Join us October 12th as we host the master of vector, illustrative designer Von Glitschka. Learn how to think through and approach your design ideas by cultivating concepts, exploring insights and deriving context through clever methods. By doing so, you can then uncover that conceptual jewel of a great idea, ignite your creative process and build upon it successfully moving forward.

1.  Defining and mapping the often nebulous process of idea generation.
2.  Systematic methods to augment and expand your own creative process.
3.  Practical methodology to become a better thinking designer.

Design follows an idea. Therefore, the foundation for good design is only as strong as the underline concept.

Von is principal of Glitschka Studios and has worked in the communication arts industry for over 23 years. His work reflects the symbiotic relationship between design and illustration. This duality of skills within his own creative arsenal, inspired him to coin the phrase and title of "Illustrative Designer."

In 2002, he founded Glitschka Studios, a multi-disciplinary creative firm. The studio shines as a hired gun for ad agencies, medium to large design firms, and in-house corporate art departments working on a diverse range of illustrative design projects.

His exuberant graphics have garnered numerous design and illustration awards and have appeared in such publications as Communication Arts, Print, HOW Design, Society of Illustrators, Graphis, American Illustration, and Logo Lounge II, III, IV and V.
