Develop Your Signature Style: Overcoming Obstacles with a 5-Day Art Challenge

Are you an artist searching for your signature design style? That thing that makes it so people recognize your work as yours without even seeing your name attached to it? This class is for you!

Join surface designer & illustrator, Genna Blackburn, as she guides you through the process of creating a 5-day art challenge to uncover your signature style.

A signature design style is important to have because it helps establish your brand as an artist. A signature style isn’t something you search for, but rather, something that becomes clear naturally as you create more and more work. But doing the work can sometimes seem daunting and intimidating, especially if you’re afraid to make “bad” art or feel like you don’t have large chunks of time to devote to practicing. Don’t let years go by without practicing consistently because of negative mindsets!

In this class, you’ll learn how to:

• Set up a 5-day art challenge
• Overcome common pitfalls of trying to find your style
• Best practices for consistent creating
• Analyze the commonalities that emerge from your work

A 5-day art challenge is a great way to get in the habit of creating a little bit every day and not giving yourself too much time to dwell on whether or not you love everything you create. And the benefit of creating every day for 5 days is that by the 5th day, you may start to see some commonalities emerge.

This class is for beginners as well as artists that are further along on their journey but who haven’t quite nailed down a signature style yet. Genna is an illustrator, but the tools in this class can apply to any creative medium (writing, painting, surface design, etc.)
