The Ultimate Portfolio Builder is an advanced seven-week online professional surface pattern design course, consisting of an intense five-week class followed by two weeks of design reviews.

This powerful course will give you all the tools and advice you need to grow your body of commercially viable work, refine and strengthen your professional design portfolio and give you the fast-track to trade show success.

The personal reviews were so helpful and showed me how to improve each of my designs. The masterclasses were packed with hands on and step-by-step instructions that you can’t find anywhere else. And whenever I feel stuck, I can just pull out my prompt cards for ideas. I’m now light years ahead of where I would have been without this class.

Thanks to this course I have drawn things I didn’t know I was capable of, I have made patterns I never thought I would be able to create and I feel I have truly grown as a person as well as an artist. The portfolio review was the highlight of the course for me, it was the confidence boost that I needed. I know now for certain that I am on the right path. I can’t thank Rachael and the MIID team enough, you have truly changed my life.
