Composition is SO important to learn as illustrators, but for many of us, it is also SO confusing and hard to put into action in our own work! I made this class to help illustrators learn how composition works, and specifically, how you can USE this understanding to make more outstanding compositions in YOUR OWN work!

What You Will Learn

• HOW COMPOSITION WORKS for illustrators working in a flatter, graphic style
• Why some principles are COMPLETELY USELESS!
• Which principles are the most ACTIONABLE
• How to use 2 SIMPLE GRIDS to give your compositions more structure
• Just 6 COMPOSITION TYPES to use as starting points
  
  

And of course, you’ll get to put it all together in a JUICY PROJECT — a series of 6 ILLUSTRATED POSTAGE STAMPS based on the theme and country of your choice! It’s a very challenging project but there’s absolutely NO way to learn composition except by trying it with your hands in a very specific way.

There really is no class like this one — which aims to teach composition in the most ACTIONABLE way possible. My goal is to show you how the principles work in a more universal sense, but also to guide you
