In this project-based course, we will explore Illustration, the art
and techniques of visual storytelling. We will be
drawing and painting using industry-standard digital imaging software. We will also combine digital painting with
traditional materials, such as pen and ink, photography, and print-making. Projects will be wide-ranging, from
illustration for editorial, packaging, and advertising, to character design, animation, and comic books. Through
experimentation, students will develop their own unique voices as image-makers. This will be a highly practical course
for anyone interested in graphic design, animation, or digital applications within the fine arts.
