Imagine how good it feels to...
🕒 In a few months (maybe even weeks) - celebrate the first sales of your art
🕒 In 1 year - have stable growing sales and have your own portfolio with gorgeous pattern collection

Let's compare to not taking action today...
to doing nothing while going back to wondering how other artists and designers create the amazing lifestyle and dream businesses for themselves.
🕒 In a few months - wish you knew how other artists are doing it.
🕒 In 1 year - promise yourself again to go after your dreams, but quit as you don't know where to start.
🕒 In 2 years - try for a few weeks and give up because you are not sure if it is working.
🕒 In 5 years - continue wishing that one day you will...one day...
My amazing, creative friend, let me share one of the wisest things I learned on my creative journey:
The years will pass no matter what, but in a year from now, you will wish that you had started today.
I'd love to save you time
The great news is that I discovered and came up with a lot of time-saving systems, actions, templates, tools that will cut down your time spent on learning and creating by MONTHS or even years. I took me 12 years to create these systems, but you can learn them, implement and see results in just a few weeks.
Imagine a world where...
___
You create art and designs with joy
You know what kinds of designs sell
You have your system and feel organized
You have daily sales that grow more and more
Let's pattern it up! :)
I saw that I was not alone and that many talented, creative people felt lost about where to start to create income with their art.
That's why I created the Pattern It Up course.
I wanted to give fellow creative designers a way to learn how to make their own, unique vector repeat pattern designs, create pattern collections and start selling them online and licensing their work while building a creative business of their dreams. The tools that save me so much time are all included in this course for you to get started in no time.

Why learn from Oksancia over other schools?
While it is useful to learn from multiple approaches, I always invent my own systems and implement them over the years before I create a course and teach them. I teach my own unique systems and create my own unique templates, and action sets, and we even code our own proprietary scripts and software that we give away with our courses. This way you are definitely getting a unique program that is not available anywhere else and is based on my 15+ years of experience as a self-employed artist, designer, and creative online business owner.
Here is what my student Mindy shared about the course:
"Pattern It Up course was really useful for me. I am able to work really super fast with this pattern design system. And I know how to plan my work and grow my skills. And how to market my patterns in different ways. The most useful parts were Symbols on Repeat system, actions, creating online shops. Keep teaching us more and more:)"
- Prarthana Moorthy, beta student of Pattern It Up course
"I am no longer afraid of Adobe Illustrator. In fact, I look forward to the time I set aside to work with the program. Also, I really enjoy Oksancia's voice. You just hear the enthusiasm and encouragement coming out of it."
- Erica Diazoni, beta student of Pattern It Up course
"I watched so many courses of pattern design and illustrator skills, they were very good and helpful, but Oksana made the first course for pattern designers who want to grow their business quickly and successfully. I like very much her vision and tips and tricks in illustrator. Work with these directions is simple and so efficient."

And here are more of my amazing students sharing their feedback about the course:
"Pattern It Up course covers it all! From cumulating creative idea to presenting, and the bonus Powerful Pattern Prompts mini course really help! And it is suitable for a learner which has zero backgrounds, all explained very clear"
- Elfi Yang , Co-Founder, Impressive Company
"When I saw your video about the Pattern It Up course and began using your Symbols on Repeat system, I knew that this was the missing piece that I had needed to get my patterns to the next level. If someone is wondering about purchasing the course, I would tell them that it is worth so much more beyond the price of the course. The templates and set of actions that come with the Symbols on Repeat
template have really changed my way of working for the better. I will never go back to the old way now that I have these valuable tools and amazing course knowledge!"

You might be thinking, will it work for YOU?
If you are willing to put an effort into learning the system and take time implementing it, you are very likely to achieve success. Just please keep in mind, this is NOT a get-rich-quick scheme! This is a creative business that brings you lots of joy and satisfaction as well as income, but you need to work on it as on any good thing in your life.
+ I give you a generous 30-day money back guarantee, so you can try it and see for yourself with no risk for you.
But, I don't have time!
My course is designed in a way that you can take it at your own pace. You can watch one video per week and implement 30 minutes per day. You will have lifetime access to this course so that you can work at your own schedule.
What if I am not a designer yet?
Not all textile designers can draw :) You can create beautiful abstract and geometric designs with no drawing skills involved. In my class, I teach how to draw your pattern elements. I teach you step-by-step basic skills first and slowly take you to more advanced skills. If you can't draw, I give you recommendations on how to use basic shapes and elements such as circles and stars while you get comfortable with the system. Later you can work on your artistic skills if you want.
Can I learn this somewhere else? Can I take a local class?
This is my own unique system that I didn't learn anywhere else. I created it myself with the help of my software-developer husband, so you can't find it anywhere else.
Does the content in this course overlap with your other courses?
No! All of our courses don't overlap but instead complement each other so you can be sure to learn new things with each course.
"I think it is an excellent course as I've learned much. The most helpful part of the course for me was the automation side of making patterns that frees up my time to make more patterns. I also liked the way Pattern It Up shows the way to organize my files."
- Jimena Garcia, beta student of Pattern It Up course
"I'd been learning bits and pieces of pattern design for a few months when I found your Pattern It Up course. I was hoping to find an all-in-one resource to be able to put together my disjointed *very* beginner pattern making skills - but what I found was so much MORE. You're not just teaching how to make a pattern, but how to put together a comprehensive and practical system for creating collections and selling what you make. I've found the lessons to be so full of useful information that I'm watching the videos multiple times. I find I learn something new every time I go through a lesson again:)
Really, I can't thank you enough for generously sharing your knowledge and experience in this course! "
