Is this course for me?

Have you ever wondered how to find your art style? This course is for anyone of any level who wants to develop their figure drawing, grow their style, create marketable art for their portfolio, and explore new markets for their art from a top art agent and a working illustrator.

Using vintage images, styles and motifs  in a contemporary way will boost your portfolio!

Q. Why should I take Find Your Art Style with Style?

A. In this very cool, original course, you’ll fall in love with Tamisha’s collection of charming vintage clothing and colorful, quirky flea market knickknacks, combined with her curated visuals which will inspire you to explore a variety of styles.

Tamisha brings her love of vintage combined with her expertise as a children’s book illustrator, columnist and educator to select gorgeous design motifs, lines and colors to create a unique mash-up with a contemporary twist.

Together, they will delight you, expand you, and get you to try different things, because that’s how you discover what lights you up, and what you love, what makes your heart sing – that’s the basis of your unique style.

Q. Ok, sounds good. But what will I get out of it? What will I have at the end of the course?

A. Working through the Mini and Big assignments will help you to discover, improve and evolve your unique art style.

Plus you’ll create four fabulous pieces of art for four different hot art markets, each designed to boost your illustration portfolio, and you’ll get to practise and improve your clothed figure drawing, which is fantastic for a whole range of markets, as well as giving your creative toolkit a big boost.

Lilla says: “Tamisha is not only adorable, but the information she shares is incredibly inspiring. In Week 1, for example, I love how she shows her wonky cactus to illustrate whiplash lines as part of the assignment. She shares vintage clothing and accessories and amusing items to illustrate the kinds of line work that you’re working on this week. And she then gives you information to update your vintage work, so that it’s modernized and marketable

This is for you if;

• You want gorgeous inspiration every week and to experiment with different art materials to develop your style

A: The course happens in a gorgeous password-protected private classroom right here on this site. There is a separate online classroom here on the Make Art That Sells website for each course, divided into lessons.

You can log on every day if you choose, or set aside time once or twice a week to work through it.

The content in the class  is downloadable and you will have access to the classroom until 31 January, 2027 so you have plenty of time to go through everything at your own pace.

A: The class is taught using  video sessions, written posts, downloadable information  and valuable resources, and a huge amount of imagery. Everything is made available in a bespoke, password-protected private classroom. There are assignments.

Q: Do I need to have a drawing tablet or be able to create digital illustrations for this course? 

A: You don’t need any special software or equipment for this course.

Q: How is this course different to a college course?

A: As an agent whose artists have illustrated and authored lots of children’s books, games and other products, Lilla knows exactly what sells and what doesn’t sell.

The historical aspect of the course is incorporated into  portfolio pieces for today’s markets.

As an online course, you can attend from the comfort of your own home or studio, anywhere in the world, and the private classroom is open 24/7 so you can make it work around your life.
