During your one-to-one tutorial, we will work closely with you, at your own pace, to inspire, develop and focus your creative practice. The tutorials are tailored to meet your individual needs. In each tutorial we will give detailed verbal feedback on your work, provide advice and set targets to help you achieve your goals.
Throughout our friendly, nurturing tutorials we will provide visual examples to help explain ideas and concepts.
Tutorials may include areas of development such as observational drawing, developing your creative voice, use of materials, character, colour, continuity, how to go from your sketchbook to a resolved illustration, editing text and image, portfolio reviews, developing cover designs, page layouts, getting ready to pitch your work and children's book career advice.
Many of our clients sign for more than one tutorial. This is ideal for you if:
You want continued focused feedback on your work
You have a picture book book idea you'd like to develop visually
You want to grow your visual voice as an illustrator and find your style
If you have a long term goal or project to work on
You want to commit to growing your creative practise
If you're not sure how many tutorials you should sign up for, we will discuss your ambitions with you and advise.
During the tutorial you will receive detailed verbal feedback with goals to work towards. As this feedback is individual to you, we offer you the option to record the session for your future reference.
