Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: July 2026

Marina Drawing is a reader-supported site. Some posts contain affiliate links to art courses, tools, and supplies — if you click through and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Why We Use Affiliate Links

Commissions from affiliate links help cover the cost of running this site — hosting, illustration time, and the hours spent testing tools and courses before recommending them.

How We Choose What to Recommend

We only link to courses, tools, and supplies we’d genuinely recommend to a friend learning to draw. An affiliate relationship never changes our honest opinion of a product — if something isn’t good, we say so.

It Doesn’t Cost You Anything Extra

Using an affiliate link doesn’t change the price you pay. The commission comes from the retailer or course provider’s marketing budget, not from your wallet.

Disclosure in Practice

You’ll see a short reminder banner on blog pages and individual tutorials whenever affiliate links may be present, in line with FTC guidelines on affiliate marketing disclosure.
