What does it take to turn an uncommon technique into a commercially successful career? What do Art directors and designers need to know to effectively commission unusual artwork?

Margaret Cusack is an illustrator and graphic designer who creates "realism in stitchery and fabric." She has designed and stitched Broadway show posters, a Time Magazine cover, even soft sculpture fish for "Monty Python's Spamalot." Her 2005 retrospective exhibition at the Museum of American Illustration in New York will travel to the Hanten Museum in Logan, Kansas in 2010. Signed copies of her book, Picture Your World in Applique published by Watson-Guptill will be available.

Ellen Rixford is a multimedia sculptor who specializes in mechanical figures, automata, puppets, displays, dimensional illustration, and miniature sets. She has had a solo exhibit at the Museum of American Illustration at the Society of Illustrators in New York, and a one person show at ArtSpace in Tokyo, Japan. She has taught and guest lectured in many American art schools, and has done lecture tours in Japan and China. She is also the author of the book Three-Dimensional Illustration, published by Watson-Guptill, and is now working on a book on puppet and automaton mechanics.

If you've been expanding your offerings into web design but aren't really sure that you're doing it the right way, then join Bud Kraus, web design instructor and consultant. Bud will discuss the most important topics needed to design and produce successful web deliverables for your clients.

Bud will cover:
What web design skills do clients and employers expect me to know?
Is it necessary to code web pages by hand?
Is Dreamweaver still a preferred web design tool? What other
desktop and online applications do I need to know?
What role do online publishing services like WordPress or Drupal
play in publishing online?
Where does SEO fit into what I should be doing?
Do I need to learn a programming language such as Javascript, PHP or Perl?
What is the typical design/production process in the age of web templates?

The fee is $15 for members and $25 for non-members. When you register you will be sent information about how to dial in, as well as any applicable handouts from our speakers. And, as a special bonus, all registrants will receive an audio file of the class.

For those unable to attend and want to learn what was covered, classes will be available as downloadable audio files for the same price. More information on these files will be posted on the Guild’s web site as the files become available.
