Frequently Asked Questions
I thought I signed up for Illustration Isolation? What is this?
We started Illustration Isolation in 2020 during the start of the pandemic to give our art community something to rally behind while we were all holed up in our homes.
A lot has changed since then and we never thought our community would grow to what it is today.
We decided to change the name to something that is more in the spirit of the energy our community brings together every Thursday, so we chose 'Drawing Hive'.
I can't find the photo reference. Where is it?
You can view the photo reference here. It changes every week and is updated 1 to 2 hours before the livestream.

Will my camera or audio be enabled when I attend?
Participant's do NOT have audio or video capabilities. As a participant you are invited to use the chat, ask questions, and most importantly, share your drawings with us on Instagram before the end of the show.
What is the show like?
Drawing Hive is part podcast, part classroom, and part workshop. Each episode we invite a handful of our favorite artists to chat with us about their lives, careers, and sometimes just their favorite documentary they just watched. Our favorite part of Illustration Isolation is answering audience questions about the tools of the trade, industry insights, and sharing career wisdom.
What skill level is recommended for attending?
Drawing Hive is all ages-friendly and invites artists of all skill levels to join and draw along. Whether you are a total beginner, just getting started with drawing, or a working professional illustrator, you're welcome to join in the fun and share your work with us.
How do I share my drawings with the artists on the panel?
To share your work with us, be sure to post your art to Instagram between each pose using #drawinghive and @visualartspassage. Don't wait until the end to post your work. We are not able to view Instagram stories and we will not see images posted by private accounts.
