The official promo for the Skillshare hand-drawn label design class that starts May 13 is here! This video will give you a serious insider’s look at how we’ll be getting our hands dirty and making great stuff!
On Monday, May 13, I will begin teaching a two-week Skillshare class on hand-drawn label design. There will be a bunch of video lectures detailing research and inspiration, sketching concepts, brand development, and how to approach creating awesome labels with your own two hands. At the end of the class, the person who I think did the best job will get an awesome prize pack and of course, a write-up in all the usual social media channels.
So for anyone that’s missed a lecture, you’re in luck! This is going to get way more hardcore than any speaking engagement I’ve ever done.

I’ve written this essay a hundred times already, always hitting different angles and trying to cover everything, but it’s just not possible. I’m going to keep it short and sweet and dedicate it to those who’ve been there for me and lead by example as I’ve developed as a professional and a person. My heroes and my role models — the ones who taught me to defend my choices and be true to my gut instincts. The ones who taught me that when the going gets tough, the tough don’t break down in moments of weakness and make bad choices. I hope this means something to someone.
