Want to develop your action poses for your drawings and comics?

Want to impress your friends, grow in confidence, and make action-packed art that you're proud of?

Then join this weekly anime art class, where I teach you to draw new action poses every single week. 

We'll cover everything from punching to climbing to swinging a bat or weapon. Drop in any week or stay for multiple--you'll learn a new pose and new techniques every single week, as well as come away with some awesome art.

Both beginners and advanced artists alike are welcome!

Students will learn not only the proportions and movements of the human figure and musculature, but how to pose characters caught in a moment of action packed movement. 

The human figure is complex, but while we refine the shapes and groups of muscles, I aim to shrink the intimidation of drawing fight sequences. By the time you complete the course, they will have become more than competent with creating action poses from memory with little reference.

You'll even use what you learn to start developing your own amazing action-packed scenes perfect for your own characters and comics.

This class is continuous and does not necessarily follow a start and end topic rhythm. New learners are welcome to join at any point. Many learners join and stay for 20, 30, 40 weeks or more! Lessons are always evolving with the class, and rather than specific lessons delivered the same way again, the lessons are adapted to create an experience of growth for as long as a learner should stay - even a full year or more! 
Here are examples of lesson topics that you may find in this class:

Hands
Punching
Feet/Legs
Kicking
Running
Head angles
Throwing
Falling/ Jumping
Sword fighting/swinging

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
----------------------------
💪 KAITLYN SYDELLE, ANIME COMIC ARTIST 💪: With a B.F.A. in Graphic Design with an emphasis in Illustration from CSU Fresno, I am an experienced, award winning comic artist with several self-published titles. I have been professionally teaching comics and anime themed classes to artists of all ages since 2013, from 1-on-1 elementary sessions to college-level classrooms. I’m very passionate about everyone experiencing the confident joy of putting your ideas onto paper, and feeling your world come to life. I believe there is no such thing as a “bad” art style, and that anyone can draw given the chance. In my classes, I help guide students to develop the styles they would enjoy practicing, honing their own signature style, or having space to try a new technique! Some of my favorite hobbies outside of art are studying foreign languages and martial arts to keep my brain and body active.
