Hi, I'm Will.
My illustrations can help you visualize your ideal future, so you can keep on the path to being your best self without getting side tracked.
I call them “Future You” portraits, and they can show you where you’re moving towards, so you can stay on track.
Embody a new mindset
Connect with nature
Take up journalling
Strengthen your network
Live your values
I’m an illustrator and personal development enthusiast. The new year always fills me with bright energy to try new things. With my vision encapsulated in an image I can look at every day, I know I can keep moving in the right direction.
I am a multi passionate artist, and my special interests have included the Tarot as well as self-hypnosis and dream interpretation. Sometimes a very literal interpretation of someone’s dream or goal is the most appropriate, but I have an ocean of possible symbols and iconography to draw on when needed.
Dr Gia Marson: The Benefits of Visualisation
Taylor's future self has a fun and varied calendar and makes sure to replenish her energy (represented by the flower seeds) as well as create wonderful experiences for others (the flowers)
"I LOVE IT! Wow. What an incredible talent to bring someone's future to life through art! 🎨 Thank YOU!"
Alexandria's future self is living in London and loves to travel. She makes enough so she can send her "money angels" to do good all over the world.
"Thank you! This perfectly captures my vision for this year and brings a smile to my face every time I look at it. I'm amazed that Will produced such an inspiring vision with just a few sentences from me. It's on the wall in front of my desk for daily inspiration."
Rachel's future self embraces her creative potential and works on her writing projects without the goal of mastery or perfection.
"Will is so talented and a pleasure to work with! Every time I look at this piece, I smile and feel energized. It reminds me to stay positive and keep going!"
For example:
A group of people who vividly imagined their lives in the distant future were 3 times as likely to sign-up for an automatic savings account.
Experiment participants that wrote in detail about a distant future self were more likely to exercise in the days following.
In a field experiment, high schoolers that received texts from an avatar of their future self were less likely to engage in delinquent and anti-social behavior.
Just sign up and I’ll drop you a line some time. It’s not a regular newsletter or a feed, I just send an email occasionally when I have a sale on or a new thing. Your data is safe with me (and Mailchimp), unsubscribe any time.
Get started by simply dropping me an email to say “I’m interested!” I’ll ask you some questions about yourself and your plans, dreams and visions for the future. Together, we’ll create a description of the image, using words and sketches.
A Future You portrait is $160 during this New Year’s promotion. Once you’re happy with the concept, you’ll pay a $30 deposit and I’ll get to work. The remainder is due on delivery of a high quality, print ready file, as well as a web friendly version.
You can get a print version using any photo or document printer online or local to you. Get stickers printed, or a mug. I’ll leave that part up to you.
Just drop me a line at hello@bigheartartclub.org and mention the Future You portraits. We’ll take it from there. No obligation to buy.
Are you a coach? Do you help people be their best self? Would your clients love these?
I’m looking for people to collaborate with. Contact me to see if you could offer Future You portraits as one of your coaching packages.

Big Heart Art Club is my dream for this year. It will be a non-profit bringing creative workshops and art classes to neighbourhoods with a lot of deprivation here in Bristol, UK. So that’s nothing to do with this promotion other than that’s what I’m raising some money for, and I’m using the email and Stripe payment system, so you may see the name pop up.
OK, that’s it now, thanks! Drop me a line. <3
