My mentor helped me identify what market my work is best suited for and not only provided tailored assignments and feedback for the duration of the mentorship, but also gave me direction on what to work on after the mentorship had ended. I'm happy to report that six months after ending the program I now have representation with an agency! I am so grateful to have taken part in this program and highly recommend it to any illustrator looking for that extra push to take their work to the next level.

PATH mentorship helped me greatly in improving my portfolio pieces. Our mentor, Ed shares advice and portfolio reviews based on what the industry needs right now. He gives genuine and very actionable things on how to go about it as well.

Amazing experience overall! The team is always in constant communication and always open to answering questions! Personalized, genuine, and valuable feedback to achieve your professional goals! I do recommend being part of any kind of mentorship, it's life-changing!

I really enjoyed the "It's Me: Path to Being a Pro" course. It offers professional-level insights for illustrators, taught by an instructor with extensive experience and deep involvement in the industry. I highly recommend it to illustrators who are unsure about how to position themselves, how to create a portfolio that impresses clients and agencies, how to set rates for various projects, or even how to promote themselves to land the right kind of work. Having an instructor provide direct, close guidance can make a real difference and help you move your illustration career forward.

Everyone I met was truly amazing and helpful. Any issues that arose were quickly resolved and the experience was worth every penny. I would highly recommend ITSme to anyone looking to advance their illustrative skills and career.

I have understood a lot about the market and the digital illustration world , the mentorship will guide you to find more confidence in what you do and in what you are aiming for . Also the last call with the ceo Ed Burns is very helpful to gain consciousness of what you have to do and what you have to work on . I recommend to do the mentorship to everyone is trying to start a career in the world of the illustration but also to everyone is passionate with art ,painting and drawing in general, is really helpful to make you a freelance artist either represented by an agency.

I joined the Illustration Mentorship without a clearly defined style and with the challenge of building a portfolio from scratch. Looking back, I couldn't have asked for better guidance! Aurora was an incredible mentor throughout the entire process. She had a remarkable ability to recognize my strengths while also identifying the areas where I needed to grow, and her feedback was always thoughtful, constructive, and encouraging. I never felt like she was trying to change my artistic voice, instead, she helped me develop it and push it further. Beyond improving my illustrations, the mentorship gave me a much clearer understanding of how the industry works and what is expected at a professional level. Learning how to respond to feedback and develop portfolio pieces with a commercial mindset has been invaluable. Meeting with Ed was another highlight of the program. His commercial perspective, industry knowledge, and genuine enthusiasm gave me a great deal of confidence and helped me better understand how to position myself moving forward. Overall, this mentorship has been an invaluable experience, and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking to grow as an illustrator while gaining a realistic understanding of the industry.

A wonderful experience. I took part in the spring mentoring program, and it gave me the opportunity to improve my work and, most importantly, to finally understand what my positioning in the market could be. My mentor, Aurora, was incredibly helpful and kind, and her advice truly gave new life to my work. I received two briefs, exactly the kind of brief I'd want to include in my portfolio. The chat with Ed was genuinely stimulating: he explained how I could position myself commercially, what my portfolio is currently communicating, and how to speak to the market to get the work I'd like.
