FROM THE INSTRUCTOR

From rocket ships to rockstars, NASA to Rolling Stone, I've collaborated with clients around the world to design pictures that speak louder than words. In the classroom, I've worked hard to unpack the magic of creativity to teach artists the value of their voice and the world the value of artists

Ideacraft collects my lessons, projects and assignments from over 25 years into a six-week course. I'm thrilled to see what you'll make.
