Illustration Workshop

Mary Kate McDevitt
Find Your Style, Practice Drawing Skills, and Build a Stellar Portfolio

A how-to for today's illustration zeitgeist – from the author of the hit Hand-Lettering Ledger – that's friendly enough for both aspiring illustrators and anyone who loves to draw.

This hands-on workbook helps aspiring illustrators and anyone who loves to draw build up their drawing skills, confidence, and portfolio all at once. Illustrator extraordinaire Mary Kate McDevitt brings her years of industry expertise to guidance on all the basics of illustration – including tools and materials, how to develop an illustration from concept to final, finding a personal style – and exercises as practical as they are fun. She offers warm-ups to get loose, practice drills that strengthen through repetition, challenges for getting out of the comfort zone, and 12 real-world illustration assignments that make for a commercially-compelling portfolio – like a greeting card, a book cover, product packaging, a magazine editorial, and more – all with tons of encouragement and inspiring prompts through every step of the process.
