Hi my name is Chris Piascik, I'm an illustrator and letterer. I have 10+ years experience working as an illustrator for clients like Nickelodeon, Adidas, The Washington Post, Cartoon Network, and so many more!

In this class I’ll show you how to make a fun new image you can use for your profile picture on Social Media, or your website, or whatever you want! Adding some illustrations and lettering onto your photo is a great way to add some personality and make it stand out from the rest. It allows you to inject more of yourself and your interests then are possible with just one static portrait. And if you’re like me, its a great way to make it less awkward. I mean, what are you even supposed to do with your face in these things?

I’ll be mainly using Procreate on the iPad, but you can use whatever you’re most comfortable with including paper and pencil. There’s not right or wrong way to do it. I’ll provide tips and tricks for making lettering and illustration fit in seamlessly with and around your photographs. I’ll also talk about my process for generating ideas and content for visuals.

Although we are using this process to create cool new profile pictures, I’ve used the same process for client work including magazine covers, editorial work, and advertising.
