Skills You’ll Learn
Bright, Vivid, and Expressive Art Using Colored Pencils
I’m Aellie, artist, and your instructor. After growing up in Korea, I moved to Sweden where I met my Swedish husband and started documenting my daily life by drawing it—and this led me to work as an illustrator! It's been five years since I moved here, and it's amazing to see how my art captures the colors and feelings of my home.
Slow down, appreciate life, and then draw what you love!
Life in Sweden is much more static and slower than life in Korea. This gave me the time to see many things that I had never seen or appreciated before. Like... when you find a pretty flower on a walk, you can sit in front of it for a while and really take it in. Living in Sweden, I have the time to observe every scene and object in detail, and it helped me improve my drawing skills. So slow down, enjoy your life and share pleasure with the world through drawing!
Drawing and sketching is like keeping a diary.
Drawing is like keeping a diary. Instead of writing, you can sketch when you want to remember the special moments, get insight into who you are, or look at something objectively. Express and record your life in pictures.
How to use color to bring spirit and excitement to your art
A lot of people ask me about using color. I’ll walk you through how to find the colors that you love, mix and match each color, and create a warm atmosphere in your illustrations. After taking this class, you will be able to fill a full page with warmth and life.
Portray characteristics in a way that makes your drawing unique
Discover the power of simplifying details to capture the essence of what you’re drawing. People, animals, objects, you’ll have fun sketching them all! When art gets too hard, it can get boring and frustrating...so I'll teach you how to draw in a simple, but fun style.
A warm illustration that awakens memories
I like warm-hearted drawings that evoke memories. Like the beautiful colors of glass beads, old broach, and pearls that I saw as a child when I opened my grandmother’s old jewelry box. I hope you all feel a similar warmth in my class and experience the pleasures of drawing and being able to draw whatever you want. It's very meaningful to create art that brings joy into one’s life :)
By the end of the class, you will see things that move you and feel the indescribable sensation of joy when you lift up your finished drawing with your own hands.

When I recall the oldest memories that interest you in painting,
When I went to the supermarket to follow my mom as a child,
I used to pick up some sweets, go back home, open a sketchbook and draw.
I drew mom and I at the supermarket, a showcase full of sweets I wanted to eat, and dolls and toys I wanted.
Then I felt like everything in the picture was mine.
I think I started drawing pictures to remember those times.
I started out with sweets and then started drawing more pictures to record my memories, one by one.
How about making rich memories with pictures, too? :)
