Last time That I did a course was in Fall 2017, when I did Illustrating for Children's Books. It was amazing. You can read about it in another post from last year. Last week I finished the assigment for Make Art That Sells Boot

I just finished the first episode of this MATS B e-course, a course and a journey through all kinds of market that we are going to learn to design for. The first week was the paper market. The first two days we were sketching and the topic we sketched were toy trains. Isn't that great? So I searched on the internet and on my attic and I came up with lots of trains and locomotifs. I studied how they stuck together, how the wheels were attached to the trains, and what objects w
