Classes for the Self Made Artist
Whether you're finally opening Procreate or finally ready to build the business — you're in the right place.
Make Your Art & Find Your Style
For traditional artists who are ready to learn Procreate and finally develop a signature illustration style.
Design Your Own Products
For creators with a strong identity or niche who are ready to put their art on real, sellable products — and build something with a reason behind it.
Build a Brand & Create Income
You already have the talent. What you're missing is the roadmap — pricing, audience, systems, and strategy. This is the business education working artists actually need.
The thing about learning from Stacie Bloomfield is this: she's not teaching theory.
She built Gingiber from a nursery art doodle into a multi-million dollar product business carried in over 1,200 stores nationwide. Then she built a second multi-million dollar business teaching artists how to do the same. At the same time. From Arkansas.
16 years as a working professional illustrator. 50,000 artists taught. Two published books — including The Artist's Side Hustle, which sold out of its first print run in four months. Featured on The Today Show, Martha Stewart, Better Homes & Gardens, and Country Living.
She didn't stumble into credibility. She built it the same way she'll teach you to build yours — one decision at a time.
