About This Workshop
How do you come up with concepts? How do you know what style to work in? These are two of illustrators’ most burning questions! Join illustrator Tom Froese for this single-class workshop all about creating illustrations that are both conceptually and stylistically rich. You’ll get an inside look at Tom’s process — from research and sketching to polished final illustration. By the time you’re finished, you’ll have a new perspective on your method and approach, and a set of delightful spot illustrations to share with the world.
Workshop Timeline
- Milestone 1: Watch lessons 1-10 where Tom sets the stage for his thinking and approach. You’ll learn (or get a refresher on) some fundamentals, explore principles of stylization, and learn the difference between imitation and inspiration. You’ll finish up this week with the project kickoff! Complete this milestone by April 15th.
- Milestone 2: Next, watch lessons 11-13 and create your first illustration! Tom walks you through research & discovery, concept sketches, and creating your final artwork. Share your first illustration in the project gallery by April 24th.
- Milestone 3: Last, watch lessons 14-16 and create your second illustration! This process will be similar to the first set, but will involve abstract concepts that require more creative thinking. Share your second sweet spot in the Project Gallery by May 4th.
