Join Lilla plus three of her artists for a fab FREE live event TODAY at 12 noon ET/5 pm GMT and you could win a FREE place on one of Lilla’s courses!
Here’s art agent Lilla! Join her in conversation with three of the artists she represents TODAY at 12 noon ET/5 pm GMT. Join here.
Lilla will be chatting with three of her artists, all of whom are Make Art That Sells students, and asking them questions including:
- What’s the secret to becoming a successful illustrator?
- What is the day-to-day life of an illustrator like?
- What work did you share to get an agent?
- What advice would you give to someone just starting out in illustration?
- What do you love about being an illustrator?
- … and more. Plus you’ll be able to put your own questions to the artists, Lilla will be performing her famous career tarot (always fascinating to watch!), and they’ll be doing a fantastic giveaway.
Set an alarm now and join here – you’ll also find the link to join in our Instagram Stories and on the front page of our website at www.makeartthatsells.com.
