Hey everyone, finally! My signature course "Low-Pressure Art-Making with Wonky Shapes" is now available right here inside The Wonky Art Society. 😍 I know not all of you are Skillshare members, so I really wanted to make sure you can access it here, too. This is the class where I teach the technique and philosophy behind my wonky shapes, why I intentionally avoid perfect lines and shapes, and how this little shift can take so much pressure out of drawing while still helping you grow your skills. You can now find the full class in the Classroom and purchase it directly there. And this is only the beginning. 😇 Little by little, I’ll be filling the Classroom with more classes, workshop replays, resources and other useful creative goodies. I’m also planning an optional membership for the future, so those of you who would like access to everything won’t have to purchase each item individually. The community and live events will stay free, of course. The membership will simply be another option for those who want the full growing library without having to purchase every single item. But for now: the Wonky Shapes class is officially here! 🎉 I’m so happy to finally have it in our little Society home. ❤️

Here is what I came up with for this week’s prompt. I’ve been feeling pretty wonky the past couple of days and been using the selection technique Jutta taught in her wonky shapes Skillshare class and her shading work shop. That is the technique I used here for the prompt.

Hey everyone, my Mid-Century Illustration Fun with Markers & Ink: Make it Wonky! class is now available right here inside The Wonky Art Society, too! 😍 If you don’t know me yet, I have a strong passion for mid-century art and illustration and have a bunch of classes about it over on Skillshare. I know not everyone has a Skillshare subscription, so I’ll make sure to upload them all to the Wonky Art Society as well. In this class, we’ll loosen up, let go of perfection and create wonderfully wonky mid-century illustrations through five different exercises. You can follow along traditionally with markers and pen, or digitally in Procreate. You’ll find the full class in the Classroom, ready to purchase and watch whenever you like. Little by little, the shelves are filling up over there. 😇 Happy drawing!

Alright, now that my studio makeover is done, I can focus again on what’s most important to all of us: art-making. 😇 So, I would like to ask you today: What’s one tiny thing that has made art-making easier or more enjoyable for you lately? Let’s all share our little tips and tricks so we can learn from one another! Mine is: Using the same color palette for several drawings instead of starting from scratch every time. Not only does it help tremendously while drawing, but it also creates this cohesive look that people recognize as “style”. It can also be a limitation that makes you think outside the box! What if the item you would like to draw is originally red, but you don’t have red in your color palette? Now you’re practicing problem-solving, too! Now tell me yours! 👇

I guess I‘m done?! There‘s a few filming items missing on the small desk in my filming nook but other than that I‘d call it done. What do you think? 💪
