REVEALED: Find out who won our big birthday card competition!

Make Art That Sells is ten years old this year, and to help us celebrate, we asked you to create a birthday card featuring the number ten. As ever, you blew us away with your imagination and creativity. It was incredibly hard to pick a winner, but a winner we must have – so, with no further ado, huge congrats to the winner of our birthday card competition … Jan Schmidt! The winning entry, by Make Art That Sells student Jan Schmidt. Jan wins a FREE place in our final LIVE course for 2023, Illustrating Children’s Books.

Read how MATS changed these students’ lives

We often talk about how Make Art That Sells courses are career-changing. Today we want to share how they changed the lives of three artists. Sometimes it can be a little lonely being an illustrator, right? Working by yourself for hours on end. That’s why we think one of the very best things about Make Art That Sells courses is – well – YOU. Our Make Art That Sells community. More than 30,000 students from across the globe, from dozens of countries and both hemispheres, who have come together with one aim: to make better art and to make money from doing it. And at the same time, they’ve created something else too: a global community of creatives just like you, who can give advice on works in progress, share tips on everything from which brushes to use to how to format a contract, sympathise with frustrations and celebrate successes.
