About This Class

Have you been growing your technical skills but are still in search of your style? Do you see a disconnect between your work and the work of those you admire? Are you a self taught creative who sometimes feels like an imposter? I have BEEN there, and this class is just for you. In under 45 minutes I go through the Art 101 lecture that every artist, regardless of medium, needs to tuck in their back pocket (or be reminded of!). Does it sound too good to be true that BASICS could make the difference in your work? I won't spoil the surprise (okay yes I will, it's a total gamechanger)

We'll be taking a look at the elements and principles of design, and then take it three steps further and apply it to:

I dropped out of school to pursue my creative dreams, and although it was the best decision I've made, it took a long time to shake off that "everyone knows something but me" feeling; like my lack of degree was written all over my work in some invisible language. Well, the truth is it was and it wasn't. If you make art, you're an artist, period. But there's definitely a foundation of knowledge that, when supplied to the hungry and ambitious artist, can set their path on fire and take their work from alright to excellent. It isn't a gimmick, it's as old as art itself and used widely by creatives of all kinds. In fact, you've probably already been using some of these tools without realizing it!

Take a break from those keyboard shortcuts and grab a coffee, it's time for the Art 101 lecture you've been waiting for.
