Author Biography

Marco Bucci was not artistically gifted as a child. In fact, he just plain couldn’t draw. He only began his serious study of drawing at the age of 19, when he read that it’s actually possible to learn. This news was a revelation, since Marco (like many people) believed one had to be born with a special talent. But through being exposed to the right kinds of information and practice, Marco now makes a living as a professional artist, working on everything from feature films, to commercials, games, book covers, children’s book illustration, and television with such companies as Walt Disney Publishing Worldwide, LEGO, LucasArts, Mattel Toys, Fisher-Price, and Hasbro. Marco teaches through his own platform, through other online schools, such as Proko.com and CG Master Academy, and has taught at several art colleges, both physical and online. He lives in Toronto, Canada.
