Overview

Have you always had a desire to explore the joy of illustration and wish to tell stories through your designs? Would you love the opportunity to turn your artwork into commercial pieces of artwork, which can then be produced and applied onto numerous products. Stationery, mugs, tea towels, pin badges, cushions and so much more.

This experimental creative class will give you an introductory insight to illustration and where it can be applied. Allow you the opportunity to work towards creating your own unique illustrative style.

You will be lead through a series of mini workshops exploring exciting traditional and modern techniques and styles.
