Do you want to learn how to draw Anime digital portraits?  Do you want to learn about proportions and various tips and tricks for Procreate?  Do you want to learn shading and highlighting techniques?  If you answered yes to any of these questions, this camp is for you!  You will love this camp where we draw various digital Anime characters in our own style.  In this camp, students will vote on Anime portraits to draw each day after reviewing a variety of different options.  Many of the artworks are taken from Instagram and Pinterest, and credit will be given to each artist.  In this class, students can interact with myself and one another as much as they like.  This camp will allow for learners to share their art at the beginning of class and throughout each class.  The first day of class, we will start with introductions and students will have an opportunity to get to know one another before we start with our first portrait.  Then, Ms. Allison will mirror her screen on Zoom and guide students by explaining the process and techniques to create their own unique digital character drawings.  Students are encouraged to be creative and develop their own original digital paintings.  If students are more comfortable, they can trace the portraits, which will be posted to the classroom once chosen.  Students will learn about the following techniques/functions and more throughout this five day class:

-Drawing Assist
-Layers
-Clipping Masks
-Blending Modes
-Blending techniques
-Various Brushes
-Magic wand tool

A possible schedule, which is subject to change based on the pace of the students, is outlined below:

Week of 10/27/24: : Introductions and start the sketch/lineart for the first character drawing
Week of 11/3/2024: Color first character and start sketch/lineart for the second character
Week of 11/10/2024: Finish lineart for the second portrait and start coloring
Week of 11/17/2024: Start sketch/lineart for the third portrait
Week of 11/24/2024: Color third portrait and share artworks

Ideally, students should have a basic understanding of Procreate for the iPad prior to enrolling in this class, which entails knowing where functions are located and experimenting with the program.  Please consider taking Ms. Allison's ongoing classes or beginner Procreate classes prior to enrolling in this camp.  Although, all students are welcome to participate in the camp, and Ms. Allison always meets students where they are in their digital art journey.  I am a very laid back, passionate, patient, friendly, and encouraging teacher who cannot wait to meet you!

**Procreate on the iPad is required for this class.  Please see this website for compatibility and FAQ's about Procreate:

All drawings in the cover image are Ms. Allison's versions of DTIYS Anime character challenges from Instagram artists.

**Students can take this class more than once as we will do different portraits!
