Assignment Bootcamp: Lettering starts in just a few weeks, on Monday, June 8th! I wrote this course because I know that being able to do lettering can radically increase how much money you earn from illustration gigs!

Lettering is fantastic for your career and can get you a ton of work. I created this course because I wanted to encourage you to experiment with different styles of lettering, to find your own unique style, and to fill your illustration portfolio with beautiful artwork designed to get you paying jobs.

Done your inventory for Part 1 of the #MATSprep and feel like you need some more supplies? Ever watched one of my videos of my lettering and wondered what art supplies I’m using?

Introducing my brand new Lettering Art Cart!

Some of my lettering gigs from my days as a full-time illustrator in NYC, when my lettering helped pay my bills! Check out some of my favorite art supplies for lettering here.

I’ve been putting together my Art Carts – monthly bundles of curated art supplies – for Portfolio Club for a while now, and now I’ve created a fabulous bundle of my favorite art supplies for Assignment Bootcamp: Lettering too!

The good news (or bad news if you love buying art supplies!) is that this course requires so few supplies – just something that makes a line – but I often gets questions about what supplies I use or recommend, so I’ve put together this list just for you.

I’ve had such an amazing time picking out some art supplies which I think you’re really going to love! Check out my Lettering Art Cart here.

Of course you don’t need anything more than a pen or tablet, and you can always purchase from your local shop. But if you want to save time and make it super easy, Blick ship internationally!
