Being able to draw without the pressure of perfection is just a relief, I'm really happy to found these classes, It's an amazing job to explore and make different things (like drawing upside down, it was really fun for me actually)

I just wanna say your classes are really good- easy to follow and I don’t get bored which is a miracle for me lol

I agree, and I found really fun to do the Picasso without looking, although I almost had a heart attack when I finished XD

[@marypartridge5154]

Do you have classes doing drawings on the computer like David Hockney????

[@GarytongueBetz-vl1fu]

​@@marypartridge5154 Computer drawing and animation carry the same basic principles as Hand Drawing, just applied to the computer.

I never bothered with art because I was an insecure child and thought I couldn't be capable. Been gaining confidence back in my life and decided to indulge myself in this class. I'm having the best time! I appreciate you posting free content like this.

this is a really small thing but i love how unedited, unpolished & therefore authentic your videos are. even the noises in the background at the beginning make me feel like i’m in the space with you. i wish more online content could be like this

This is my first ever attempt at drawing at 53 years of age! Loving the classes with you already 👍😊 1:10:49

Doing this digitally using a graphic tablet as a bloody beginner feels even more difficult. However, I am getting much out of it. I've never really learned how to draw and this course is wonderful so far. Thank you very much for putting it out here on KZbin! ♥

These lessons are just so amazing!! I have always wanted to learn to draw and tried so many times. Thanks to these lessons i am actually making progress. Being able to do it at my own pace really works for me. They are absolute gems!! THANK YOU SO MUCH MICHAEL MARKOWSKY - I'M A HUGE FAN!!!!!

[@shaianrahman1785]

Watching this playlist made me realize how much I love drawing. And it is okay to draw absurd things that aren't perfect. Loving your classes!

[@PaulMcDermott-j7m]

My first time here Michael and I am really enjoying it,,,,,,,, I used to draw many years ago but unfortunately work got in the way, you know what I mean,,, I'm sure you will understand,,,,,,, Getting back to basics is not a bad thing,,,,,,, I will be attending your classes more now I'm retired if you will have me,,,,, Thank you so much,,,, (Paul in Cornwall UK)

I’m so excited Valentina that you are benefiting from these classes! Your comments are very sweet and mean a lot to me!

[@acatthatdoesstuff3307]

I am very glad i have found these classes. I am an artist not really a begginer but it is good to get reminded and have a solid foundation of the basics. This is helping me get back into drawing when depression is not being kind and I need to find a way to express myself and feelings. Geniune thanks

[@burakyildirim6322]

I want to say hi from Turkey!I am 40 years old and I discovered that I want to draw this year.I was searching for where to begin and found you here and I'm really glad about that.

I have just got back into drawing after years of taking a break. This lesson reminded me of a lot of things I previously learnt and drawing has just clicked again in my mind. Amazing teacher, thank you.

[@MarkowskyArt]

I can’t tell you how happy it makes me to read your comment! I think we’re ask just a click away from getting (back) into drawing! Grateful to be able to help! 😃

[@guilhermedeltoro]

Thank you for the classes! You're a great teacher. I'm trying to learn how to draw for the first time after getting a drawing tablet (which is already a challenge to learn how to use by itself) and so far I've found that I draw way better upside down lol

[@MarkowskyArt]

I’m so interested to hear that you are following along with these classes while drawing on your tablet! What a great way to get to know that technology!

[@ripe_avocados]

You totally deserve more subscribers.

[@ablphbt]

Oh my God I love this course! I spent a long time drawing the last one and I really loved how it turned out. When I heard you mention the time your teacher took you outside to tear all your drawings, I completely tore mine apart hahaha... Then I decided to draw it again (upside down still) and I love lovee the new one!! Can not wait to see the next episode of the course! So grateful to you for this!!!!!!!!! 💞💞

[@tahnoyu-ah]

I started off by drawing on procreate, with no experience. I suck at drawing clothes, shading and everything. I’ve always avoided attending art classes because I thought I could improve myself alone but now after seeing your videos, I found your lessons super fun! Thank you so much sir!❤

[@marypartridge5154]

Just a wonderful teacher I really want to learn to paint with you. I like you as you draw dark and are not too fussy about your own drawings. So many on utube just show off how good they are and it leaves us feeling dis heartened. I have some blindness connecting these shapes. Thank you so much.

[@filipedribeiro]

I'm really excited about this course. I'm 31 now and I've been wanting to learn how to draw for years; I have no intention of becoming amazing or professional but if I end up making one art that maked me proud I will be happy

[@DianaJakup]

Thank you for these classes! I love the idea of "warming up", never thought of that. It does feel easier to draw as the session goes on. I often feel paralysed before a blank sheet of paper but with your exercises it's easy to dive into it. Thank you.

[@saitutu]

the BEST tutorials ever! Thank you, Michael,

[@genesisvargas8759]

Thank you very much, you remind me of how important it is to relax while drawing and not get stressed out about it. You're an amazing teacher and artist. And your baby is so gorgeous, happy to see her so confortable in such an artistic environment, she'll be an amazing artist one day for sure!

I just applied for the Facebook group :) I have always been terrible at drawing... to the point of not being able to draw a decent stickman. Now, at my sixteen, I realized that I want to learn at least the basics, and I found this course to be incredibly helpful. Just two videos in, I've been able to make things I didn't even think were possible for me! Thank you for creating such an incredible resource!

Hey! Thank you so much for putting suchan amazing course out there... I have just started to draw and trying to learn it but I was very confused and was going after perfection.. all the time and due to which I drew really less but because of your course I am drawing more and not going after perfection but simply enjoying... I've never done a potrait but today trying to draw a potrait upside down.. was really fun and it turned out better than expected... thank u again.. really looking forward to learning more... ❤

[@NamJin-n8i]

Thank you for these free classes. I appreciate it.

[@Tpig_arts]

Is this is really helpful I mean can you see the improvements in your drawing coz giving that much time should get a better result so once again can you see the improvements and it is really worth it or not?

[@mandyenderle2749]

I was a little scared to really dive in thinking an hour would be too much for me because its hard for me to just sit and draw for an hour, but here I am 2-3 hours later still drawing. I love these so much, I draw digitally so its easier to keep track of everything, and the videos still work great/are easy to follow along
