Testimonials
Don't just hear it from us! Here's a few words from our Make Your Mark alumni on how the programme supported their illustration career...
The course was a great boost for me and I thoroughly enjoyed the briefs that were given to us. I really appreciated that we had a choice when it came to what was rolling out next and despite not being able to join the zoom seminars from time to time, I never once felt left out of the discussion. It’s a true community and I’m really happy to be a member of the Collective!
- Sam Hinton, Illustrator, UK
I spontaneously signed up after watching a live on Instagram with Livia Falcaruru and Lisa, and I was pleasantly surprised. For the first time, I managed to work on my brand non-stop and got to know a wonderful community of illustrators inside the Collective. Thanks to the program, I was able to work on developing my own voice and style in areas Ihad never explored before, build my own website, participating in my first local exhibition, and gaining the support of illustrators whom I admire. I highly recommend Make Your Mark!
- Fiorella Quaranta, Illustrator & Textile Designer, Spain
I have absolutely loved taking part in Make your Mark! It has been such a fantastic source of motivation for me in terms of creating my own personal portfolio. I have absolutely loved being surrounded by so many talented creatives and having their support and guidance throughout the programme. If you’re feeling a little stuck and not sure where to go in your illustration career then I would highly recommend the programme to help you figure it out!
