You don't have to be "talented." You just have to be consistent.

Developing a creative art practice, learning to love the art you are making, and finding your unique creative voice is a learned skill. It's not about talent, which means, I can help you become the artist you are meant to be. Can you make a 5-week commitment to take things to the next level? Of course you can. You are ready. 

Hi, I'm Genna Blackburn.

You want to make lots of art, love the art you are making, and find your unique creative voice. If you could overcome any self-doubt or uncertainty about your abilities and your signature style so that you are making the art that only you can make — how would that feel?

I can help, because I've been there. With the strategies I figured out, I went from being overwhelmed and self-critical to:

  • making tons of art and developing my signature style
  • signing licensing contracts with some of my dream clients 🤯
  • becoming a Skillshare Top Teacher 
  • 10x my Instagram following
  • being represented by a top, world-wide illustration agency

Once I overcame the barriers to making lots of art and finding my signature style, I became lighter, happier, more prolific, and more successful. And I want that for you as well — you deserve to feel creative and confident, and to experience the beauty of having art flow out of you. Let me show you how.

"I was really struggling with sticking with a daily art practice when I heard about Drawn to Art. Genna's approach really helped me work through mindset struggles I was having and as a result, I have been making art more regularly. I go back to rewatch some of her videos when I feel myself getting stuck because I find them so helpful. I also love Genna's fun approach to making art and playing around to really discover who you are as an artist." — Melissa

Making art wasn't always easy (or enjoyable) for me.

I have always been drawn to art, but it didn't come easily. And I thought that meant I wasn't supposed to be an artist. I kept thinking I should pursue something else, something that wasn't so hard. But I felt pulled to it and couldn't ignore that feeling.

I struggled with many barriers to creating art and finding my signature style.

Do any of these sound like you?

That's why I created

Drawn to Art

 

This immersive 5-week program will help you:

  • Love more of the art you are making.
  • Make the art that only you can make.
  • Analyze your own work so you can enhance your unique creative voice.
  • Learn how to use color to make work that is cohesive and attracts people to your art.
  • Develop a signature style that will allow you to make more art than ever before, and build an audience of raving fans.

The 3 Pillars of Drawn to Art

The Drawn to Art program is built on three powerful pillars that lead to making art you love and developing a unique creative voice.

Mindset

Learning to listen to your creative intuition, making more art that you love, and developing your voice comes from how you think about your creativity and your art. Once I unlocked this pillar, the flood gates came crashing open and I started making more art that I loved than ever before. And I can save you years from learning this on your own. You will overcome the obstacles that keep most artists from coming into their full potential.

Skills

The second pillar to making art that is as good as you imagine it can be is foundational skills and principles. You may have already learned some of this in school but you haven't learned it like this. We're going to talk about the power of color to transform your work and define your style, how to build up your visual mind library so you can draw your personal motifs from memory, and what to do when you create something that you don't love.

Style

After mindset and skills, we are going to explore your unique creative voice. You'll learn how to analyze your work so you can lean into what's working, what's unique to you, and define your signature style. And the community and support team will be there to help you analyze and critique your work and cheer you on! Sometimes just one small piece of feedback from someone with fresh eyes can make everything come into powerful focus!

"Genna has been a huge inspiration and motivation in propelling me forward in my art journey. I was not making art my priority even though it was something I secretly wanted to do. I decided to take Drawn to Art because I felt that Genna could help me develop a consistent art practice and find my signature style. Even within this short space of time, I can see a notable improvement in my drawing abilities.— Elizabeth

— Amanda Mikolajek

"Before taking this course, I had been drawing for several years but just couldn't see my style forming. The course provided concrete criteria that I could use to analyze my own work and constraints I could play with to hone in on the type of art that I love to make and feels like me. My style really started to come out and now I feel much more confident sharing and pitching my work."

—Rachel

"Genna and Team: You are amazing! Absolute gems! 💖 Thank you for giving me new perspective, confidence, and the freedom to explore and play again! I can’t say enough how much this has meant to me.

In addition, I wanted to find my joy back in illustrating. The course exceeded my expectations. It gave me the focus I needed to move forward."

— Marlies Niemeijer
