Have you been thinking about picking up your pencils again? Perhaps you’d love to learn something new, improve your drawing skills or simply find a little more time to be creative.

Well, I’ve got some lovely news to share! 🥰

I’ve recently welcomed hundreds of new members into my Ignite coloured pencil membership, and it’s been absolutely wonderful seeing so many people taking that next step on their creative journey!

Some are picking up their pencils for the very first time, others are returning to drawing after years away, and some simply want to make a little more time for something they love.

And that’s exactly what Ignite is all about!

When I created Ignite back in 2021, I wanted to build something that went beyond simply teaching people how to draw.

Of course, I wanted to share everything I know about coloured pencils, but more than anything, I wanted to create a space where people could rediscover their creativity, grow in confidence and really enjoy what they’re doing.

And one of the loveliest things has been hearing what Ignite has meant to the people who’ve joined me along the way.

Our doors have now closed to new members, but if you’d love to join us next time, you can pop your name on my waitlist and I’ll let you know when we’re opening again! 🥰

In the meantime, I thought I’d give you a little look at what Ignite is all about. And rather than me telling you how wonderful our community is, I thought I’d let some of our lovely members do the talking!

❤️ Hear What My Members Have to Say

Hearing stories like these is what makes me love what I do so much. From people picking up their pencils after years away to those discovering a confidence they never knew they had, it’s wonderful to see how creativity can become such an important part of someone’s life.

And it’s exactly why I love welcoming new members into Ignite. There’s something so special about seeing people realise what they’re capable of when they give themselves the time and space to create.

What Is the Ignite Coloured Pencil Membership?

Ignite is my online coloured pencil membership, created to help you develop your drawing skills and enjoy being creative, wherever you’re starting from.

Inside, you’ll find step-by-step coloured pencil tutorials, live drawing sessions, Q&As, critiques, Expert Artist workshops and a wonderful community of people who share your love of creativity.

But for me, Ignite has always been about so much more than learning techniques.

Yes, we’ll explore layering, pencil pressure, colour, values and everything that helps bring realistic drawings to life.

Is Ignite Suitable for Beginners and More Experienced Artists?

Absolutely!

Whether you’re picking up coloured pencils for the first time, returning to drawing after a long break or looking to become more independent with your artwork, Ignite is designed to support you.

If you love following a step-by-step tutorial, I’ll happily hold your hand through the whole process.

And if you’re ready to spread your wings a little, I’ll encourage you to experiment, make your own decisions and develop your own artistic style.

I want you to become the artist you want to be, not a copy of me!

That’s something I feel really strongly about, because everyone’s creative journey is different.

What’s Included in the Ignite Coloured Pencil Membership?

There’s so much to explore inside Ignite, and you can make the membership work around your own interests and creative goals.

Your Ignite Questions Answered

If you’re thinking about joining, you might have a few questions. So here are some of the things people often ask me.

What materials do I need to get started?

You don’t need lots of expensive equipment! A basic set of coloured pencils, suitable paper and a few drawing essentials are enough to begin.

I’ll also provide materials lists with my tutorials, so you’ll know what you need before getting started.

Do I have to attend the live drawing sessions?

Not at all! I know life gets busy, so our live sessions are recorded for you to watch whenever it suits you.

Whether you prefer joining us live or catching up with a cuppa at the weekend, you can make Ignite work around your life.

Can I learn coloured pencil drawing at my own pace?

Of course! There’s no pressure to keep up with anyone else.

You can follow the tutorials, revisit techniques whenever you need to and work through the resources in your own time.

Do I get access to previous coloured pencil tutorials?

Yes! As a full Ignite member, you’ll have access to my existing tutorial library, with a wide variety of subjects to choose from.

You can search for tutorials, revisit your favourites and try something new whenever you fancy.

How much does Ignite membership cost?

You can choose between two payment options:

• Monthly membership: £37 / $49 per month.
• Annual membership: £370/$490 per year, giving you two months free compared with paying monthly.

Choose whichever option works best for you.

Can I cancel my Ignite membership?

Monthly memberships have a minimum commitment of one month, while annual memberships run for one year.

After your initial commitment, you can cancel with 30 days’ notice, in line with the membership terms.
