Class Experience

This class is geared toward children who either make their own comics or want to make their own comics.

*Comics 101* is the recommended prerequisite. It covers the basic techniques needed to create a successful comic.

This class is an open space where kids are allowed to explore their creativity and work on their own comics. Topics are learner directed and guidance follows the discussion topics. Children are encouraged to develop their own stories and ideas for the class (hopefully they already have some ideas!) Every child is allowed to work at their own pace and work within their own style.

Subjects children are encouraged to explore include: thumbnailing, paneling, speech bubbles, inking, coloring and finishing, and more

Children are encouraged to ask questions and engage in class participation. Children have the option start, stop, and change their projects at will. This is an ongoing class, students are allowed to create as many comics as they wish and are able to join and leave at any time. 

Both traditional and digital artists are welcome. 

Let your child explore their creativity through the infinite possibilities of comics!

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is Brian and I am an artist and illustrator from Los Angeles, California. I am a classically trained in fine art and animation. In addition to making art I really enjoy teaching youth and helping them to develop their own unique form of creativity.

I have a number of years teaching and working with youth in various after school programs. I truly believe to that learning should be fun and I strive to provide an environment that is enriching, safe, and creatively nurturing. Students will be encouraged to express themselves artistically and to add their own imagination to the lessons.

Currently, I offer daily and weekly, cartooning courses. These are ongoing classes and the lessons evolve as course progresses, so children that wish to repeat the class will have new material to work from. These are entry level classes designed for anyone with an interest in drawing. All skill levels are welcome. Classes are non-competitive and each student is encouraged to do their own personal best. I believe that students can learn a lot from drawing with each other. In these classes students will have the opportunity to learn from myself but also each other as well.

In addition, I will be offering limited one time classes. This is a good way to test out the course and see if your child would be interested in one of the longer classes. These classes are also a option for tutoring if your child has specific drawing goals. If your child has special needs please reach out and let me know before the first class so I can make any necessary adjustments.
