Announcing a two-week Illustration workshop on Skillshare from April 16th-30th, exclusively for Annual Members!

Calling all artists and illustrators! Do you love drawing and sketching but aren’t sure where to go next with your passion? We’re excited to announce a two-week workshop led by top Illustration teachers Dylan Mierzwinski and Peggy Dean. This April, Dylan & Peggy will help you tackle the most daunting but rewarding part of any art practice: developing your own style. Through four floral-filled classes, exclusive resources from Dylan & Peggy, and a cumulative project assignment, you’ll take your illustration skills to the next level and start developing a unique style all your own, alongside a creative, supportive community.

What You’ll Learn

  • In part 1 of the workshop, you’ll take a new class coming soon from Dylan (designed specifically for the workshop!) where she’ll demystify the theory and fundamentals of illustration. From color, line and form to hierarchy and more, she’ll give you a toolkit to start understanding what you love about the styles you see online and how to start incorporating that inspiration into your own work.
  • In part 2, you’ll take three “practice and play” classes that will allow you to put what you learned in part 1 into action by exploring different styles of illustration, sketching and workflows, including a brand-new class from Peggy!
  • In part 3, you’ll put it altogether by working on a special project assignment that will encourage you to explore and start to showcase a unique style of your own.
