Join Erik Gist, Lucas Graciano and special guest David Finch in this 8-day illustration workshop!

Are you an aspiring illustrator, a professional artist looking to expand your skill base or improve your skills with traditional media, or an art hobbiest with a lot of imagination looking to take a step into the world of the fantastic? Come spend eight days this January in intense study and camaraderie with established industry professionals David Finch, Lucas Graciano, and E. M. Gist. Immerse yourself in the world of illustration, and learn to make the images in your mind into a reality!

Each day of this eight day workshop will run from 10am to 10pm (or later) and will include:

-Lectures on storytelling, process and procedures
-Daily demonstrations/presentations
-Career building advice
-1 on 1 instruction and assistance
-Portfolio reviews

When not working on your own illustration pull up a chair and watch one of the teachers work, and pick their brain. Reserve your spot now, this workshop will host a maximum 15 students.

For those who sign up, we will release a series of prompts that you can choose to follow to base your illustration project on. It is also acceptable for students to work on their own idea.
