I just created a Pumpkin Drawing Bundle for Halloween! It includes 7 pages of pumpkin drawing skill sheets, pumpkin shading practice, jack-o'-lanterns, and spooky trees. It would be great for an individual as well as a classroom if you have students who are working on drawing, or homeschoolers. You can it here:

Hi everyone! I just launched a new Portrait Drawing Bundle! It includes resources on portraiture, eye drawing (straight on, from different angles, emotions), nose and mouth drawing, and ear drawing. It's great for anyone who wants to improve their portrait drawing in a structured way. There are 10 pages total in the bundle and lots of space to practice your portrait skills.

The link if you'd like to grab it is: debkarpman.podia.com/bundles

Hi everyone, If you are trying to join on Discord, please use this link: discord.gg/GxWasHmh (the last link expired). This one should work but if it doesn't please comment below. I am still getting used to settings on discord so thank you for being patient as I figure it out! I hope to see some of you there. This is for anyone who wants to share your drawing and get feedback - we're going to focus on the weekly drawing tutorials which will come out on Friday (the last Friday one was the first one so you haven't missed anything)

Important announcement!! I’m going to start a weekly sketch demo that you can draw along with me and then upload it to my Discord for feedback. To join go to:

discord.gg/Ke2uH7g8

be sure to introduce yourself once you join the server.

The first weekly demo will be this Friday. I’m going to start with a simple object and then we’ll work up to more complex objects.

I’ll continue to do other content on different topics but excited about this!!

It will be similar to a college level drawing 1 course. But free 😇

See you there.
if you have questions about discord let me know. It’s pretty easy to use. :)
