NEW! From Art to Income: An Illustrator’s Guide
October 2 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm EDT
Are you an illustrator looking to expand your reach and sell your creations online?
Join us for an inspiring workshop designed to help illustrators navigate the vibrant creative landscape of Quebec.
Our guest speaker, Cara Carmina will speak about the various revenue streams available to you, from freelance projects to licensing your art. Learn how to effectively use e-commerce to sell your creative products and merchandise.
We’ll also dive into the children’s book industry, offering tips on how to break into and connect with publishers.
When Cara Carmina arrived in Montreal 15 years ago, she had no network and didn’t speak the language. Today, she is a published illustrator and author of over 20 children’s books and sells her products online.
This workshop is your roadmap to thriving as an illustrator in Quebec!
Speaker: Cara Carmina, Illustrator, Designer and Entrepreneur
Don’t miss this chance to turn your illustrations into a successful career!
About the speaker:
“My real name is Norma Andreu, but most people call me Cara, (feel free to call me that too!)”
Cara Carmina is a Mexican illustrator, author and textile artist living in Montreal, QC since 2009. She has a background in graphic design (Mexico City, Fine Arts Institute), drawing (Florence, Istituto Spinelli) and fashion and children illustration (NYC, Parsons).
Cara is also a designer and entrepreneur! She wears multiple hats to keep her career as an autonomous artist afloat and to nurture her passion for art.
Cara has 19 children’s books published as an illustrator (and she also wrote the text for 6 of these books.) She draws with her sewing machine, makes dolls, and has her work displayed on the streets of Rome and Montreal.
Cara strives to portray the beauty of simple things, transforming a piece of paper or thread into something beautiful. Her art is expressive, colorful and whimsical, inspired by her Mexican roots.
