Explore the different ways to draw shapes, lines, textures, and colors. Develop your unique art style, faster
The traditional advice for finding your style as an artist is ‘Draw tons and tons, eventually your style will emerge.’ Well yeah, you can aimlessly draw a ton of stuff and you’ll eventually land on a style. But in my experience intentional, directed practice has dramatically sped up the development of my visual style. So let’s find your illustration style, faster!
In this style class, we’re gonna explore different ways of visually expressing shapes, lines, textures, colors. You know, all the those visual elements that form what you art actually LOOKS like. We'll learn from artists you admire by integrating what you love about their work into your own, but in a way that’s unique to you. You’ll finish the class with a series of 4 illustrations in your brand new style.
For those of you like me who suffer from Shiny Object Syndrome and are always eager to try on a new style? We’ll discuss:

Nope! :) While I'll be demonstrating the exercises using Procreate on an iPad, the content of the lessons can be applied to any medium you like. You can work in watercolors, markers, or whatever your medium of choice is!
Yes, there's lots of info that will be very helpful for beginners! But the class is NOT a step-by-step walk through. If you are absolutely brand new to drawing, you may find some of style questions easier to answer after you've made a handful of art pieces (and you'll definitely be making a lot of art in the class!) Some of the topics we cover, you may have never considered before and may stretch as an artist. This class is for all levels, and if you are a beginner, I truly believe it will be helpful for you. Just come prepared to stretch yourself a little outside your comfort zone - I promise it'll still be fun!
