Graphic design for illustrators?
-
@Eliana-Bastidas I love Anoosha Syed! I searched for the class you described, but the one I found seems to be an interview with her and not a graphic design class?

@Valerie-Light I will give you both the link and password to zoom on Instagram because I’m not sure if it can be shared.
-
@Valerie-Light I already sent you the link. I also attached my dashboard, so you can take a look how the webinars are shown in case you want to register for a future one. Hope it helps! If it doesn’t I will try to look for something else.

@Eliana-Bastidas Thanks, that's really kind of you.
-
@Valerie-Light You are welcome!
I was looking around and it seems that everybody that signed up before the webinar has the link and password to it... So, I think it's okay to share it.
It will be online until July 3, so anybody that is reading this, make sure to watch it quickly!Illustration for Children’s Picture Books with Anoosha Syed.

@Valerie-Light howdy! Having taught myself book design and been designing books for a few years now, these resources that helped me might help you too.
-
READ and STUDY children's books (or the genre you want to illustrate/design). Seriously, you'll learn so much.
-
Check out these books (they're old but have great information): Picture This: How Pictures Work by Molly Bang, Art and Design in Children's Picture Books by Lyn Ellen Lacy, and Bookmaking: The Illustrated Guide to Design/Production/Editing by Marshall Lee. The last one's a beast; haven't made it through that one myself yet.

To learn general graphic design principles, Satori Graphics on YouTube is very informative and easily digestible.
This might be a little more in-depth than you were looking for, because it isn't just one class, but it will give you a solid knowledge base. And if you have any questions, feel free to pick my brain -- happy to help if I can!

@Melissa_Bailey This is a great list, Melissa! Thanks for linking everything. Molly Bang's book really opened my eyes to the power of composition a few years ago, and I'm definitely due for a reread. I'll check out the other two you recommend.
Satori Graphics seems to be pretty close to what I'm looking for right now. I'll spend some time with those.
