Cartooning & Comics for 6-8th Graders
“Students in this class develop their own characters and stories, while also learning and practicing basic drawing skills,” says Laura Craig. Craig teaches the class and is director of the Irrelevant Elephant Fine Art Studio. “Skills that go beyond cartooning.”
Cartooning is obviously fun, but it is not just child’s play. It is an ancient art (cave-painting) that has modern applications--game design, TV storyboarding, fashion illustration, animation, political commentary, advertising, and more.
Cartooning & Comics is offered on eight Tuesdays, from 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. The cost is $250. The next session starts in January.
