What Students Are Saying
I've completed almost every course from Marco Bucci, but this one is just perfect. I was stuck in my art journey but because of this course, I now have a better understanding of some concepts and how to approach different subjects.
Marco truly gets to the point with perfect timing in every single one of his lessons, with excelling quality just like you can find on his YouTube channel. He convincingly shows the importance of the drawing fundamentals in a very practical, dense and yet succinct way.
I'm totally hooked on the way Marco explains things. I've gone through countless hours of videos and courses, but I could spend many more hours learning with his teaching style. I'll never see perspective the same way again!

No matter where you are in your practice, the way I teach fundamentals will change how you see and approach your paintings.
Frequently Asked Questions
For traditional media, any brand of watercolors and gouache will work, though do not recommend student-grade paints. I use brands like Winsor&Newton, Holbein, and Daniel Smith. I also recommend using at least 140lb paper, as anything thinner will not be able to survive multiple washes.

Reviews From Verified Students
Helped me finally build a consistent art habit ✨
I purchased Marco Bucci’s Complete Drawing program bundle. Previously I had tried to get into a consistent art habit to build my skills, but struggled with discipline and focus. I had tried New Masters Academy but found the teaching style a bit dry and monotonous. With Marco Bucci’s courses I was instantly able to engage and get hooked on learning to draw. He’s an excellent teacher, and his down-to-earth approach and evident passion for learning really helped take the anxiety away from getting started, so I could focus on putting in the consistent reps to build a solid foundation of skills. I have completed all the lecture first with traditional pen and paper. I have now got myself an iPad and Procreate and am rewatching the lectures from the start using digital art. Once I feel I have a really strong grasp of these fundamentals, I’m definitely interested in trying out his other courses, and my eye is currently on his digital painting bundle!
Best drawing course out there!
I am honestly awed, but not really surprised as a long time follower of Marco's YouTube, at the amount of material squeezed into a rather short course, as well as the comprehensive way Marco explains things. I have been trying to learn how to draw all my life, periodically, but I always get stuck and overwhelmed (and honestly bored) with courses claiming "150 hrs of video material" but 100 of which consists of me watching the teacher drawing basic shapes like cones in real life time. This is just the right amount of watching and demonstrating to keep my interest and learn at a pace that suits me. Also, I've been struggling with perspective, and watched like 50 tutorials who all say the exact same thing - which I already knew. After this course I finally realize the obvious - perspective grids only work when things are actually lined up parallell to eachother :D Makes so much more sense now. Thanks Marco for giving me back hope I might actually learn how to draw for real one day!
Incredible and so worth it!
Can’t rave enough about how worth it this class is! This course has so many tips and ways of thinking about drawing that I’ve never heard in YouTube tutorials, things that will change my approach forever! Marco explains everything so well, shows processes in real time, and shares definitions for principles and such which I took note of. As someone more focused on character art and scared of/not interested in drawing backgrounds, the perspective section that eventually leads you to drawing a room full of objects and furniture in perspective was fantastic! I had so many aha/lightbulb moments from his insights that made things really click that just didn’t make sense before. Just from my first pass through I’ve gained so much knowledge and I can’t wait to go through it and practice it more.
Look no further
I've wanted to sign up for Marco's courses for a long time ago and right now it couldn't be more suitable to do so. Marco truly gets to the point with perfect timing in every single one of his lessons, with excelling quality just like you can find on his YouTube channel. He convincingly shows the importance of the drawing fundamentals in a very practical, dense and yet succinct way. With his teachings and a conscious effort of imagining, exploring and observing life, I don't see how anyone wouldn't be able to draw whatever they wanted to.
Drawing foundation course- Amazing Experience!

Excellent course
Mr. Bucci explains the foundations of drawing in a very concise, yet detailed, manner that makes practice enjoyable. Excellent course for beginners and a great refresher course for intermediate artists.
Drawing Foundations
Marco explains complex topics in a clear and comprehensible way. This course was exceptional in relearning and discovering new aspects of the art fundamentals. I left the course feeling incredibly motivated and excited to practice more.
Lasting Impression
Mr. Bucci is very talented and inspiring. I've taken some of his other courses and will continue to study them. His mentor course is tempting.
Just Perfect
I've completed almost every course from Marco Bucci, but this one is just perfect. I was stuck in my art journey and because of this course, now I have a better understanding of some concepts and a how to approach different subjects. This course in combination with Color Survival Guide, I think, It can be the only courses that everyone needs.
I'm becoming a perspective addict with this course.
I'm totally hooked on the way Marco explains things. I've gone through countless hours of videos and courses—each one teaches you something—but I could spend many more hours learning with his teaching style. I'll never see perspective the same way again!
