“This class helped me stretch my design perspective, expand my portfolio, and opened my eyes to what kind of designer I really am. The review from Rachel not only boosted my confidence, but confirmed that my unique style is marketable and innovative”.

“To be honest, I loved the whole module and I’m still trying to digest and work through all the amazing information and advice shared. I particularly loved weeks 1 & 2 which focused on subject matter as it really pushed me out of my comfort zone and encouraged me to try new things. The prompt cards and drawing exercises are a great way of helping when you’re stuck in a creative rut – I’ve been drawing and doodling things that I would have previously avoided or never even considered! As a result, I feel like my portfolio is really taking shape and it’s given me a huge confidence boost so I’d like to say a huge thank you to the amazing team at MIID for such a fantastic course. I hope to be able to share some great success stories with you in the future”.

“The ultimate portfolio builder has really encouraged me to try new subject matter, and has given me enough inspiration to last a very long time after the course! The feedback from Khristian A Howell was so lovely and useful and a real confidence boost”.

“The course has given me an enormous boost. In just 7 weeks, with the extra time on the live briefs, I am able to realize patterns in new creative and technical ways”.

“The ABSPD series of courses have been amazingly fun and informative and I will miss them greatly. I feel they have equipped me to go out into the world of design and make my mark – in repeating pattern of course and totally colour coordinated! Thank you all so much for you support, generosity and patience”.

“For me, the most useful part of the course is how it gave me so many ideas for subjects to draw, different ways to draw them, and color palette suggestions. I tend to get stuck in art ruts, drawing the same motifs the same way and in the same colors, so I found these exercises extremely helpful to successfully add variety and depth to my collections”.
