  As a veteran Domestika teacher, Jean begins the course sharing a different side of his artistic journey. He explains that his abilities didn’t come naturally, but rather through consistent practice. With time and dedication, he developed the skill set that led him to become a concept artist of a leading animation studio in Mexico.  Go through the fundamentals of drawing and learn about Jean’s approach to drawing. Jean breaks down the complexity of drawing by demonstrating how everything is composed of various simple shapes. Begin your digital illustration as you practice drawing different shapes while keeping angles and proportions in mind.  Next, learn about perspective and how to convert a two-dimensional drawing into 3D by adding another axis. Explore the concept of a horizon in your illustration before learning about vanishing points and converging lines. Apply the previous concepts into drawing architecture and the human body from observation. Then, learn how to apply light and shadow to your sketches.  Take your illustrations to the next level by adding your own design. Jean explains three principles of design to apply to your drawings: layering, the rule of 3, and counterbalancing. Discover Jean’s creative process when drawing from imagination based on a theme or concept. Wrap up the course by learning other illustration techniques like duplicating, reshaping, exaggeration, and deforming that you can apply to your artwork.
