Charly has some really good techniques up her sleeve! She’s an awesome teacher. Also I love hearing her sweet voice :)
How I Discovered the Secret to Building a Signature Style
For years, I was stuck in the endless cycle of copying other artists and feeling frustrated that my work didn't stand out. I'd scroll through Instagram, seeing all these amazing artists with their recognisable styles, and think "Why can't I find MY thing?"
I must have drawn hundreds of illustrations, trying different techniques... until I found something that changed everything:
The power of focused challenges.
Instead of trying to force a style, I started setting myself mini challenges with specific constraints. And something magical happened – my style started to emerge on its own:
I found myself more confident picking colours
My lines naturally flowed in certain ways
Little decorative touches appeared without thinking
Certain ways of drawing features just felt "right"
That's when I realized: your style isn't something you need to invent. It's already within you, in all these little choices you make each time you draw. You just need the right environment for it to evolve. And that’s what Portrait Party is all about! ✨
How Portrait Party Helps You Develop Your Style
I've taken my method of focused challenges – and turned it into a clear, structured blueprint for you!
Together with a community of lovely artists, you’ll:
Get crystal clear on how you want your art to look and feel
Use fun creative prompts that bring out your creative voice
Learn exactly what makes your favorite pieces work (and why!)
Spot the unique touches that keep showing up in your art
Create portraits that look like they belong together (and like they were made by YOU!)
Through carefully designed prompts and exercises, we'll help your natural style emerge. No more waiting and hoping it'll "just happen" – we'll actively uncover your creative voice together!
How The Challenge Works
Each day for 9 days, you'll receive:
A short, inspiring video lesson
Clear action steps to take
Creative prompts to guide your portraits
Style-building exercises
Access to our supportive community
All lessons are bite-sized and designed to fit into your busy schedule, while still making real progress every day.
Plus, you get 12 months of access to all materials, so you can revisit any lesson or prompt whenever you need a style refresh! ✨
What We'll Cover:
Over 9 transformative days, you'll get daily assignments and video lessons designed to help you uncover and develop your unique style by working on a cohesive collection of four stylized portraits

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Your Personal Mentor, Cheerleader, and Go-to Girl For All Things Illustration
Hi, I'm Charly! Over my 10+ years as a professional illustrator, I've helped thousands of artists discover their unique creative voice. My own journey to finding my signature style took years of trial and error – but I've distilled those lessons into a clear, guided process to help you find yours much faster.
My illustrations have been featured on book covers, puzzles, magazines, art prints, and greeting cards worldwide. But more importantly, they're instantly recognizable as "mine." I'd love to help you develop work that's unmistakably YOURS too! ✨
My Portraits Have Been Featured On...
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with many amazing clients! My portraits have been commissioned for all sorts of different products, including:
Book Covers
Puzzles
Magazines
Art Prints
Greeting Cards
...And more!
And now I’d love to see you thrive & succeed on your journey as an illustrator 🥰

F.A.Q.
Still Have Questions? I've Got Answers!
I don’t work digitally, can I join the challenge?
Absolutely, in fact I really want to encourage you to use these challenges to experiment with different mediums!
This class is less about technical skills, and more about the creative skills of ideation, experimentation, and finding your authentic voice and style.
What if I can't make all 9 days?
Don't worry lovely - I've got you covered! While the challenge runs live for 9 days, you get 12 WHOLE MONTHS of access to all the video lessons and materials 🙌
That means you can:
⭐️ Catch up whenever it suits you
⭐️ Revisit lessons as often as you like
⭐️ Work through the material at your own pace
⭐️ Fit it around your busy schedule 💪🏻
The live challenge is going to be super fun (nothing beats creating together!), but there's absolutely no pressure to keep up. This is about enjoying the process and creating portraits you love!
Do I need to show up for any calls?
Nope! All lessons are prerecorded, so you can watch them anytime that suits you—whether it’s over your morning coffee or after the kids are asleep!
There will be one live call towards the end of the month where I give feedback on some of your portraits, but this will be recorded for anyone who can’t show up to this live 🙂
We also have an amazing community where you can share your progress, connect with other artists, and get feedback whenever you like. Think of it as a cozy creative hangout that’s open 24/7! 💕
How long do I get access for?
You get access to the videos and course material for 12 months. So even if you're busy during the week of the challenge, you'll have plenty of time to catch up with everything! 🙂
How does this compare to your other classes?
They serve different (but complementary!) purposes in your artistic journey!
My courses focus on the "how" of illustration - the technical skills and step-by-step techniques needed to draw confidently. That's why they've helped over 100,000 students master the fundamentals of digital art!
Portrait Party, on the other hand, is all about the "you" in your artwork. This challenge focuses on discovering and developing your unique artistic voice and style. It's less about "here's how to draw a nose" and more about "let's uncover how to draw portraits that are distinctively yours."
Think of it this way: my courses give you the artistic tools, while Portrait Party helps you discover how to use those tools to find your signature style.
They work beautifully together - which is why Portrait Party students get access to an exclusive discount on my technical courses afterwards, so you can continue to develop your newfound artistic voice! ✨
What if I’m not happy with the challenge?
I’ve put a LOT of work into making sure I create a fun and super-valuable experience for everyone, so I really think you’re going to love it 😘
Still, I believe in ethical business and I would never want to take your money if you aren’t 100% happy with what you get. That’s why I’ve got you covered with my risk-free money-back guarantee. If you’ve gone through the challenge but feel you didn’t get your moneys worth, just shoot me an email within 30 days of purchase and I’ll be happy to give you a full refund! So give it your all, and if you’re still not satisfied, I’ll be here to help 💕
What if I’m completely new to drawing? Can I still join?
Absolutely - All levels are welcome! We grow best when we’re creating together! This is all about building up a good drawing habit. You’ll be in a safe place, supported by other artists in the community. And of course I’ll be there to help guide you every step of the way 😘
I have another question, how do I get in touch?
Holla at me at [email protected] and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can!
You’re officially invited to the Portrait Party!
