Hello, I'm a figurative artist based in Edinburgh teaching both imaginative and observational drawing online and in person~

Perfect! He is amazing! He's clear, so helpful and patient and very easy to understand. He goes above and beyond too. In two sessions he has already greatly improved my understanding. For the best outcome, I highly recommend noting strengths and weaknesses and practicing what you have learned from each session in your own time so it really sticks. So happy!

Perfect! Anyone can be good at their job or be a good artist, but transferring knowledge and teaching requires a different kind of intelligence, patience, and technique. He does this very well, and I am definitely very satisfied.

Perfect! I absolutely loved the first lesson with Mars, it was packed with informations, we analised my style of drawing and came to a few conclusions, how could I improve it.

Mars is very funny, charismatic, but also calm and patient, I do everything my own way and he wasn't tired with it at all hahah. Could feel him wanting to know my art education story and ready to help me in whatever direction I choose to go. Thanks for that!

My style is very abstract, colourful and for long time I wanted to practise some fundamental drawing skills, like anatomy drawing or life drawing, especially portraits. Mars helped me to understand that it's neccessary to have fundamental knowledge of human's body, even if I draw abstract, very simple illustration and it will help me to produce even better art with it.

After introduction, we started with basic head drawing and then we went into details, it gave me a lot confidence and I already know I will use it in my illustrations. This knowledge helped me to create more interesting characters and finally I got rid of anxiety, which I had when I was drawing people’s faces. Even after 1 hour it just got easier! :) He also recommended me a lot of books and tutorial videos, shared what is happening in Edinburgh's art scene.

I came back very very inspired, especially looking at his work’s ethics and art he produces, seeing his sketchbook full of notes and outstanding art is just an art lesson itself.

Highly recommend, great person and thank you for this meeting!
