I personally like Valentine's Day, not just from a romantic perspective, but to look at this day as an opportunity to show love in all areas of my life. Look at this day as to how you can share more love with others (with your creativity) and with yourself – drawing, sketching, creating, painting. Today, I want to take this opportunity to share my series of classes (I now have 14) as well as my new picture book and an exciting offer.

DO YOU LOVE CHARACTER DESIGN?

Then join me in my series of character design classes, including my latest Animal Character Design for Picture Book Illustrators class.

With 20 years of experience illustrating children’s picture books, I’m passionate about sharing everything that I’ve learnt over the years… fast-tracking people like you... and sharing how you can make a living doing what you love. > For more about me and my books <

14 CHARACTER DESIGN CLASSES

Below I’ve listed ALL of the classes in my character design series. That’s 14 classes that will literally walk you through the entire process of how to illustrate a character from start to finish. Use the list below to either dip-in and brush-up on a particular area or work your way through from start to finish for a comprehensive guide. My 20-years of experience have been distilled into 12-hours of video lessons offering techniques, tips, tutorials and fun projects to have you illustrating characters like a pro in no time!

Nina's Character Design Series

I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO JOIN ME IN MY NEW CLASS
My new class ‘Animal Character Design For Picture Book Illustrators’, offers techniques and tips for designing characters with a narrative. Across 1.5-hours, I share techniques, tips and tutorials for effective story-driven animal character design.

Inspired by my latest picture book This Is The Dog (Maura Finne, Scholastic, Feb 1) and my Draw-a-Dog-a-Day 100-Day Project, this class walks you through the fundamentals of animal character design.

THIS IS THE DOG
This is the dog with the snuffly snout,
the half-crumpled ear,
the fur that sticks out.
With one ear up and one ear down,
a lonely little dog waits...
and hopes, that he will have a home and a forever friend.

WOULD YOU LOVE TO ILLUSTRATE PICTURE BOOK?
To help share some LOVE, this Valentine's Day I’m offering my self-paced Picture Book Illustration e-Course for only $197.00 (Feb 16, the 8-week course will rise to the new price of $497.00). Across the 8-week course, learn how to...
