Learn PROFESSIONAL Computer Graphics & Digital Illustration at your own pace

"Doom and Gloom, Losing Business,

Can't Pay the Bills..."

Isn't it about time you worked SMARTER, rather
than HARDER?

I've been flooded with requests from computer
graphic artists and designers and all kinds of learners, and they all want to know the same thing...

Where can I learn more?

 

You've downloaded the 25 Essential Photoshop Moves book and are working your way through it. I have countless responses from all over the world telling me how you're going, and one common denominator of them all is how EASY TO UNDERSTAND the book is.

That's great to hear, thank you.

Because that's my point of difference. I have taught thousands of people the skills required to become graphic designers and computer artists, and one thing everybody agrees on is how easy to follow my lessons are. Even the advanced techniques.

But these 25 moves in my latest book are only a fraction of what you need to know about computer graphics before you can call yourself an expert or get a job using these skills. And I'm now getting requests for more.

The sort of questions I'm receiving again and again include;

Where can I find out about other programs used in computer graphic design?

What programs should I be using?

What's the difference between vector and bitmap and when should I use each one?

Do you have any other books or lessons I can follow?

and many more...

 

The simple answer for everyone is;

YES, I do have the answers

 

  • Do you want to gain the skills that can turn you into a PROFESSIONAL Graphic Designer?
  • Do you want to Increase Your Earnings Potential by 1000%
  • Do you want to tap into the MASSIVE International Market for Skilled Graphic Designers, Web Designers, Logo Designers and Computer Graphic Artists?
  • Do you want to get Your Career off to a Great Start?
  • Do you want to start from the very beginning?

Do you have to pay thousands of dollars to learn these skills?

 

The short answer is NO.

I have a resource that will take you from ABSOLUTE BEGINNER to EXPERIENCED NEAR-PROFESSIONAL in as long as it takes for you to complete the course.

 

I have to admit that I was merely 'dabbling' in computer graphic design before I was introduced to Gary's (Learn Professional Computer Graphics & Digital Illustration) course. As a result I learned so many new things that I landed a job at a design firm that had rejected me on two previous occasions!
Jenny J, Graphic Designer

This course has been written using ALL of the information I gave gathered over the decades, and has been assembled in such a way that anyone can access it from any point, no matter what their current skill level or experience.

In short, this is the source of knowledge that I would have KILLED FOR when I was starting out 20 years ago. It would have saved me YEARS and had me EARNING the big $$$ so much more quickly

As a largely self-trained graphic designer I have found (Learn Professional Computer Graphics & Digital Illustration) an invaluable source of the many 'inside secrets' and rules of thumb that separate the Industry Professional from the Untrained Enthusiast. If you need real-life solutions to bring your graphics under control then look no further!
Ian Witham, Graphic Designer

I recently completed your course Learn Computer Graphics and Digital Illustration, purchased last April. It's taken me a time to get through it for one reason and another which I won't go in to here.
I thought it was great - only wish I'd found it 20 years ago, but then I suppose you probably weren't experienced enough to write it then.
My aim of taking the course, aside from improving my graphic design skills, was to move on from my job in London. My role is mainly laying out pages for publications, not a lot of creativity involved in this. Haven't managed to find a better paid position as yet, but have been getting interviews.
During the duration of the course I managed to secure some extra work to design an exhibition stand, so it helped cover the cost of the outlay, so it paid for itself. I also secured a newsletter project from a friend...
Apologies for the long e-mail and thanks again for helping my iron out some of my rough design edges.

That's almost 900 pages of instruction, advice, tips, tricks and KNOWLEDGE, and it includes over 600 illustrations and images.

But don't be intimidated by the size... You can pick and choose the sections you wish to follow. Your dictionary or your encyclopedia might be huge, but you don't read every word do you?

At last I've found a course that covers all my needs. I especially like the prepress sections and the advice on getting good results from difficult scans, something I have to do every day in my job. The explanations and diagrams are most helpful... even I can understand them. The author's sense of humour made it much more readable than traditional manuals. I'd recommend (Learn Professional Computer Graphics & Digital Illustration) to anyone with any connection to computer graphics. Compulsive...

What's a resource like this worth?

To accumulate all this knowledge and training in any other format or from any other source would normally cost you as much as $6000. It would also take you several years - it took me almost twenty!

I could sell each one of these course books INDIVIDUALLY for $97, adding up to $970 for the set. Which would still be a huge saving on what it would cost you to accumulate this knowledge from other sources.

But the Learn Professional Computer Graphics & Digital Illustration Self-Paced Training Course is not $970

It's not $570

It's not even $270!

Instead, you could soon be learning Professional Techniques in Computer Graphic Design and Digital Illustration for the bargain investment of $147.

That's right, a fraction of what it's really worth or what it cost me to research, assemble and write.

STOP PRESS!

I will further discount this course for subscribers of the Electric Artist Newsletter.

For the next 10 days you can download the entire course for $47!

That's a saving of a further $100 on the already discounted price of $147.

I picked up the (Learn Professional Computer Graphics & Digital Illustration) course about six weeks before graduating with my Visual Communication Degree. In my very first job interview it was the things I'd picked up from the course that impressed my interviewer the most. She is now my new boss...
Selina Ruscoe, Design Graduate

I have run a reasonably successful desktop publishing business for seven years. But there have always been jobs that were beyond my ability, and I worried that the service I offered my clients wasn't a complete one.
A friend put me onto the Learn Professional Graphics course, and I can now offer logo design and much more.

But don't take my word for it on how great this package is. Listen to what people just like you have to say about it:

I have been involved in developing Intranets and software for large government and corporate organisations. Each of these projects has required a large amount of technical detail, but have always found myself spending a considerable amount of time to design, layout and simple graphics for these projects.

Since buying and reading this course I have found myself spending much less time on the layout and graphics of a software program and spending more time on developing the functionality of the software. Isn't that what being a programmer is all about?

This course went beyond my expectations and while I have tried to read a lot of other graphics and design books this course is by far the easiest to follow. The projects inside the course emphasise the main points taught in the books as well as let the designer match their projects with what’s in the course. "Congratulations to the author on a fun course that is easy to pick up and refer to anytime...
Ben Fellowes, Software and web developer, Project Manager

I'm currently a computer graphic design student at (a tertiary training institution) in Wellington, NZ. I was lucky enough to get my hands on an early copy of (Learn Professional Computer Graphics & Digital Illustration) and now I use it every day. I especially like the tutorials and exercises as they've taught me heaps of Photoshop and Illustrator.

My only problem is when the other students in the class borrow my books and I have to go find them. I wish they'd buy their own!...
Aloema, Design Student

I was quite intrigued about the course when I was first told about it, and now that I'm reading it I am finding it even better than I had imagined it would be...

...These books are far more in depth than I thought they would be, and they're delivered in a manner that is easy to digest. Usually I find it difficult for me to take in information by reading, as I am normally a hands-on learner and have to physically do something to learn and remember.

I am, however, amazed at how easy these books were to read and how interesting they are. I get quite excited when I find something that I have not fully understood finally clicking together. I am actually finding the course enjoyable to read. I didn't think that reference books were supposed to be read from cover to cover but these are going to be. I am reading (the course) as though it was a novel. Brilliant...
Denny Noble, Architectural Technician

As they say, the proof is in the pudding. And these people are super happy. Just like you'll be.

You can't leave this page empty handed, can you?
