Does this sound like you?

You have a whole heap of designs that aren’t organised

You’re second guessing what to include in your portfolio

Feel overwhelmed and don’t know where to start

You’re dreading tech struggles with creating a digital portfolio

Worrying you aren’t “good enough”

You want to pitch but don’t feel ready yet

I’m here to tell you it doesn’t have to be that way.

Design a professional portfolio in 4 weeks.

If you’ve been sitting on a folder full of designs but have no idea how to pull it all together into a portfolio… this course is for you.

If you’ve been dreaming of working with your favourite brands, but second-guessing every step (What do I include? Where do I pitch? Am I even ready?)… you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

This mini course is designed to take the guesswork out of creating a portfolio and help you finally feel ready to pitch your work with confidence.

You'll learn how to:

  • Curate and organize your artwork into a professional, client-ready portfolio

  • Understand what art directors and brands actually want to see

  • Avoid common portfolio mistakes that could be holding you back

  • Build your confidence so you're not just hoping to land dream clients—you know exactly how and where to share your portfolio.

You don’t need a perfect body of work or fancy tech skills. You just need a little structure, support, and the right next step—and that’s exactly what this course gives you.

Meet your teacher

Hey, I’m Ashleigh Fish, artist, surface pattern designer, educator, and your biggest cheerleader.

I originally studied education at university with plans to become a teacher, but after graduating, life took me on a different (and beautiful) path. Travel, motherhood, and a creative spark led me to discover my true passion: surface pattern design.

Over the years, I’ve had the joy of collaborating with brands like RJR Fabrics, Alice & Ames, Sand + Fog, Hawthorne Supply Co., and Loomwell, bringing my hand-painted patterns to life on everything from fabric to clothing and home goods.

Now, I’m here to help you do the same.

Inside this mini course, I’m sharing everything I’ve learned about building a portfolio that not only reflects your unique style, but actually gets you noticed by the clients you want to work with. My goal is to make the process feel simple, encouraging, and doable, so you can take confident steps toward your dream collaborations.

Let’s build something beautiful together.
