About Pencil Portrait Classes

I teach detailed pencil portrait techniques through online classes focused on creating realistic sketches. My sessions cover shading, texture, and advanced drawing methods for facial features including eyes, nose, lips, and ears.
What Makes This Different
I emphasize mastery of fundamentals while encouraging students to develop their artistic voice. My interactive teaching approach allows students to ask questions freely, helping overcome both technical and mental barriers.
Ideal For
Aspiring artists interested in realistic portrait drawing, from beginners wanting to learn fundamentals to intermediate artists looking to refine their techniques.
Additional Details

My Story
Hi, I’m Shashank. Art is everything for me—teaching, learning, sharing. I’ve run workshops everywhere from IIT BHU to Sunder Nursery, and started art communities and an art materials business. Life ka maza toh travel mein hai (the real fun is in travel), like my Kerala to Munnar bike trip—nature always sneaks into my sketchbook. But yaar, art world can be tricky—scams, copying, sab hota hai (everything happens). I just want my students to find their own voice, asli wala (the real one).
My Work
Art Commissions & Workshops - I do pencil portrait commissions, watercolor paintings, and host watercolor landscape workshops in cities and online.
How My Classes Go - We dive into basics—live art demo classes, figure drawing, landscapes, market scenes. I show techniques, not just theory.
Advice for Artists - Ek baat suno (listen up): Don’t copy. Submit your own work, check if competitions are legit. Art is about being real.
My Art Style - Mostly watercolors and pencil, inspired by Indian daily life—markets, villages, travel moments, portraits with a story.
