Create Stunning Fish Illustrations In A Single Weekend
(Even if you’ve never drawn anything in your life)
In just one weekend, you’ll go from a blank page to a set of finished fish illustrations you’ll actually be proud of.
Imagine this…
Imagine picking up a pen on a Saturday morning and, by Sunday afternoon, holding a finished illustration so detailed and striking that your friends stop and ask where you bought the print… and you get to say: “I made it.”
Imagine having a creative practice that needs nothing but a pen and a piece of paper. No expensive supplies. No special studio. No setup. Just a quiet hour, a blank page, and something beautiful taking shape under your hand.
Imagine looking at a set of finished fish illustrations and knowing you made every single one of them — pieces detailed enough that people can’t believe you drew them yourself.
Once you learn the system, you can draw any fish you can imagine!
Each fish has its own patterns, its own personality — and you’ll learn to draw all of them.
Have you ever seen something like this and thought:
“I would absolutely love to be able to make that…”
So you sit down and try. You grab a pen. You look at a fish photo. You start drawing.
And what comes out… doesn’t look anything like what you had in your head.
So you do what most people do. You go to YouTube. You find a tutorial. You follow along as best you can. But the person on screen moves fast, and assumes you already understand things they never explain, and by the time you’re halfway through you’re already lost.
You try again the next day. And the day after. Weeks go by. The drawings get a little better, maybe. But that feeling — that gap between what you can see so clearly in your imagination and what actually appears on the page — never quite closes.
And eventually, quietly, you arrive at the thought that so many people arrive at:
“Maybe I just don’t have the talent for this.”
But here’s the truth about this
But what if that thought was simply… wrong?
Not because you haven’t tried hard enough. Not because you need more practice. But because you’ve been learning drawing backwards — picking up isolated techniques without ever being given a clear, logical process to follow from the very beginning.
These illustrations look like they require years of skill. The detail looks complex. The linework looks effortless. It feels like something you either have or you don’t.
But here’s what nobody tells you: every one of those illustrations is built from a handful of simple marks, applied in a specific order. That’s it. There’s no magic. No innate gift. Just a process that, once you understand it, makes the whole thing feel completely achievable.
All you need is something to draw with, a piece of paper, and someone to walk you through that process step by step. And that’s exactly what I’m here to do.
But first…
All you need is a pen, a piece of paper, and the process. That’s it.
Let me introduce myself…
Hey there! I’m Alexia.
I’m not a trained artist. And for a long time, I genuinely believed I just wasn’t a creative person.
When I was little, my parents enrolled me in drawing classes at a local art academy. I was excited, I showed up, I tried — but somewhere along the way, surrounded by kids whose drawings seemed to come so naturally, I started to feel like I was missing something everyone else had.
So I quit. And I didn’t draw again for years.
Years later, I picked it up again. Slowly — just sketching things here and there, no classes, no pressure, no one to compare myself to. And somewhere in that quietness, I realised I actually liked this. That the thing I’d written off as a kid was something I genuinely wanted to do.
Drawing is part of my life now in a way I never expected it to be.
I built this workshop because the process that worked for me is simple — and I think it works precisely because it doesn’t ask you to be talented. It just asks you to show up and follow along.
So join me and let’s start drawing together.
Introducing…
The Fish Illustration Collection
A complete beginner’s workshop in fish illustration — five stunning drawings, one weekend.
Here’s A Small Taste Of What’s Inside:
Module 1: The Right Start. Everything you need — and nothing you don’t
Get set up in five minutes so you can spend the rest of your time actually drawing.
- The exact fine liner and paper to buy — specific brands, specific sizes, no art supply store overwhelm. You can get everything at a supermarket or order it tonight.
- Why your paper matters more than your pen — and the one thing to look for that changes how every mark sits on the page
- The pencil grip that makes your sketch lines easy to erase — so you’re never stuck with marks underneath your ink that won’t come out
- How to find a good reference photo for any fish you want to draw — and the one thing to check before you start sketching
Module 2: Your First Marks. The six marks that make every illustration in this workshop possible
These aren’t techniques you’ll spend months learning — they’re a small, specific set of marks you can practise in a single session and use immediately.
- The six mark-making techniques you’ll return to in every single illustration — straight lines, curves, dots, organic shapes, filled areas, and line weight variation
- A warm-up sequence that loosens your hand before you draw anything — so your first marks feel relaxed rather than stiff and forced
- How varying the pressure on your pen creates two completely different marks — and why understanding this changes the way every illustration feels
- Why slightly imperfect lines look better than straight ones — and how to start making that work for you instead of against you
Module 3: A complete beginner’s fish illustration from blank page to finished piece
Follow the complete step-by-step process from blank page to finished illustration. Every decision explained. Every mark motivated.
- Building the silhouette first: why starting with the outer shape before any interior detail is the key to an illustration that holds together
- The pattern-filling method that lets you draw intricate body markings without ever losing control of the overall form
- How to place your darkest marks so the fish gains instant volume and presence on the page
- Fin linework: the specific stroke sequence that makes fins look light, layered, and alive
Module 4: Your Complete Collection. Four more fish, four distinct approaches
Draw your remaining four fish — each one chosen deliberately to stretch a different part of what you’ve learned. Geometric pattern, organic texture, bold contrast, refined linework.
- Geometric pattern work: how to draw bold, graphic shapes that stay crisp and clean across a whole body
- Learn the layering sequence for organic spot textures — the order of marks that makes natural markings look effortless, not laboured
- Negative space: why the white areas you leave untouched are just as important as every mark you make
- How to fill a large area with repeating pattern without it becoming monotonous or losing its energy
The workshop price is:
$97
But that’s not the price you’ll be paying today.
You see…
This page was initially offered as a test to make sure people enjoyed the workshop. Since then, 100’s of students from around the world have enjoyed this course!
The responses from them have been overwhelmingly positive. And many of them appreciated the low price.
So in an effort to keep this affordable, when everything else in the world seems to be getting more expensive…
I will continue to offer the workshop for less than HALF of that price.
So, for a limited time remaining… you can grab it for just $97 $47
But a quick heads-up…
This special offer might close soon.
Depending on the workload and time I have to commit to this, I may raise the price or take it down altogether.

And to help you go even further…
I want to make sure that once you finish your five fish illustrations, you know exactly where to go next. So I’ve put together three extra resources to keep you drawing — and to make your finished pieces look as good as they possibly can.

Also take this final MEGA bonus while you still can…
MEGA Bonus: Colour Your Collection — An Introduction to Watercolour Washes Over Ink
Everything you need to know to add soft, beautiful colour to your finished fish illustrations. No prior watercolour experience needed.
- How much water is the right amount: the single most important variable in watercolour, explained simply
- The colour palette that works best over black ink illustrations — and the combinations that tend to clash
- How to apply a wash so it stays fresh and transparent, without losing the crispness of your linework underneath
- When to stop: the moment to put your brush down so the illustration stays luminous and doesn’t go flat
I have to tell you about this bonus because it’s one of my favorites — and it’s exactly what you’ll be ready for once you finish your last fish illustration.
The Colour Your Collection MEGA bonus shows you how to take the finished ink drawings you’ve just created — the linework, the textures, the patterns — and breathe something completely new into them with soft watercolour washes.
It’s the natural next step: from crisp black ink on white paper to illustrations that feel warm, alive, and full of colour. The kind of pieces that stop people in their tracks.
You’ll learn how to choose the right colours, how to mix and apply a wash without muddying your linework, and how to let the ink and the paint work together so each illustration looks luminous — not overworked.
If you’ve ever looked at a watercolour illustration and thought, “How does it manage to feel both detailed and effortless at the same time?” — this is how.
But here’s the thing: this bonus isn’t sticking around. It’s only available if you join before the timer runs out.
So if you’re excited to finish your fish collection — and then take it one beautiful step further — scroll down and join now.
I can’t wait to see what yours looks like in colour.
