When you join the Artistic Journey

I won’t just teach you how to draw, I’ll show you how to learn to draw.

You’ll understand the “why” behind each technique and how to apply it to your own drawings with confidence.

Understand proportions, shading, and values so you can create portraits you’re proud of.

Go from not really knowing what to do...
To understanding proportions, layering and values so you can be proud of what you create.

Real progress is possible.

Now let me show you the path that gets you there.

 

Feel Stuck? You’re Not Alone!

Most artists face the same challenges...

- Spending hours on a portrait, but it still misses the likeness

- Shading and layering feel confusing or flat

- Features don’t look natural, and something always feels “off”

It’s not talent or passion... you just need the right guidance.

What Members are Saying

You are such a good teacher. You not only teach us the drawing skill but also give valuable advice on how to improve and change our mindset. Thank you so much.

- Zoe

Really learning so much from you. Especially the layering makes so much of a difference. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and the gift you have of teaching it. There are artists and there are teachers, but few are both.

- Kay

Emmy is one of those artists that I followed and ended up coming back to her again as I think her teaching is excellent and very detailed and exactly what I’m looking for.

- Kevin

I think your membership is well worth it. The teaching is very indepth. You are a great artist. I would highly recommend this membership.

- David

 Over the past several months I have worked with a few online instructors. I think your membership is the best choice for me, it is the most comprehensive and the easiest to follow.

- Russel

Thanks Emmy. You are a great teacher! I appreciate the way you go slowly, with clear direction.

- Dara

I’ve noticed lots of improvement and confidence in my drawing skills. I like the methods Emmy uses, especially that she thinks out loud, sometimes shows her mistakes and how to fix them when they happen.

- Rana

Since I have joined, I have improved immensely and I am looking forward to learning much more. Emmy is lovely and always makes sure you are on the right track.

- Julia

Thanks again for your help and your excellent site, in my humble opinion your work is among the best; your drawings are very lifelike but they still manage to retain a unique individual style without appearing overworked.

- Phill

Imagine what it would be like to…

  • Draw your friends and loved ones whenever you want.
  • Feel confident about your drawing skills.
  • Give in to your passion and be the artist you always wanted.

Meet Emmy 

Artist, teacher, and creator of the Artistic Journey membership

I didn’t learn art in school. I taught myself by practicing, making mistakes, and trying again.

That experience taught me exactly what beginners need.

I created Artistic Journey to give you clear steps, guidance, and support so you can grow your skills, stay inspired, and create drawings you’re proud of.

If you want a teacher who understands your struggles and knows how to help…

You’re in the right place.
