(Pssst…It’s a new year, and I’m trying something new with enrollment for this class. Be sure to read the whole email to learn more about what’s changing!)
 
Floral Animal Silhouettes is a fun and in-depth Procreate class for all levels from beginner to professional. You’ll learn how to illustrate your favorite animal and fill it with stunning floral embellishments to give it your own unique spin. 
 
I’ve gotten hooked on creating floral animal illustrations, and they’ve become top sellers in my portfolio!

The class is broken down into bite-sized lessons where you’ll be able to follow along with my process step by step. 
 
This is a beginner-friendly class, so even if you’ve never used Procreate before, you’re going to be able to follow along just fine and create a gorgeous floral animal illustration!
 
If you’re already a Procreate pro, you’re going to get my best tips & tricks for creating professional-level illustrations.
 
 
A New Way to Enroll
 
As an educator, it’s important to me to make sure that my classes are as accessible to as many people as possible. And as an entrepreneur, it’s important for me to be open to trying new ways of doing things in my business. So I’m really excited to share that there is a new way to enroll in my classes this year! 
 
In the past, I’ve exclusively offered my classes on Skillshare, but now I’m offering all of my classes both on Skillshare and for individual purchase on my website! 
 
What does that mean exactly?
 
It means that you don’t have to have a subscription to access my course content. You can purchase a course once and own it for life! You’ll have unlimited access to the course and can reference it as often as you need. 
 
Here’s how this works with Floral Animal Silhouettes
 
From now until January 30th, the class will be exclusively available for individual purchase. It’s coming to Skillshare, but I’m giving early access to the class for those who want to have lifetime access to it. 
 
The class is almost four hours long and chock-full of professional illustration tips, so it’s one that you’ll want to be able to reference again and again! 
 
Plus, I’m so excited to have an option for my friends who aren’t Skillshare members! Now you don’t have to miss out on the fun!

If you liked my class, Blooms & Shrooms, you’re going to LOVE this one!
 
Fun story: After getting such great feedback on Blooms & Shrooms, I wanted to create another class that centered around the idea of putting together two top-selling motifs – flowers & animals in this case. My partner joked that I should give it a catchy name like ā€œBlossoms & Possumsā€ but alas, I decided to keep the class title more generic šŸ˜†
 
I’m so excited to share this class with you, and I can’t wait to see you inside!
 
 
#CreateWithCatCoq - Draw Your Favorite Animal

In honor of the launch of Floral Animal Silhouettes, this week’s #CreateWithCatCoq challenge is to draw your favorite animal!
 
It doesn’t have to be embellished with florals, but that is totally an option if you’d like! 
 
Animals are always on-trend, so this is a great motif to add to your portfolio. If you aren’t sure which animal to draw, here are a few ideas of animals that always tend to sell well:
 
  • Tigers, Leopards, & Jungle Cats
  • Flamingos
  • Cats
  • Dogs
  • Llamas & Alpacas
 
Don’t forget to share your animal illustrations on Instagram with the hashtag #CreateWithCatCoq! I look through every single one, and I can’t wait to see what you draw.
