I’ll do a pop-in “career tarot” for a volunteer — I’ll talk to them about their art career dreams and goals, and do a career tarot reading to suggest their next steps. And then I’ll give them a FREE Make Art That Sells course that I think would be perfect for them, based on what we’ve talked about!

See my newest favorite children’s book. It literally took my breath away.

Hot off the press! Today, we’re spotlighting Åsa Gilland’s beautifully illustrated book, We Are All Different–A Celebration of Diversity, written by Tracey Turner, published by Macmillan. This is one of the most moving books that I’ve seen in a very long time, as it celebrates such important themes like diversity, gender, learning styles, kindness and so much more in a joyful way.

GIANT NEWS! We’ve taken on THREE NEW ARTISTS!

Yup, you read that right. We’ve taken on three new artists!

It’s like an artist shopping spree around here. When I teach over at Make Art That Sells, I have the enviable job of watching students grow into incredible artists, and there are always many I swoon over.

However, we just couldn’t resist these three stellar artists, who consistently wowed me with their class assignments. All three took my Illustrating Children’s Book course at least once–you’ll see below how brilliant their kid book work is.

I bet you’re not even reading this and just scrolling down to see who we’ve picked, and I don’t blame you for a minute! 🤣

Contact us to assign or license art. We’re happy to help you find the perfect artist or gorgeous images for your project!

We’re delighted to welcome Jenny Miriam to our group!
When I kept seeing Jenny’s charming, and distinctive work in my courses I knew I wanted to represent her. Every piece she does floors us, from her picture book work to her toy pitches. We’re incredibly excited to represent Jenny and look forward to the range of work that she’s sure to get.

“I grew up happily climbing the highest tree in the street with my cat, walking on roofs, riding my pony bareback alone through the forest.”
Please give a big round of applause to Charlotte Bruijn!
We fell in love with Charlotte’s strong characters, bright palette and rich storytelling imagery, and look forward to keeping her busy with picture books and more! We’re very happy to represent her.

“When I draw I am in my happy place. So I am very lucky I can draw for a living.”
Let me introduce you to Maruga Koops.
There’s something about Maruga’s saturated paint and lovely imagery that is so appealing. The work she created for the balloon story for Make Art That Sells Illustrating Children’s Books class(above) completely wow’d us—that appealing child living in dreamy scenes. We’re delighted to represent her.
