on any face, any age, any angle. No freehand talent needed.
Even if you think sketching portraits is too hard. Portraits are the most impressive thing you can draw. That's exactly why people will stare at yours.
Even if you don't know which colors to use. You build a palette from colors you're naturally drawn to. One student used 19 different colors and they all looked cohesive.
Even if perfectionism usually stops you. This is the one technique that rewards boldness over precision.
Even if you don't think of yourself as "artistic." You need a reference photo and a few colored pencils. That's it.
Hi, I'm Ashley
I've been drawing with colored pencils for over six years. At some point, friends started asking me to teach them. Then friends of friends. Then complete strangers.
I started doing workshops, taking commissions, spending weekends teaching people one on one. I loved every minute of it, but eventually there just weren't enough hours in the day.
That's why I created this course.
For the first time ever
Introducing: The Colorful Portrait Course
✨ What's Inside ✨
Module 1
Materials and Supplies
All you need is a table, paper, and a few bucks worth of colored pencils. This module sets you up right.
- •All you need is a table, a few colored pencils, and paper
- •The workspace setup that lets you draw comfortably for hours (no studio, no easel, no special equipment)
- •The pencil grip that portrait artists use without thinking about it
- •How to get three completely different textures out of a single pencil
Module 2
Color Theory: Why "Wrong" Colors Look Better Than the Right Ones
One principle about brightness and saturation that takes five minutes to learn and permanently changes how you see color.
- •A simple phone trick that reveals which bold colors will work on a face before you commit a single stroke
- •The one principle about brightness and saturation that makes every color available to you, on every face, every time
- •Which colors work together and why some combinations pop while others fall flat
- •How to build a personal color palette in 15 minutes from colors you already love (and use it forever)
Module 3
Sketching Any Face (Male, Female, Any Age)
No drawing experience needed. Grab a reference photo of anyone you'd love to draw and follow along. In about 20 minutes you'll have a sketch on paper.
- •Men, women, children, grandparents. Every face follows the same underlying structure, and once you see it, you can sketch anyone.
- •Think of someone you'd love to draw. Your mother, your best friend, that artist you've always admired. Pull up their photo. In 20 minutes, they'll be on your paper.
- •No rulers, no grids, no measuring tools. Just a few proportion techniques that work on every face shape.
- •Your sketch doesn't need to be perfect. A loose, rough outline is all the colors need to bring it to life.
Module 4
Color the Portrait with Your Favorite Colors
Ignore every "correct" skin tone and reach for your favorite colors. The technique works. The palette is yours.
- •Green on a cheekbone. Crimson on a forehead. It sounds wrong until you see it blend right into the skin.
- •You choose every color. Warm sunsets, cool blues, bold neons. The technique makes any palette work.
- •The 3 color rule that gives your boldness a safety net, so you can color freely without second-guessing every stroke
- •How to know exactly when a layer is done (the line between "alive" and "overworked" is thinner than you think)
Module 5
Finishing the Details That Make People Look Twice
Eyes, hair, lips, background. The finishing touches that make people lean in and say, "Wait, you drew that?"
- •How to finish the eyes so the whole portrait snaps to life (this is the detail everyone notices first)
- •The one stroke change that turns stiff, flat hair into something that actually flows
- •Lips with softness and light. A small layering technique that changes the entire feel of the face.
- •A simple background technique that makes your subject pop forward and ties the whole portrait together
You've seen what's inside. Five modules. A complete system for drawing bold, colorful portraits from a blank page.
The full price for this course is $97.
You're not going to pay that today. And the reason is simple.
This is the first time I've offered this course to the public. I want 50 people to go through it. I want to read your emails, answer your questions, see where you get stuck and where you surprise yourself.
That feedback is worth more to me right now than charging full price. Honestly, I also need to find out if I can handle 50 support inboxes without forgetting to eat.
So for this first group, the price is dramatically lower. Once those 50 spots fill, this page comes down and the full price goes live.

FAQ
Do I need any drawing experience?
No. The course starts from zero and is designed for complete beginners. The technique works specifically because you don't need to be "good at drawing." If you can hold a pencil, you can do this.
What materials do I need?
Colored pencils and paper. Any set of colored pencils works to start. You don't need a specific brand or an expensive set. The course recommends specific products, but you can begin with what you already have. Total startup cost: under $15.
Do I need special or expensive paper?
No. Any thick drawing paper works fine. Even a $3 sketchbook from a craft store. The course covers which paper types give the best results, but you don't need anything fancy to get started.
How long is the course?
Video content broken into 5 modules. You can watch it all in one sitting or take it one module at a time. Lifetime access, so there's no rush.
Is this suitable for beginners?
Designed for beginners first. The whole point of this technique is that it sidesteps the hardest part of portrait drawing (realistic skin colors) and replaces it with something more intuitive and expressive. Students who have never drawn before create stunning results.
What if I make a mistake while drawing?
Colored pencils are very forgiving. You can layer over them, blend them, and adjust. The course covers exactly how. And honestly, some of the best parts of a portrait come from "happy accidents." As one student put it: "It doesn't need to be perfect. It needs to be yours."
I don't have much time. Is that okay?
Totally. You have lifetime access. Watch one module, draw when you feel like it, come back next week. There's no schedule, no deadlines. Go at your own pace.
