Learn how to create more creative, original, and downright weird illustrations in this fun project based class by Award-Winning Illustrator and Top Teacher, Mr. Tom Froese!

Along the way you'll learn how to overcome those two annoying pain points: creative block and self doubt! By using simple and (sometimes even awkward) shapes, it’s fun and easy to come up with some pretty strange but highly creative ideas. If you’ve ever wondered how (and why on earth!?) illustrators come up with their unexpected ideas, this class gives you some clues.

Who This Class is For

• Anyone looking for new ways to come up with ideas and be more creative in their art!
• It’s especially geared toward illustrators, but it’s fun and easy enough to do for everybody!

Tom loves helping people tap deeper into their creativity, no matter who they are or what they do for a living!

What You'll Learn

• How to find MORE ORIGINAL IDEAS
• How to LOOSEN UP with your drawing
• How to BREAK FREE from REALISM
• How to OVERCOME CREATIVE BLOCK and SELF DOUBT
• Creating Illustrations from ROUGH to FINAL
• DEEP INSIGHTS into Tom's illustration process!

Minimum Required Skills and Experience

• No experience or special skills needed
• Sketching/Plain Paper
• Pencil and Eraser
• Tracing Paper or Light Table 
• Favourite illustration tools (physical or digital welcome!)

About Tom's Tools (Recommended)

• iPad Pro with Apple Pencil
• Procreate for Sketching
• Photoshop on iMac for Final Illustration
• Astropad to use iPad as graphics tablet for his Mac

You don’t need any experience to take this class, and you don’t need any fancy tools. While Tom will be using Procreate for sketches and Photoshop for finished illustrations, you can just as easily do this class using pencil and paper. Just bring whatever you love working with, or whatever you have on hand, and let the fun begin! Of course, you will get the most out of this class if you know your way around some illustration tools, but that’s certainly optional.
