Do You...
✎ Have a story you've always wanted to make into a comic, but don't yet have the skills to do it?
✎ Want to feel proud to show off your artwork, instead of shy or embarrassed?
✎ Get frustrated by the lack of progress you're making, and want to improve faster?
✎ Find yourself stuck, unsure of what steps to take next to significantly level-up your drawing abilities?
✎ Struggle to find the time to draw between family, work and other commitments?
✎ Worry about how much longer it'll take to draw at a professional level?
✎ Want to turn your passion into a real profession that you can earn money from?
Let's fix this...
3 Things You Need To Level-Up Fast
You want to draw the best artwork anyone has ever seen, but you have no idea how to get good enough to make that dream a reality. There's so much to learn, so little time, and you just want to get to drawing kick-ass characters, epic backgrounds and action-packed fight scenes ASAP!
But you want them to look good, not amateurish.
Most people will tell you to practice and you'll get better - and they're right! But what they don't tell you is what to practice and how to practice it.
What you need is a structured learning program that guides you through the process step-by-step, and gives you personalized feedback along the way so you can see real results fast!
Knowledge, action and feedback - these are the 3 components required to rapidly improve your art, and that's what you'll get when you join the How to Draw Comics Academy.

What Artists Are Saying
"I Saw Results In Just Months"
After not drawing for 20 years, I found Clayton Barton's How To Draw Comics Academy. In just four months I have seen results in my drawing that have inspired me to continue to develop as an artist. If you follow the program, do the practice, and attend the live sessions with Clayton, I promise you will see results in your artwork that will amaze you.
James Fondren ★★★★★
"One-of-a-kind"
These classes have rekindled my excitement to draw. Having access to live demos and days worth of video content plus a community who takes their progression seriously is no joke. This sounds like an ad, but I swear this is the best value I've found in learning figure drawing. You just don't get this kind of experience with anything you buy anymore. One-of-a-kind.
Brent Woodroof ★★★★★
"This is Where It's At"
The How to Draw Comics Academy is where it's at. Clayton changed how I looked at my approach to drawing everything. From the fundamentals of shape and form, all the way to composition and execution, Clayton as an instructor really laid it out for me. I was really impressed by it all. His instruction changed my world, that's why I'm here recommending the Academy.
Ed Foychuk ★★★★★
"Life Changing"
Being able to see someone critique you and give you pointers on moving forward with your art is so life changing. The Academy gives me insight into what I may or may not be doing wrong or right. Hell, last night I got off to lay down and go to bed and ended up on the drawing tablet redrawing the character design from our last critique session.

"Pushed My Skill to the Limit"
"The Feedback & Critique sessions actually helped a lot. I incorporated a full background from scratch (no cheats) and pushed all of my skills to the limits including dynamic action, multi-point perspective, foreshortening, lighting, color theory, and overall composition. The Academy contributed to this significantly, so thank you!"
