You&#x27;ll get to practice each stage and can choose to come up with your own design or select one from our samples.  For over 18s, beginners and non-artistic people welcome!

My designs are highly illustrative and inspired by vintage lettering and packaging but with modern elements like bright colours and vivid illustrations.
