Calling the next-gen of content creators! Express yourself through comics. Students will learn about the art of creating comics by exploring overall concept, character development, setting, and storyline. Drawing skills will be developed, or started from scratch, as students work on backgrounds, faces and figures in motion and leave with their own comic creation.
The instructor, Mx. Annam, imparts drawing and color lessons that they developed throughout their 30 years as an artist and arts educator. Through these meticulously designed exercises students unlock and improve their natural gifts. There is teacher assisted studio time to allow for vital personal expression, and this inclusive class is open to all levels and abilities.
This program is part of SEA of Visibility, an organization that embraces BIPOC, immigrant, queer and disabled artists and allies, focusing on neurodiversity and mental health. It “Supports Expression through the Arts” (SEA) and promotes destigmatization and integration through multidisciplinary arts exhibitions, performances and art-making programs.
