This is another large set of tutorial videos created by KENZO from London. A bit like Proko, Kenzo started off 5 years ago with basic tutorials posted every week on YouTube; then, there were more structured group activities like the yearly Figuary challenge and finally, an independent web site with courses, scheduled drawing sessions and references. Some Playlists to guide you through the videos.- Gesture Drawing, step by step ( (7 videos)
- Beginner Series: 11 videos
- Figuary 2019: 28 Tutorials

Drawing Tutorials Online
Created in 2008 by Matt Archambault,
DrawingTutorialsOnline (Link) is
probably the OLDEST drawing resource on the net, and the first I regularly consulted. It includes over 400 videos:
many life drawing and gesture examples, but my favorite videos were
Matt showcasing workbooks from his students at School of Visual Arts (SVA).
- Sketching the figure, One hour live stream
- Ten minute Gesture

Steve Carpenter (2021)
Great for portrait and life drawing using charcoal. The Carpenter Art Center Site features about 50 full videos for "members" - with free previews; but a few complete videos
can be found on his YouTube site. There is no structure or sequence to the videos, but Steve has
a reason for his every stroke ; which he explains clearly as he draws.
