Synopsis

An essential guide for a new generation of artists to learn professional-level art skills—no student loan required!

Now a successful artist, illustrator, and YouTube star, Marco Bucci once thought you had to be born with art talent and go to an expensive art school to have a career in art. Unfortunately, he couldn’t draw and didn’t get into art school, but he heard that drawing was something you could learn anyway, so he set off on a self-guided journey of becoming an artist. In Debt-Free Art Degree: Foundations in Drawing, Marco shares what he learned to help you become a successful artist without experiencing the same false starts and setbacks he did.

• Advice and encouragement to develop your personal artistic vision while building foundational skills

If you want to learn to draw, but can’t afford the high price of in-person lessons, Debt-Free Art Degree: Foundations in Drawing is the guide to have at your side.

The Debt-Free Art Degree series is your gateway to a thorough and budget-friendly art education. While you won’t have a diploma to hang on your wall, you will have all the tools you need to create incredible art.

About this title

About the Author

Marco Bucci was not artistically gifted as a child. In fact, he just plain couldn’t draw. He only began his serious study of drawing at the age of 19, when he read that it’s actually possible to learn. This news was a revelation, since Marco (like many people) believed one had to be born with a special talent. But through being exposed to the right kinds of information and practice, Marco now makes a living as a professional artist, working on everything from feature films to commercials, games, book covers, children’s book illustration, and television with such companies as Walt Disney Publishing Worldwide, LEGO, LucasArts, Mattel Toys, Fisher-Price, and Hasbro. Marco teaches through his own platform and through other online schools, such as Proko.com and CG Master Academy, and has taught at several art colleges, both in person and online. Marco’s clear, engaging instruction has received incredible endorsements from his students and subscribers. Marco is the author of Debt-Free Art Degree: Foundations in Drawing. He lives in Claremont, Ontario, near Toronto, Canada.
