For HOMESCHOOLERS! Thursdays 10:30 – 12 noon @ the Local Artisan Collective beginning Sept 5th. Ages 12 & up.

The cost is $99 for the 6 weeks. All supplies included in the price. We also take payments from the following organizations: Athenian, Harmony, My Tech High, LAU and potentially Utah Education Fits All (please inquire with us to ensure on this one beforehand).

COURSE DESCRIPTION: For tweens & up to adults. Students learn basic drawing skills by way of creating both realistic animal sketches as well as cartoon characters (anime/graphic novel/animation style etc). Through curated resources and hands on exercises, the fundamentals of drawing like shape, line, proportion, gesture, shading, anatomy, foreshortening, action, construction, etc, are introduced in a way that encourages students to enjoy the process—while making pictures with personality! Students also learn to find good reference images, how to compose a scene and set a visual mood, and how to draw dramatic finishing touches like fur, texture, and lighting. No previous drawing experience required.

We start classes on the week of September 5th and end on the week of October 10th.
(If you want to take all the classes in this series with Charis, the next one will be “Entertainment Art” at the same time on Thursdays beginning October 24th.)
