This is the best practical online course I have yet taken.

I always thought there had to be rules about drawing faces but just didn't know what they might be. I recently tried the Andrew Loomis method, the results of which were ok for a beginner but still not very good. However this course is a step-change. In a very short time I have learned to draw faces realistically, with some success. Highly recommend.

We're Proud of our Students!

We have students at all levels of experience and ability, but we're all working steadily at the studio toward the same goal: producing beautiful, skilled artwork that captures what we see with fidelity. Wherever they may be on their journey, we're proud or what our students accomplish. Here's a sampling of drawings and paintings by Vitruvian students, all of them executed from direct observation, or "from life".

Part of Scott H. Young's Ultralearning project!

Taking our online portrait drawing course was how Scott Young improved his portrait drawing skills in 30 days! That and other learning challenges are featured in Ultralearning, his best-selling book about mastering hard skills.

"Learning to draw is hard. But it's doubly hard if you don't have the right technique. Using the approach outlined in this course, I was able to get a lot better at drawing portraits in just one month. Vitruvian Studio is my go-to source for art instruction online."
