Testimonials
"First of all I want to say thank you to Danielle for opening my eyes on the magic of pastel pencils! This tiger is my first full drawing with pastels and I can't even begin to tell how happy I'm to discover this path.
This drawing has a special meaning in my growth as an artist as well in my confidence. I picked up pencils for the first time in my life just a year ago, and it was my dream to be able to draw animals, especially big cats. That dream is coming true....I'm eager to learn more!
Thank you, Danielle, for sharing your knowledge and skills!"

"I have been a member of Danielle's tutorial group for only a couple of months. In this time I have completed 3 beautiful pastel drawings. I am not a beginner but wanted to expand my knowledge of pastel painting. I have learnt so much in this short time, including new techniques that I will continue to use. I am so grateful to Danielle for bringing my artwork back to life! I would highly recommend joining, the tutorials are easy to follow and you will learn so much​."

"Absolutely loving the tutorials so far, you're making it feel so manageable and I also like the motivational comments along the way as I definitely notice myself wanting to withdraw when things are not perfect!
I've just finished your tiger tutorial and thought it was absolutely brilliant!! Your tiger was absolutely stunning. You make it seem so simple and I genuinely can already see an improvement in my art."

FAQ
I have never drawn/used pastel pencils before, will the videos be suitable for me?
If you are a new to pastels then I recommend that you start with the Silver tier videos. You can then get a feel for pastel and move onto the more advanced Gold/Platinum tutorials once you feel more confident!
​
How much does it cost?
Depending on which tier you choose, prices are between £5 and £20 (+VAT) per month. You are welcome to cancel anytime.
​
Can I cancel if I change my mind?
You are welcome to cancel at anytime. Please note that you will be billed each month on the date that you joined e.g. if you joined on the 14th January, you will next be billed on the 14th February and so on.
What materials will I need?
You can find a full list of the recommended materials needed in the description of each video. If you would like a materials list for a specific tutorial in advance of joining, then just get in touch!
​
What languages are the videos in?
All tutorials are spoken in English. Subtitles are available on my most recent videos but unfortunately unavailable on the older tutorials.
​​
Are the videos available to download?
Tutorials are not available for download. However, they will remain accessible on my Patreon account indefinitely, so you can watch them at your convenience.
​
Am I allowed to share and sell my progress/finished drawings?
Yes! I ensure that all of the reference photos we use in the tutorials are royalty free which means you are welcome to do whatever you’d like with your drawing. (A credit is of course always appreciated but not essential.)​
​​
Can I connect with other students?
Yes of course! Once you purchased a tutorial, you will have access to the private Facebook group where students can share their work and get to know each other. It’s a really lovely and friendly community!
