Wintersession Classes that are Great for Children's Book Illustration Students

Wintersession 2015 is a great time to fit some classes that speed by in only 6 weeks. 

watercolor workshop last summer

Here are a few classes that I consider of special interest:

• Drawing Children, with 6 sessions of child models
• Creating Worlds, which is about creating setting for your hand-drawn characters.  

The weekend intensive workshops are amazing and short... a Saturday and Sunday from 9-4.  

• Perspective Drawing is one that I especially recommend. Sandy Valpey Cordts makes it all pretty painless, and we all know that EVERYONE needs a little work on perspective. 

Also available this year: 

• Mixed Media
• Watercolor (I teach this one)
• Gouache
• Acrylic Painting
• Oil Painting

There's lots more... Photographing you artwork, Building your online portfolio, Prin

tmaking for Illustration... !

Required classes are also available: 

• Color Theory
• Digital Tools for Print Design
• Drawing 1
• Intro to Adobe Photoshop
• Two-D Design 
• How Professionals Design Their Portfolios: Children's Book Illustration, a  3-hour workshop and critique by Mary Jane Begin recommended for the year that you graduate.

Classes are enrolling for wintersession now.
