REVIEW: Rated
4 out of 10
The Goal Of This
Drawing Course:
The publisher’s website promises the
following: “Learn to Draw and Paint Like a pro in just 14
days with MyArtPassion
Drawing Method. You will soon be able draw or paint
anything you want at will”.
Who Will Benefit Most From This
Drawing and Painting ebook?
This drawing and painting course is
primarily for experienced beginners that are frustrated
by a lack of progress. This course is probably not for a
rank beginner because it does not begin with basic
sketching techniques. Also, it is probably going to be
somewhat difficult to follow for children under 10 or 12
years old.
About The
Instructor
Darren Chow describes
himself as a self taught artist with no formal art
education. He spent much of his youth drawing in school
when everyone else was making notes. “When I feel bored,
I draw. When I feel frustrated about anything, I draw. I
just love drawing“.
Darren is also passionate about creating and marketing
websites.
The Physical Parts
There are no physical parts to this
course. Instead it is downloaded as a series of PDF files
to your computer from the internet. The ebook files can
either be read directly on your computer screen or they
can be printed and read from
hardcopies.

The Bottom Line
Darren Chow is primarily a talented and
passionate amateur artist. Unfortunately his lack of
formal art education is apparent in many of his own
works. His drawings often lack the polish and accurate
perspective of true professionals.
The ebook format of this course is not ideal for learning to
draw and paint. Video lessons with a companion support book
provide a much richer experience that goes well beyond the
written word alone. Watching and listening to a master painter
is a more complete way to learn such an intensely visual
subject.
If this ebook sold for $15 instead of $47 it might be worth
it. If you intend to learn from an illustrated book (instead of
a video course), there are other books that are far superior
for less money. For these reasons I cannot recommend the
MyArtPassion
Method of Drawing and Painting.
