The Style Class: Work Out Your Illustration Style in a Daily Project

Adele, what a fun, creative and cute project! And beautiful style! Congratulations!

What an amazing portfolio collection you created!

Wow!! This is beautiful!! I love your style and how you use texture, shape, and line! Would you mind sharing what brushes you use?

Hi Ally. I'm so happy you like my project. The main brush I used is the Dusty Print Block brush by Abbie Nurse. You can purchase it here: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener external nofollow" href="https://www.uproot.shop/product-page/the-big-procreate-print-pack">www.uproot.shop/product-page/the-big-procreate-print-pack</a>

Each illustration is so clever! You are very creative.

Wow, Adele! Just caught some of your images on Instagram through the class hashtag. Wow. Just wow. Thank you for so diligently going through this project and posting it here as a completed project. So good! WELL DONE! How do you feel about the project after it all? What did you learn about your style, about what you love, or techniques or other things you want to carry through in more of your work? Would love to know!

Thank you so much Tom! I really appreciate your positive feedback. 

I've done most of your classes but this is my first time attempting to finish a class project. The thing that I love most of the style class and your other classes is you teach me how to think rather than simply how to draw. There're many classes out there that can only teach you how to draw exactly like the teacher does but yours are nothing like that. I'm sure you know what I mean! 

Through the project I've learn that I'm more the 'designer' type. I love to interpret an idea in a humorous yet relax way. I tend to focus more on the idea than on the technique.

I'm also very inspired by how you've divided the techniques into four categories from traditional art. I also do linocut but before this I've never thought about how to incorporate Linocut qualities into my illustration. Through this project I tried to use colour blocks and lines that partially inspired by reduction linocut. I think I'll carry that through with me.

Thanks again for another great class!

Wonderful collection Adele! I love the smart and quirky ideas behind your illustrations! And congrats on keeping up with the whole process! I am trying to do the same myself, and it is harder than it seems.

Hi Akbari. Thank you for your nice words. I'm so happy you love the quirkiness cause that's what I tried to achieve. Looking forward to see your project.

These are great. Very consistent style.

Thank you very much. I'm learning a lot through this project.

Beautiful texture on the leak. Also the green color used is so nice, not too bright or dull. Great job!

Thank you very much! I'm so glad that you find the green is appropriate cause I was struggling a bit to use it.

Thank you very much! It's my favourite gardening wear.

I love this theme so much! Your selection of words is great, and your illustrations are very relatable so far. I love that you've incorporated some of the overprint you mentioned in your case studies, and the use of texture really adds to the personality of the pieces.

Thank you very much! I'm still exploring my style but really enjoy this project.

wow this is impressive! I really like the style and consistency

Naaawww :D I like how the worms got different characters. And the turn in the picture for "digging": one might have thought of an exhausted gardener, but NO! :)

Thank you very much. I want to some twists to my work and I'm glad that you like them.

Love the color palette and textures you are using, can’t wait to see more!

I love the hands that "dont need to be realistic". Looks fun :D

Thank you so much!! I'm having a lot of fun with the project.

Your use of colour, texture, shapes &amp; lines works so well together! I love your series so far! &lt;3
