Skills You’ll Learn
WHAT IS THIS CLASS ABOUT?
Your everyday walk on the same street doesn't mean you see the same thing every time. There are always special moments that we want to keep in a safe place. I have been letting my original characters walking around in my neighborhood. Once you add a character to the background, the illustration becomes alive and tells its own story. Where is your special place? Let your character live the place and see what story your character tells.
WHO IS THIS CLASS FOR?
If you want to design and color your original character and are fond of nature-inspired colors, this class will be perfect for you! Did you get just started with digital drawing or using Clip Studio? Don't worry! This class is for beginners who want to upskill their drawing skills, including character drawing, perspectives, colors, and final rendering.
WHAT WILL THE STUDENTS ACHIEVE?
How well you draw matters, but what you draw is much more important. You can always upskill yourself with practices, but no one can brainstorm for you. I believe that it's crucial to know what you love and why you love them. Let's look around and start drawing what you see. By the end of this class, I would like you to find something that constantly inspires you to draw.
