Comic Foundations for ages 9-14 years

Learn the basics of storytelling with these creative drawing and comic classes! We will cover foundational skills such as shapes, proportion, perspective, inking, colour, and shadow, with a focus on using those skills to draw comics. Students will start by creating short comic strips and may progress to longer stories if they desire; students will take home comic strips, perspective drawings, paintings, a sculpture, and a mini-zine. Let your imagination go wild with great guidance by Audrey!

If full - second class starting March 9 to April 13 (6 sessions)
