PORTRAITS WITH SOUL
Painterly Digital Art in the Age of AIÂ
Create portraits that feel alive with 8+ hours of guided video lessons and 40+ videos.
In a world of AI-generated images, learn to craft painterly portraits that carry human touch, emotion, and uniqueness only artists can create.
🎨 You may have felt like your digital portraits look flat—polished, but lifeless.
🎨 Or worried that in the flood of AI images, your art might get overlooked.
🎨 Maybe you’ve even wondered if there’s still room for new artists in a world where machines can copy styles instantly.
Sound familiar?
Here’s the truth: what makes your art powerful isn’t just skill, t’s soul.
AI can replicate, but it cannot feel. It doesn’t know the patience of brushwork, the spark of creativity, or the subtle imperfections that make a portrait truly human.
This course is here to help you reclaim that space. So… are you ready to find your voice, your style, your soul in portrait art? Let’s begin this journey together.
Hi, I’m Veljko!
I go by @vmdrawz on social media.
I’m a digital artist who has been creating portraits for a little over five years. I’ve loved drawing since I was a kid, and even though I’ve taken a few online art classes, most of what I know is self-taught. Right now I’m also studying graphic design, which brings a lot of new ideas into my work.
I mostly work digitally, but I still experiment with traditional art when I can. My portraits blend stylization and semi-realism, with a magical touch and surreal details that bring each piece to life. I like leaving some brushstrokes visible and not over-painting every detail so the picture feels alive and a bit dreamy. Sometimes I even go back and repaint older pieces just to see how much my style has grown.
I see portraits not just as images but as little universes, each face carrying its own story and soul.
Inspiration comes to me from many places such as everyday life, other artists, music, and film. I enjoy blending these influences into fantasy elements that add a bit of magic and charm to ordinary life.
Currently I am happy to offer this self-paced course to guide you through the basics of digital portraits, while showing you how to make your art unique and stand out in the age of AI. I’ve poured years of practice into this course because I know how much I would have loved something like this when I was starting out. It would have made the growth process so much faster. Now, I can’t wait to guide you on this journey!
