If you have a hundred bucks to spare on art instruction, just found out artists network tv is

Including all current and back issues of artists magazine (digital) along with the access to 827 amazing art instruction videos in various media.

I’ve been a subscriber for awhile because I love the instructional videos but with this extra benefit, I figured I’d come to this group and let you guys know because it’s a pretty good deal.

Hope this is helpful to someone!

Oh I should add, the 99 dollars is for one year’s access.

For example, in the soft pastel section, they have Aaron Schuerr, Richard McKinley, Margaret Evans, etc.

My son has wanted to learn to draw since he was little (he's now early twenties), but he's struggling with finding good tutorials. He's already been through a lot of Bob Ross.

Timing is perfect. He’s been frustrated with his progress for several weeks and I’ve had no idea how to help him. Been asking for guidance on how to help him, and I just stumbled across your post!

Additional freebie.

I’ve been subscribing for several years now, and still haven’t seen all the videos yet. Although I do have some favorites I like to watch again and again.

I love watching them on my iPad and pausing and trying to draw and paint along.

Honestly I already thought it was a good deal for a hundred bucks a year, and with the additional magazines, it’s even more of a good deal for anyone who is really serious about wanting to learn more about art and progress as an artist.

I know your son will be so thrilled with the gift, and I bet you will be amazed at the progress he makes over the next year! 😍
