Karishma Chugani is an artist, designer, writer, and illustrator who studied fashion design with printing at Central Saint Martin’s College of Art and Design in London. She also has a Masters in Fine Arts from Goldsmiths University in Design Futures. In her career she has worked as a fashion designer, published several books, and participated in collective and solo exhibitions. Though her work varies from one project to another, she is ultimately fascinated by storytelling!

In her online course “Inside a Creative Notebook: Explore Your Illustration Process”, students will learn to unlock their creativity with illustration techniques to record and develop your creative process for artistic projects. You will walk through Karishma’s creative process, learn to overcome creative blocks, and capture your inspirations and ideas in a single place! If you’d like to build on your creative idea by crafting your own storybook, be sure to check out Karishma’s first Domestika course: Paper Cutting Techniques for Storytelling.

In order to get you started we wanted to offer you a free download from the course! The book Bordar En Papel by Atsumi, Minako Chiba and Mari Kamio is a practical introduction on how to get started with the embroidery technique on paper. The teacher has included a selection of the pages which really helped her understand what materials to choose and the basic stitches to get started with. This copy is in Spanish, but if you are interested in ordering a copy in English, you can get a copy here!
