Hi. I’m Chloe, a learning & development specialist turned illustrator-entrepreneur. I started Longstride Illustration in May of 2022 as a way to connect my top passions for continuous learning and for drawing.
My mission is to create and share instructional content for anyone who wants to get into pen & ink and improve fundamental drawing skills. As well, to help leverage the potential of self-directed learning as an artist when exploring something new or else aiming to progress toward mastery.
My line art illustrations are primarily black and white and I’m most inspired when drawing birds, nature and characters.
Some of the art heroes who have influenced my style include Grzegorz Rosiński, Bernie Wrightson, Kentaro Miura, Takehiko Inoue, Franklin Booth, and Phillip Harris.
You can follow my work on YouTube, Instagram, and Pinterest for creative ideas, tips and processes on developing drawing skills, and some behind-the-scenes of managing a small-art business.
