In this 8-week course, students focus on how to draw hairstyles for an anime character. This is broken down into different categories such as male vs. female, different age groups, utilizing accessories, texture, volume, angles, and more! Students will leave this class feeling confident that they can create their own anime character. Although this class focuses on the hair, students will leave understanding proportions, measuring, angles, basic drawing concepts, and more for the full anime head! Consider this as the next level up from the Anime Head class. Students will not learn a particular style of anime, but will be exposed to multiple anime sources. Students should expect to draw multiple sketches within a session. 

This class is designed for the anime fan who wants to take their drawings to the next level. Art experience is not necessary but helpful.

🔰 Students can work at their own pace. No need to wait on others or feel rushed. 
🔰 Flex classes are an excellent choice for families with busy schedules.
