15 Best Drawing Courses Online

Choosing a drawing course online can feel overwhelming, especially with many options available on a single platform. This guide summarises fifteen Udemy courses that cover a range of skill levels, from absolute beginners to more focused topics such as drawing eyes, the human face, or the female nude. Prices on the page run from $19.99 up to $199.99, reflecting the depth and breadth of content each course offers.

The courses are listed in a specific order for easy comparison, but the ranking does not imply a definitive "best" choice. Instead, consider your current skill level, the subjects that interest you most, and the price you are comfortable paying. Whether you are looking for a broad introduction, a specialised masterclass, or a kid‑friendly option, there is likely a Udemy offering that matches your needs.

How these 15 courses were chosen

Every course below is a real, currently listed course from Udemy, International Open Academy, matched to "drawing" by our catalog and ordered by our CourseAsk score. Courses whose own title names the topic rank above those only tagged with it.

The grade on each entry scores how much the provider publishes about the course before you pay — the length and detail of the description, whether it lists learning outcomes and objectives — and whether a named university or institution stands behind it. A is fully documented and institution-backed; E is little more than a title and a price. Courses with almost nothing published are left ungraded rather than marked down, because an unknown course and a poor one are not the same thing.

There are no star ratings on this page — the course feeds we license do not include them, and we would rather leave a column out than fill it with a number we cannot stand behind. What we do have is price: these range from $19.99 to $199.99, as listed by the provider when we last updated the page.

What the prices here tell you

The 15 priced courses on this page run from $19.99 to $199.99, with the middle of the range around $29.99 — a spread of $180.00. That is a wide gap for one subject. A higher price on this page usually reflects who is behind the course rather than how much material it contains, so it is worth opening two or three at different price points and comparing their syllabus before deciding.

Who is behind these courses

These courses come from Udemy and International Open Academy. The platforms differ in how they sell: some charge once per course, others expect a subscription, and the listed price is not always what you pay at checkout after a promotion.

Before you enrol

Open the provider’s own page and check three things this comparison cannot tell you: when the course was last updated, what the syllabus actually covers in its later sections, and what recent learners say. Prices shown here are the provider’s listed price when we last rebuilt this page on 18 September 2026 — they change often, and a promotion can move them substantially. We earn a commission if you enrol through our links, which costs you nothing and never affects the order courses appear in.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know which course matches my skill level?
Course titles often indicate the intended audience, such as "Beginner" or "Advanced". Review the course description on Udemy to see if it covers foundational techniques or more complex concepts before enrolling.
Are the prices fixed or can they change?
The prices listed are the provider's current prices at the time of writing. Udemy frequently runs promotions, so the cost may vary later.
Can I access these courses on any device?
Udemy courses are generally available on desktop, tablet, and mobile apps, allowing you to study drawing wherever you have an internet connection.
Do any of these courses focus on drawing for children?
Yes, there are two kid‑focused options: "Ultimate Drawing and Painting Course for Kids" and "Art for Beginners & Kids: 8 Drawing & Mixed-Media Projects", both designed with younger learners in mind.
