I’m currently doing the MATS Bootcamp 2016, which is my first course. I am absolutely loving it and feel that I have already grown in the first few weeks….so looking forward to what I will learn by the end of the 5 months! I’m also grateful for all of the free MATS resources and Lilla’s encouraging videos, which I’ve been using as inspiration up to now.

The MATS experience has taught me that my own creativity has value. It has shown me that I don’t need to compare myself to anyone else …to just be myself and to grow in my own style is enough! See more of Jennifer’s work here

SUSI SANLIER | SUSI’S CAULDRON

Last year I participated in the Global talent search for the first time, this year I am taking the MATS bootcamp.

Last year I started on my creative journey after 24 years of caring for the kids and neglecting my art career more or less. I enjoyed taking part in the global talent search as it shows you can still make it as a designer no matter how old you are. Now I am taking bootcamp and boy, it is so much fun. I adored the mini, and had a blast creating my first submission. From that submission and the sketches for the mini I achieved so many motifs that I was able to create a bouquet full of new patterns. I am so glad I found my tribe! See more of Susi’s work here

MADIHA YEARWOOD

Along with enjoying all of your free resources, I participated in the last Global Talent Search.

I would tell friends and fellow artist ……

“You wont regret this experience, it will inspire you every step of the way and help you grow as an artist, oh yeah and it’s SUPER FUN!” See more of Madiha’s work here

MITZIE TESTANI

I have taken Bootcamp (2015 and 2016), Home decor (1 and 2), MATS B and also MATS A and B Self-paced. I have grown so much as an illustrator since beginning these courses. I was hoping to find a master’s program that was online and was thrilled to find Lilla’s courses after a referral from a fellow Tyler School of Art Alum in one of my LinkedIn groups.

These courses have pushed me so much—but with all positive feedback. I didn’t even think that was possible. They have encouraged me to push myself, which is even better.

The added bonus is that they all come with a network of illustrators that range from new to seasoned pro. I have an instant access to other artists who are either going through the same journey or who can lead me to the next step. I wish I would have started these courses sooner!
