A global membership for artists and illustrators curated by Inkygoodness.
You’re invited to join our brand new membership community for artists and illustrators: Inkygoodness Collective (@inkygoodnesscollective)
Back in 2022 we invited a small cohort of 60 artists and illustrators inside our community, giving them a sneak peak at Inkygoodness Collective and since then our community has continued to grow on an invitation-only basis to 320 members today.
Doors will open again on 2nd May 2024 and we are super excited to grow our community this year!
Why Join?
Designed to support and connect artists and illustrators, Inkygoodness Collective you to join a network of likeminded creatives, and give you access to workshops, group sessions, industry mentoring, online events, digital resources, discounts on our courses, and the opportunity to submit your work for future exhibitions curated by Inkygoodness.
Why Do I Need to Answer Screening Questions?
We’re passionate about cultivating a community of likeminded creatives who are committed to forging a career in commercial illustration. We aim to be as inclusive as possible, whilst also ensuring we stay true to our values and our mission to support emerging and practising creatives on their career journey. We do not discriminate by age, race, gender or experience level – our members come from all age groups and backgrounds; from graduates and emerging artists through to seasoned creatives who are pivoting their career path from design, art direction and teaching.
Our screening process gives us the opportunity to find out more about potential members, and ensures we invite people in for the right reasons – artists and illustrators who are ready to be mentored and whom we believe will play an active role in shaping our community and the future of the collective.

Who we are
Inkygoodness is a global community focused on connecting, inspiring and developing artists and creative businesses. Founded by Lisa Hassell in 2010, Inkygoodness started as a series of exhibitions and events before launching an online blog. Following a relaunch in April 2021, Inkygoodness pivoted into mentoring; offering provide portfolio crits, workshops and a group coaching programme.
Over the last 2 years our Instagram community has more than doubled to 65k with Inkygoodness hosting regular IGTV interviews with leading creatives and adding to their course offering with the launch of Make Your Mark, a 12-week intensive programme designed to kickstart your illustration career. Make Your Mark returns in June as a new six month bootcamp offering industry mentoring, creative briefs, masterclasses, portfolio development and much more. Applications will launch in April 2024.
With a focus on personal and professional development for artists and illustrators, Inkygoodness is committed to engaging with emerging talent, sharing knowledge, offering support and cultivating a creative community for artists and illustrators to connect and thrive.
