Course Description

***BRAND NEW COURSE OVERHAUL for 2020***

This is an introduction to anatomy and figure drawing. Drawing anatomy for some is an elusive unicorn that can seem impossible to catch. Books can be confusing and even cryptic. I have the same books that you have and they really didn’t help me improve. Not being able to create can be a crippling experience for an artist. We can trick ourselves into thinking we don’t need to draw the figure and can just “get by” through clip art or tracing. The truth is that is simply not good enough. It’s time to finally slay that figure drawing dragon.  

 The skills you acquire here will enhance not only your own work but give you a solid base to in any other online course or book. There is no "Quick fix" or "shortcuts" to making great art. It requires work. It's fun work and I'm going to show you a method that will make creating your own human figures for games and comics or a client’s work "pain free".  

The skills you will learn will apply to things like character design and turnarounds for games and creating action for comics. It can translate to illustration and digital painting and can even give you a jumpstart to 3D. There are limitless possibilities once you learn anatomy and figure drawing. The only limits are the ones you set for yourself.    

  • ·         You will learn how to draw anatomy without relying on reference

  • ·         You will be able to think like an artist and be a problem solver

  • ·         This is for those that are serious about improving art

  • ·         Keep an open mind and there is no time limit, work at your own pace.

  • ·         You will learn the muscles of the figure

  • ·         You will learn how to pose the figure

  • ·         You will learn to create variety and develop your own style

  • ·         You will no longer need to “search for a pose” or look at another artist's work.

Who this course is for:  

  • ·         Any beginner who wants to learn how to draw

  • ·         Art students (traditional and nontraditional and self-taught)

  • ·         Traditional artists who want to learn anatomy and figure drawing

  • ·         Graphic designers who want to learn to draw anatomy to get more clients and more work

  • ·         Anyone who wants to make their own game, graphic novel or illustrations

What this course is Not

  • ·         Not a "Speed Painting" course

  • ·         Not a series of "Shortcuts"

  • ·         Not a "Watch me draw" type of course

  • ·         Not a "magic wand" for drawing (You have to put in the work)

  • ·         No special software or any software is required. 


I hope you will join me and allow me to be your professional guide on your art journey.

Instructor Details

Rich Graysonn

Aside from being an artist as long as I can remember I started offering a few tutorials on Youtube. Little did I know that by teaching people the fundamentals of art and anatomy i'd begin a new dimension to my career. Being a working freelance illustrator with a youtube channel is hard work, and I wouldn't change a thing. I steadily expanded my work from clients who needed branding to doing work on indie games and apps. i enjoy helping artists and non artist achieve that next level. The road to artistic expression and freedom is paved with hard work and dedication. There are setbacks and monsters to slay , but the rewards are great.

Great course! Love how he explained first and then had draw with me type lessons to take you through but also to be able to understand what you were actually doing.

By Lates Iulian on 11/5/2023

I initially got the older version of the course from someone, but after seeing some of the videos, I really wanted to get the course for myself, which I did. This course works well for me. I find the instructor to give clear and useful information; all you have to do is practice, and you will get better. I have to say that I have some experience with drawing, and I think that you should start this course with at least some knowledge of linework and basic shapes, maybe even a bit of understanding 3D shapes on paper, but other than that, any beginner that wants to better understand figure drawing should watch this course.

By Dan Abana on 11/7/2020

he re-did the entire course just because he thought he could do it better for no extra charge it became a much more thoughtful and "teachy" kind of class very cool!

By Amelie Paquet on 11/7/2020

Amazing class! I rather prefer the new version 2020 of this course. The old one was great, but this new one is just too awesome! Rich Graysonn is a great teacher and he helps us to understand a simple way to do complex drawings. I like his style. His anatomy class is a gem.

Je suis trs satisfait de ce cours car il comble toutes mes attentes.

good

By William Meyer on 9/27/2020

The content is good, but the presentation could be better. Namely, you talk extremely slow. Also this is a little bit of a nitpick, but one second it feels like you're talking directly into the mic and then another second it sounds like you're a foot away from it. If you're gonna be moving around a lot I'd recommend getting a lapel.

By Margaux Mae Quady on 9/26/2020

I love this course so far. Previous art classes I've taken involving drawing figures always assumed I had knowledge of how to draw confident lines and shapes. This course however took the time to develop key drawing skills that I would need later on which I greatly appreciate. Overall loving this course so far and I can't wait to finish it!

By Sripad Joshi on 9/24/2020

I wanted good explanation on "how to do things" and also figure drawing basics so I got what I want!

By Tobi Onabajo on 9/23/2020

Amazing Lecture and instructor, i recommend every beginner should get this course. It builds confidence and pays attention to every detail.
