Beginner - Intermediate Level
This class is a beginner to intermediate class for drawing a character in a cartoon style. The students will learn some techniques for practicing drawing like blind contour drawing and human proportions. The class will help students come up with an idea for their character and for the imaginary world. For the first 2 classes I will structure the class starting with a drawing excercise that will be 30mins. The remaining time will be some instruction followed by time to work on the project. Homework will be assigned to finish the phase of the project for that week. The last 2 classes will include a short lecture on the next steps of the process: Drawing the character and the background whild adding color. I will be sharing my computer screen with the class in order to clearly show drawing techniques. Students are not required to use Photoshop, but I will be using it to best convey drawing steps.
Learning Goals
Students will learn illustration practices and techniques so they can draw a character in their own style.
