Zoe Ingram on Make Art That Sells Illustrator and Make Art That Sells student Zoe Ingram was the winner of the 2013 Global Talent Search from Lilla Rogers Studio.  She got in touch to let us know how things had been going since she won the competition and landed representation with Lilla. Hi Lilla, I’m just popping in to share a little post Global Talent Search update. I thought It would be good to share a bit of my experience so far. It’s been almost two months since the end of the Global Talent Search, and I think I’m finally getting my head around what just happened to me! I can only describe the experience  as a roller coaster ride. There was the thrill of starting work on a new brief, and then the nervous wait after submitting, and then the elation at hearing that I’d advanced to the next

Linda Ketelhut shares her Joshua Tree sketchbook Illustrator Linda Ketelhut was previously represented by Lilla Rogers. She sent this message from her trip to Joshua Tree National Park. Hi Lilla, I’ve had a growing obsession with succulents since I first set eyes on one. I thought I could be satisfied with a casual purchase at the local nursery or a quick photograph while out on a walk … And then I went to Joshua Tree. To some, a beautiful park to go camping and rock climbing. To me, a vegetation wonderland. Cacti, algae, desert shrubs, wildflowers … h e a v e n. I was in awe discovering the different varieties of cactus in this stunning terrain. It was one of those weekends that left me feeling renewed and inspired – and more than ever wanting to channel my adoration into art. I thought I’d share a photo diary of

John Coulter in Anthology magazine

JOHN COULTER for Anthology magazine

Illustrator JOHN COULTER shares his process Hi Lilla, I recently had the pleasure of working with Anthology magazine’s amazing creative director, Meg Mateo Ilasco, on the Summer 2013 issue: “Home is where the Art is.” I was asked to do an illustrated map of Rio de Janiero.   This was a very gratifying job. I did copious amounts of research online for each neighborhood featured, in an effort to get the flavor of each one.   I recently showed the map to a friend living in Rio, and he said, “Looks to have been done by somebody only with a native knowledge. Just showed my brother in law (native Carioca) and he was thoroughly impressed as well.” I have attached some of my preliminary sketches, lettering experiments, details and the final. Obrigado, – John

  How I created my mural by illustrator Allison Cole Illustrator Allison Cole, who was previously represented by Lilla Rogers, writes: I was recently invited to participate in a group show at Montserrat College of Art in Beverly, MA, called Seven: A Performative Drawing Project. Seven different artists were each given one of the seven walls of the main gallery to paint or draw on. The whole process was recorded with a digital camera taking photos at different intervals that will eventually be compiled into a stop-motion video, recording each artist’s process. It was a tremendous opportunity and I was honored to be invited to participate.
