I thought it would be really fun to pull a handout from the Illustrating Children’s Books course (which starts today!) and give it to you now so you could get started early. Download your free copy here.
I made this unique handout for you specifically to help you choose which text to illustrate for the course. It focuses on examining your personality type, art style, and preferred art media.
Let me give you some background about how I teach. One of the things that distinguishes my e-courses is that I’ve taught or mentored artists for four decades. I pride myself on knowing how to teach artists.
It’s about deeply inspiring the artist so they dive right in.
It about giving plenty of structure so they know where to go next.
It’s about breaking things down into tiny bites so that the student feels a greater sense of calm.
I understand procrastination and perfectionism, which are very common among artists. Can you relate to that? I can, because as a former illustrator, I grappled with all of these things, and learned ways to not just overcome them, but to thrive in a full-time, lucrative and fun art career for over a decade. That’s why I care about helping you. I want you to succeed.
I was delighted that one of my students, Asma Enayeh, created this charming 1 minute video about her experience in class.
