Build on your illustration experience and develop your style with this fast-paced children's illustration intensive! We will focus on developing your children's illustration abilities by experimenting with materials and techniques, practicing characters and compositions, and creating work from the ground up -- sketch to final. Through a range of inspiring assignments, critiques, slideshows and collaborative exercises, we'll investigate environment, perspective, horizon, color, line/tone, mood, expression, body language, scale, and the unique ability illustration gives us to bring our imaginations into the picture! Prepare to have fun, work hard and be challenged.
