Join Ali Sabet, character designer, illustrator and brand identity specialist in this webinar focusing on contemporary character and graphic design using the Hypercreative Method and a Wacom Tablet.

The HCM is the platform that allows you to create and develop ANY creative project rapidly and at the highest technical and aesthetic quality. Whether you consider yourself an artist trained to draw in a traditional sense, or a graphic designer creating the next great logo, this webinar will open your mind to a level of creativity that you have never experienced before.

In 2005, Ali founded Mojizu.com, a community of over 50,000 members who showcase their Moji’s (characters). Today, it is the only contemporary character design community in the world. "I believe characters are an important part of society. They represent our human nature in the simplest way. They evoke emotions and carry our messages effectively with a touch of humor—they have done so since the days of the caveman!”

Learn how to create powerful iconic characters and identities WITH character almost effortlessly. Drawing skills are NOT needed; Just a spirit of fun and your own creative flair. This is about having a great time while creating simple and powerful characters and graphics. Using the Hypercreative Method, anyone can do it!

Andrew has done what most of us dream of doing; which is to create a day to day experience that we enjoy. The fact that he brings so much joy to others with his creatures is an absolute bonus. I have been following andrews progress since 2005 when I started mojizu.com. I remember asking him to join the community and that's how we connected initally. I'm really excited that I got to meet him last year and It was a pleasure to interview him this year at Comic Con 2011. He is truly and inspiration to all artists. You may see more of his work on The Creatures In My Head website! Enjoy!!

Using simple methods and yogic theory, this unique guide focuses on the art of drawing as a way to unblock creativity and create artistic confidence. Both practicing and beginning artists will learn to develop drawing skills, overcome creative blocks, and enter the meditative state in order to find creative connections and confidence. Featuring full-color examples from professional artists, three different drawing methods, and exercises tested and developed in the author's own drawing class, this is an invaluable tool for artists, writers, musicians, and all who wish to access their creative strengths and live inspired, authentic lives.

To become hypercreative you need to open your heart. That means that you have to have a clear state of mind. But you must also overcome fear of judgment and start putting down your ideas on paper. Sketching and drawing is the segway to freedom to create. Cat has such a wonderful way of allowing you to free your inner artist. I love the exercises in the book and I've been talking about this type of work for years now. I'm really glad that Cat Bennet has illustrated these points and techniques here in one book! Please read this and share your breakthroughs here.
