Illustration is a way of seeing and understanding the world. Through a variety of techniques, traditional and digital, you’ll discover how to work on live briefs, explore creativity, and create work that connects with people.
In our studio environment, you’ll learn to experiment, test, and develop your work. You can explore drawing, painting, sewing and printmaking, as well as photographic, digital, moving image and interactive media. You’ll be a member of a lively community of illustrators exploring, celebrating and engaging together.
You’ll be able to enter competitions, exhibit in London shows, and work closely with other students to form illustration collectives. Our tutors will help you to gain the confidence, skills and ideas needed to make a success of your career within the creative industries.
Our illustration graduates have gone on to work with publishers, animators, creative agencies and digital businesses – and many go on to enjoy success as independent illustrators.
There are no rules in illustration. On this course, you’ll explore the excitement of blurring boundaries between disciplines. You’ll challenge and interrogate that way what we think about imagery and style.
