Here at 21 Draw we have heaps of amazingly talented artists contributing to our courses and books. These artists are always bringing out stunning new work. So today I have gathered some of their latest awesome designs for you to check out! 

Aveline Stokart (@aveline_stokart)

First, we have the work of visual development artist Aveline Stokart, whose “Mastering Lighting and Shading” course has become a massive hit on our site! The skills taught in this course can clearly be seen in Aveline’s gorgeous digital character designs above. Aveline’s work is extremely effective at capturing a character’s emotions and through this grabbing the viewer’s attention. For any artists looking to improve the expressiveness of their character, I think Aveline’s work is definitely worth checking out for inspiration!

Laia Lopez @itslopez

Based in Barcelona, amazing illustrator Laia Lopez has grown a huge online following for her beautiful character illustrations. Her use of gorgeous pencil-like line work to create eye-catching and brightly colored digital artworks is really inspiring! If you enjoy absolutely adorable fanart and super detailed character drawings Laia’s Instagram is definitely worth a follow. Laia made an inspiring course titled “Digital Illustration for Beginners” which has over 200 student reviews and includes great student material! This course will teach you everything an artist needs to know about their Wacom tablet- and how to create amazing illustrations using it!
