This class introduces essential skills for translating 3-dimensional forms onto 2D surfaces. The course covers line quality, volume, texture, perspective, and value. Students learn to draw from observation, focusing on still life and basic forms to build confidence in composition and rendering. Materials will focus on graphite to exercise control, then charcoal for more expressive effects. This class is intended for students with little or no prior drawing experience, or for those who have not drawn in a while and want to sharpen foundational skills in a group setting.

Cartooning is a process, a language and an art form. This class will provide students with the means for creative self-discovery and the exploration of complex ideas through visual, sequential storytelling. Students will record their observations, experiences and memories in their sketchbook and then translate that material into pictographic narratives...some only one panel and some multiple pages. The class is essentially a writing and an art class rolled into one. The class focuses much more on story and process than drawing skills.
