Fine artist and illustrator Lisa Congdon is best known for her colorful, graphic drawings and hand lettering, and for sharing creative inspiration through her books, podcast recordings, Instagram feed and public speaking.

She’s the author of eight books, including the starving-artist-myth-smashing Art Inc: The Essential Guide to Building Your Career as an Artist, bestselling Whatever You Are, Be a Good One, and her latest book Find Your Artistic Voice: The Essential Guide to Working Your Creative Magic. She has worked for clients around the world including Comme des Garçons, Crate and Barrel, Facebook, MoMA, REI, among many others. She was named one of 40 Women Over 40 in 2015 and is featured in the 2017 book, 200 Women Who Will Change the Way you See the World – and in case you can’t tell, we are beyond thrilled that she will be joining us for Bootcamp 2020!

As Lilla revealed in our FREE public Facebook Live event on Monday (watch it here if you missed out), she’ll be chatting with Lisa in an incredibly special Facebook Live event exclusively for Assignment Bootcamp 2020 students – and as it’s a live event, you’ll also be able to ask questions and add comments as Lilla and Lisa chat. What an amazing opportunity to learn from these two female art powerhouses!
