With over 20 years tattooing , and almost 40 of being a creative I have been into art since I got something I can draw with in my hand. Starting out in more traditional mediums I cut my teeth in pencil, charcoal, and acrylic painting until discovering tattooing. This began a love affair with art and lead me to open 7th seasons studios. Nothing inspires a higher level of perfection than knowing the client will walk around with my art for the rest of their lives.
After completing a masters in business and having to manage the marketing of a successful shop I quickly realized that the future of art is digital and I began making my own show banners and managing my own website. This sealed the deal and digital art has replaced the traditional pen an ink for me.
Furthermore the industry has changed to such a degree that more and more clients and artists are demanding digital skills i the design and application of art, and so I saw a significantly under served market in people with existing talent, but lacking digital
As a career teacher the most rewarding portion of what i do is seeing someone learn what they previously thought what out of reach and gain a confidence through the learning process....I identify with that because i m a firm believer in the beginner mindset and the idea of a life long learner. To me, art is as essential as breathing and I cannot even narrow down all the ways I express myself through various mediums, that is one of the best competitive advan

By Craig Wilson

Looking forward to creating my own badges, once I've got the basics.

By Ofer Tamir

This course starts off really well and encourages you to start doing and learning right away.

By Chris Verberne

On this moment I am still at the beginning of this very interesting course. The instructors are very clear and the course is just at the right pace. Once the initial introduction is over, you are creating the first simple asset.

I really enjoy these first lectures and are looking forward to what is coming.

I recommend this course.

By Jamaal Montgomery

This was great for a beginner. I know how to set up new documents and how to do shading a little but its confusing at time when the shortcut keys are in Windows and I use a Mac. I really hope this program works out for me.
