Have you always dreamed of creating books and illustrations for a career, but you're not sure how to get started? I will help you create a body of work that represents you with authenticity—something that industry professionals and art and design schools crave to see. You have a creative voice that begs to be nurtured. I can help you see the big picture and pinpoint your goals. Together we will design a body of work that cohesively represents your signature style and creative voice.
These mentoring sessions are perfect for the self-starting creative who wants to develop a portfolio focused on children's book illustration.
I can teach (traditional and digital) drawing, painting, and collage techniques that are commonly used in book illustration. Students are expected to complete assignments on their own and share them with me for critiques and constructive feedback.
I have over thirty years' experience in art and design fields, from fine art and illustration to logo and book design. I have been teaching workshops for the past fifteen years for children and adults. My teaching style is collaborative, and I love customizing projects to fit a student's unique goals, curiosity, and drive.
