the beginner
with big dreams

“I want to make better art, and one day I want to share it with people around the world.”

the shop owner
whose sales are quiet

“I’ve been selling for a while, and my art is good, but the sales aren’t coming in.  I want to know what I’m doing wrong.”

the pivoter

“I’ve tried Etsy, Society6, Spoonflower (and everything in between).  I’m spread thin and burned out.  I’m ready to pick one thing and go deep.”

The Studio is built to serve creatives at every step in their journey from learning software and processes to selling art around the world through print-on-demand, licensing, shops, and more.

the story behind the studio

“I didn’t have a road map when I started making art on my iPad. I tried every platform, every strategy, every shiny new thing. Most of it earned me nothing. The thing that changed everything wasn’t a new tool. It was knowing which way to direct my efforts. Once I figured that out, I was able to build a business that supported me.

Spoonflower started paying me every month. My calendar business went from 204 sales to 4K+ in three years. I built The Studio so you don’t have to take the long way I took.  I’ll tell you what really works, and what is a waste of time!”

“Thank you for your EXCELLENT tutorials. After dipping in and out of Affinity for eons I am finally seeing the light!”

— Karen Eide

“I LOVE how Liz breaks it down and uses a template instead. I don’t see another artist teaching students this method to build better, more balanced, and complicated patterns.”

— Janice Lalonde

“This month I launched my basic portfolio site AND was able to set two new collections live on Spoonflower today thanks to all of Liz’s amazing courses.”

— Wyoming Vogel

“I cannot get over the value of this membership. You’ve actually provided the step-by-steps I need. Now I’m in full steam ahead on not one but two coloring books AND a children’s book.”

— Pennell

What's Waiting for you inside

The Studio

✦ 50+ Classes: Pattern design, illustration, Affinity Designer, selling, marketing — all in one place, in the order you actually need them. (Not 200 random tutorials you have to organize yourself.)

✦ Live Drawing Sessions + Critiques: Draw something new every month with me, then submit any piece you want for real feedback. No more wondering if your work is ready to sell.

✦ Monthly Trend Report: What’s actually trending, what’s actually selling, what’s getting saturated. So you stop guessing and start making the work people are already buying.

✦ Studio Chats: Conversations with working artists who are doing the thing. Real numbers, real failures, real strategy. 

✦ Studio Community: A room full of women doing exactly what you’re doing. No comparison, no algorithm, just shared experiments and what’s working.

“Inside The Studio, I peel back the curtain behind my process and failures so you know what works, and what is a waste of time when it comes to making and selling professional art.”

~Liz

Frequently Asked Questions

What tools or software do I need?

Most classes are taught using an iPad with Procreate or Affinity Designer. Beyond the tool-specific classes, there is content that applies to all artists regardless of medium or tools, including desktop users and traditional artists. If you’re new to digital art tools, The Studio includes beginner resources for both Procreate and Affinity Designer so you can learn as you go. 

Whether you’re brand new to art or just new to digital tools, The Studio has you covered. Members have access to a large library of beginner-friendly classes for Procreate and Affinity Designer to help take you from fear to flourishing.

While you may find some of Liz’s content on YouTube and Skillshare, the vast majority of tools and skills related to selling your art are shared inside The Studio.  You’ll find a lot of the theory over on YouTube, but the actual steps and resources you need to make it happen are all in the membership.  

Plus, Liz is present in The Studio in a way that simply isn’t possible on other platforms. If you want to unlock selling your art regularly, The Studio is where you want to be.

The Studio includes a growing library of 50+ classes, 500+ resources, live monthly drawing sessions and critiques, Studio Chats, and a monthly trend report, all exclusive to Studio members. 


Want to see exactly what’s inside? Browse the Studio Library.

Class topics are chosen based on trending art and design topics and what members are actively talking about and requesting. Member questions, feedback, and polls in the community help shape what Liz creates next. When you join, you’ll have the chance to share what you’re most interested in and help shape what Liz creates next. 

In the Live Drawing Sessions, Liz brings a project idea that you draw together. A few days in advance, downloads and resources are sent to help you start brainstorming. You can follow along as closely or loosely as you’d like, ask questions, show your work in progress, and sip on your favorite drink! Liz draws in Procreate, but you can use any app or traditional media you like.

In the Live Critique, you can submit your work and questions for Liz to respond to live. You can share artwork, shops, or social media profiles for feedback on style, marketing, or strategy. There is no submission limit, so you can submit anytime you have new work or questions to share.

All live sessions including the Live Drawing Session and Live Critique are recorded. All Studio members will be able to access the replay in their Studio Library by the following day.

During the live sessions, Liz leads the session and answers questions in real time.

In the Studio Community, Liz is present so members can always get her eyes on their work or questions.

Through Studio Chats, members can apply for a recorded conversation with Liz on whatever topic they need help with.

Studio Members can watch the classes and get the resources on any device, either through a web browser or The Studio App.

The Studio App is available for download on iOS devices. Access all your classes, resources, and the community from anywhere on your iPhone or iPad (and even offline viewing). Download The Studio by Liz Kohler Brown App.

The membership platform will keep track of what you have watched, and you can build customizable playlists to keep track of what you want to watch next.
