Mark Liam Smith is a Toronto-based oil painter, art educator, and bestselling instructional author known for making drawing and painting more accessible to beginners through structured teaching and social media education. Born in Middlesbrough, England, and later based in Canada, Smith developed an early and obsessive interest in drawing, which evolved into a professional career focused on both fine art practice and education. As a colorblind artist, he often emphasizes observation, structure, and technique over pure color theory, which has shaped his distinctive approach to teaching. He is the author of The New Artist’s Guide to Drawing, a widely used instructional book that breaks down foundational drawing skills through step-by-step lessons, exercises, and visual demonstrations aimed at beginners. In addition to his writing, Smith has built a large online following through platforms such as Instagram and Facebook, where he shares drawing tutorials, time-lapse demonstrations, and educational content designed to help aspiring artists build confidence and discipline. His work has been exhibited internationally, and he continues to balance studio practice with teaching, offering lessons, workshops, and online courses. Through both his artwork and educational efforts, Mark Liam Smith has established himself as a leading figure in contemporary art instruction, particularly in the realm of foundational drawing education for emerging artists.
