Lilla Rogers

Many people already know me as an art and art/literary agent and former illustrator, but I’ve spent almost four decades in the creative industry as a highly successful creative entrepreneur whose roles have included author, speaker, ecourse co-founder, and more.

I spent the 1980s working in NYC as a full-time, highly successful illustrator, with clients including the New York Times Magazine, Vogue magazine, the Grammies, the program for Philip Glass’s new opera at Brooklyn Academy of Music, and many more.

I then went on to found Lilla Rogers Studio, a visionary art agency that represents over three dozen artists from around the world and has sold art for products worth over $300 million. We have licensed artwork on a huge variety of products, including best-selling children’s books, home décor, major ad campaigns, magazines, wall décor, and greetings cards, and our client list includes Crate & Barrel, Chronicle, the New York Times, Blue Q, Godiva, Barneys New York, Warner Brothers, IKEA, Target, Paperchase, Anthropologie, and hundreds more.

I am a trusted mentor to internationally renowned artists, have lectured at venues such as ICON: the Illustration Conference, Printsource NY, the Creative Connection Event, art colleges and corporations, and am frequently interviewed for my expertise as an agent, trendsetter, and artist. 

I have written a best-selling book, I Just Like to Make Things, and currently write a column for Uppercase magazine.

I have also done psychic readings for hundreds of people over several decades.

In 1985, I studied tarot and astrology for a year with psychic Jean Neimiller in New York, who saw something in me, and had me do readings for some of her clients. She then encouraged me to audition for the monthly psychic fair at the Doral Hotel, Lexington Ave, NYC, which I did, and became a regular reader. I then worked as a professional psychic in New York through the 1980s while getting my illustration career off the ground.

1991, I taught a Psychic Buffet class in Brooklyn, which consisted of astrology, palmistry, crystals, tarot, past lives. 

I’ve been completely obsessed with doing live Zoom readings for students in my Make Art That Sells courses, using my own creative career deck, and this has become a huge fan favorite.
