I teach the principles and practice of design and illustration with a focus on perception, form language, and critical thinking.
Independent Study
In multi-session independent studies we decide your learning goals together based on your desired outcomes. I then design and guide you through customized instruction tailored specifically for you.
The ACademy launches in 2027
Alvalyn Creative ACademy, an online educational initiative offering Alvalyn’s college-level courses in design, drawing, illustration, and creative business, but without the costly enrollment fees of degree and certificate programs. Currently in soft-launch with a few fundamental courses available, the full launch is coming in 2027.
My courses range from fundamentals and principles of design, color, drawing, design history and critical practice to professional preparation and entrepreneurship — the very same courses I teach with world class design schools are accessible and affordable for you without sacrificing substance and quality.
My approach centers on visual perception and critical thinking while at the same time developing and honing technical skills.
All courses are on demand and self-paced, with options for premium add-on including assignments, office hours, and individual critique.
