"I knew something was lacking in my work, but I didn't know what it was. It was clear I needed to go back to the Fundamentals which improved my work tremendously."
Jarmo Ylitalo
"Gabriele sets his mentorship apart by not only teaching you the essential skills, but also how to apply them in a practical way.
I was able to add a new level of depth to my drawing skills and this program is a great place to start your art journey."

Art Directors hire on competence and reliability.
Neglecting fundamentals will only slow you down.
During Module 01 you will develop a deep and long-lasting, understanding of form, line, color, light, materials and approaches to painting.
Working early to remove these constrains on your understanding is the ultimate way to move forward with confidence.
Learn how to draw any hard surface object/s using perfect perspective and industrial design techniques so that you can draw anything from any angle!
Learn by deep diving into the human body and figure out where all those bones and pesky muscles are so that you never have to worry about how to draw a character from imagination again!
Learn to conquer environmental theory by through timeless principles of composition, colour theory, object layout, photo-bashing and drawing to brief so that you can effectively execute your vision for the worlds you dream up.
There’s nothing like watching a professional show you how to do something step by step.
In our program, you’ll get to see me work through each part of learning the basics. I’ll explain why we do things a certain way and share stories from my work in the industry.
When you join, you’ll get access to over 86 hours of video lessons. Each one shows you exactly what to do, and I’ll never ask you to do something I haven’t shown you first.
Just watching videos isn’t enough to improve—you need to practice with purpose.
In our Fundamentals Program, you’ll get personal trackers to help you meet deadlines and see how much you’re improving.
You’ll also have weekly check-ins to make sure you’re staying on track and hitting your goals.
Once you hit Term 3, week 6, you will unlock full and free access to Proko's anatomy course. We will use those resources (which are the best) to deep dive our character anatomy skills.
When you join, you will receive an invitation to join our live Discord channel where you can chat to other students, interact with me 1 on 1 and keep sharp with things like our weekly sketch challenges.
Early access for my YouTube interviews, insights and other video content before they go live.
Each year we bring on a new professional to host a workshop and share their process with out mentees. These get archived so when you arrive you'll have access to all of them!
That leaves you two choices...
In one year, our tried and tested step-by-step system can help you get closer to your art goals.
Work closely with me, gain confidence,
clarity and SKILLS.
You absolutely can do this!
"I was getting tired with working in solitude and wanted to hone my skills in a way I could not do for myself.
Gabriele provided just what I needed and more!"
Simon Kennedy
"Gabe helped me see and construct 3D forms confidently, something I've always struggled with. He puts it in such a way that it seems easy and doable.
The feedback is detailed, helpful and just the kind of personal learning experience I've always wanted but thought didn't exist, until now!"
