An art agent writes assignments for YOU!

    Q: Lilla, how do you know what kinds of assignments to create for your ecourse, Assignment Bootcamp? Lilla: As an art agent, we assign jobs to our artists every single day. I know what clients want to see. What they assign. What they are looking for. Which imagery is hot, which color palettes are exciting, which products are selling like gangbusters.

Illustrating Children’s Books Student Showcase part 10 {Oct 2016 class}

We are so proud of our wonderful Make Art That Sells alumni and are pleased to showcase a series of gorgeous student work that was produced in our first session of Illustrating Children’s Books.
