Have you ever been stuck for an idea or had no idea what to draw. Well let me help you. For 6 weeks we’re going to build our portfolios together using a method I use to generate ideas.
If you're an aspiring Illustrator or Surface Pattern Designer or an established artist, this course will help give you the tools to further developer your sources of inspiration to create unique and interesting work that sell.
See this as a fun creative challenge to build your own disciplined practice of building a body of work that is uniquely yours.Â
