Mentorship for Children's Book Illustration

Carli is a fantastic mentor! She works with you individually at the level of help you need. My skills in making a professional looking dummy for a picture book greatly improved after the mentorship. Highly recommend signing up with Carli!

Carlianne is wonderful to work with! I’m halfway through my mentorship and love having her as my mentor. She’s met me where I am at, and her practical approach is helping me break down the steps so I keep going. When giving feedback, she shares from her own experience and resources as an author-illustrator, which I find incredibly helpful. She’s kind, caring, and fun to talk to. Highly recommend!

Carlianne’s children's book illustration mentorship was an exceptionally valuable experience. Right from the start, she took the time to help me set clear goals, and her support throughout the entire program was consistent and thoughtful.

Her approach is wonderfully hands-on. In every session, she provided feedback and practical tips on technical skills. During our time together, I developed my book dummy, designed new characters, and significantly strengthened my overall portfolio.

Beyond her expertise, Carlianne is kind, encouraging, and very flexible with scheduling, making it easy to fit the mentorship into my routine. I highly recommend her program to any illustrator looking for structured, insightful guidance to advance their work!

This mentorship has meant the world to me! It is such a great value for the price! Carlianne is a natural teacher as well as a brilliant artist. I have been singing her praises to everyone I know. I myself am a retired teacher who taught music, dance and fine arts for 28 years so I have some experience in creativity in education.

No matter what your current level, if you are still a dreamer, or close to finishing your project, Carlianne’s mentorship will get you where you want to go. She can see what you are shooting for, help you define your own style, and teach you the technical skills to make your dream storybook come to life and be ready to market.

I would recommend this mentorship to anyone who has the dream to create their own picture book! You won’t regret it! Go for it!
