In this course, students will create a single illustration from start to finish. 

Each weekly class is centered around a specific stage of illustrationβ€” sketching, line-art, coloring, and shading. 

πŸ”Έ This is a Small Class Size learning opportunity.
πŸ”Έ This teacher will keep the class open for 1 student!

During each class, students will perform exercises in each discipline to help them master different techniques, and decide which approach is best for their style. Additionally, students will have discussions about digital illustration, and what we can learn from how other artists illustrate. How does this artist use color? What technique is best for a simpler style versus a more detailed one? 

In this course, students will learn how to use illustration fundamentals to enhance their work and tell a story with their art.

It is best if students do have some knowledge of digital drawing programs, but this course will cover techniques available to both beginner and intermediate artists.

Supplies needed: paper or a sketchbook, pencils or pen, and digital drawing tools and program.
