Marco Bucci recognized two things at a young age. The first was that he wanted to become a professional artist. The second was that he couldn't draw. This delayed him for quite some time. He filled that time pursuing other artistic interests such as music and writing, but the urge to draw never left him. At age 19 (around 2000-2001) he began to study classical drawing, which led him to kindle a love for painting and illustration. He hasn't looked back since.
Marco's professional experience includes books, film, animation, and advertising. His clients include: Walt Disney Publishing Worldwide, Marvel, LEGO, LucasArts, Mattel Toys, Fisher-Price, Hasbro, Nelvana, GURU Studio, C.O.R.E. Digital Pictures, Yowza! Animation Inc., Pipeline Studios, and more.
He has also been a passionate teacher since 2009, providing over a decade of ongoing free lessons on his YouTube channel, as well as teaching various art classes at schools such as Centennial College, Academy of Art University, and CG Masters Academy. He has experience teaching students of all ages, and all skill levels.
