Class Experience

This class is an ongoing format. Students will sketch a new anime girl every week. Each week is charged as a subscription on Sunday mornings. Students can join or leave the series any week. We recommend beginners to join our Fundamental Pencil Sketching Anime Head & Face series before proceeding to this class:

Students will learn fundamental techniques in creating pretty anime girls with a live art instructor. They will use proper sketching, shading and blending techniques. Each week will start with anime faces. Students will learn how to detail each facial features like eyes, nose, mouth and ear. Instructors will demonstrate how to identify basic shapes within a character's head, facial measurements and proportions, facial expressions, etc. We will also discuss hairstyles that are well suited for each character.  While approaching a new character every week, students will also learn how to take one anime or manga style face and tweak its features and expression to give an appearance of a different personality. 

This is a highly sought-after class for anime and manga enthusiasts who love Anime, Manga, Manga Drawing, Shoujo, Shounin, Bishoujo, Doujinshi and Kodomo Manga. Class is highly-interactive and students will have the opportunity to exchange their ideas and chat with other Anime fans. Students are encouraged to pursue their interests in anime and manga art with progressive classes on facial techniques.
