Class Descriptions
Being an Online Artist
This class is oriented to the growing number of artists who would like to learn to better navigate the art world through a professional lens, and for those who would like to be more confident in their presentation online. In this class, not only will we be drawing, but we will also be learning about the dos and don’ts of commission work, and what it takes to get commissions. Drawing and Online Presence is a class created for artists to explore their potential as a creator, and what that means for them.
Concept Art
Concept Art & Development is a class dedicated to creativity. In this class, students are invited to partake in the art of world-building, character design, environment design, and everything in between! Assignments and projects will revolve around student's honing their skills in illustration and design.

Experimentation & Storytelling

Manga Art & Illustration
This class will focus on developing styles closest to manga or manhua comics! Students will be taught to observe manga closely to study storytelling choices in Asian comics in order to create their very own comics and illustrations in the style of manga. (If your child enjoys anime/manga, this is the class that focuses on that style of art!)
Morning Manga
Morning Manga is for manga-style comic making! Students in this class will be challenged to improve their art skills by drawing manga style pages and comics. This class seeks to get students familiar with the comic making process and hone their stylization skills based on manga methods of storytelling and pacing.

The lesson plans will help you understand how to make characters come to life in a tangible way, create scenarios that are both fantastic and relatable, and how to write for audiences of all ages and interests. Our class tends to attract teenagers and adults, but our class is all-ages appropriate, and anyone can jump in at any time.
