"Mike Van Orden is a crazy talented dude and a hell of an Art Coach!" - Rob Liefeld
Your Art Is Not the Problem. Your System Is.
You can see the character in your imagination, but getting it onto the page is another story. The anatomy feels off. The pose turns stiff. The face lacks expression. You keep restarting because you are not sure what to fix first.
That does not mean you lack talent. It means you need a repeatable process that shows you what to build, what to look for, and how to move from a rough idea to a confident drawing.
The Pattern-Based Drawing System
Instead of memorizing every muscle or copying finished artwork line for line, you will learn repeatable shapes and construction patterns that make anatomy, poses, faces, and characters easier to understand and recreate.

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Mike Van Orden
I’m a professional comic artist and instructor whose credits include Marvel, Aspen, and Upper Deck. I have taught live workshops, appeared as a guest artist at Thailand Comic Con, and helped more than 3,700 students develop their comic art skills.
I also know what it feels like to stare at a drawing and know something is wrong without knowing how to fix it. For years, I bounced between references, tutorials, and trial and error.
That struggle led me to develop the Pattern-Based Drawing System, a way of breaking anatomy, poses, faces, and characters into simple construction patterns you can understand, remember, and use again.
This course gives you the system I wish I had when I was trying to break through. It is practical, visual, and built to help you spend less time guessing and more time drawing with confidence.
Here’s What You’ll Master
- Anatomy made simple: Build powerful figures without trying to memorize every muscle.
- Dynamic poses: Create movement, rhythm, and action that feels alive.
- Stronger character design: Draw stylized male and female characters with believable structure.
- Expressive faces: Give your characters personality instead of stiff, blank expressions.
- Drawing from imagination: Use repeatable construction patterns instead of depending on finished artwork to copy.
The goal is not one lucky drawing. It is a process you can use again and again.
