Pencil Drawing Made Easy Video Course review
A long video course for people who assume they can't draw and want a proper starting point

Is it worth it?
Most people looking at a course like this have the same story. You've always wanted to draw, there's a sketchpad in a drawer with three abandoned attempts in it, and somewhere along the way you decided you just weren't born with it. That belief is the thing this course actually goes after. The offer is 42 hours of video, taught in roughly two hour lessons, taking you from which pencils to buy through to realistic portraits. The instructor's angle is that he wasn't a natural either, he learned the slow way, and his fix was to stop copying shapes and start understanding what he was looking at (tonal values, how light sits on a surface, negative space). That's a genuine teaching approach, and it's the part most free tutorials skip. What you should discount is the line about your very first full drawing being gallery quality. That's the seller's promise, not a realistic expectation. Drawing is hours in a chair, and a course can shorten the confusion, not the practice. Be clear on one limit too: this is video only. Nobody looks at your work and tells you what went wrong, which is the one thing a local class gives you. If you're happy working alone and you'll genuinely sit down twice a week, it's a well structured path in. If you need someone to answer back, look elsewhere.
Pros
- Teaches why a drawing works, not just copy this
- One payment, no subscription, and access doesn't expire
- Clear beginner to advanced order so you're not guessing what's next
- Rewatchable, so you can pause and redo a lesson
Cons
- No feedback on your own drawings from a tutor or group
- Two hour lessons need real time set aside, not ten spare minutes
- The page never states the price, refund terms, or whether videos can be downloaded
What you get
Access to a members area holding around 42 hours of recorded video, split into lessons of roughly two hours. You start with what equipment to buy and getting a feel for your pencils, then work through tonal values, shading, texture, negative drawing and reflections, building towards realistic portraits. Lifetime access, streams on phone, tablet, Mac or PC. You supply the pencils and paper.
Before you buy
- Check the price and the refund window on the order page before paying
- Budget separately for decent pencils, paper and blending tools
- Be honest about whether you'll commit a couple of hours a week, 42 hours of video is useless unwatched
