Hi everyone! I'm Meoksal, I work as a freelance illustrator. Are you enjoying your art making process? I am here, hoping to help each one of you grab your pen and make what you love. The most important thing in creating art is your mindset-- your desire to be a good illustrator, as it will bring you a butterfly effect.
WHAT IS THIS CLASS ABOUT?
You will learn how to make your art outstanding.
I once cared too much about others think. It was challenging to get attention for my art. That's when I started to share what I love, such as impressions, emotions, atmosphere and color through my art. It's important to know what you like as it will be your starting point.
WHO IS THIS CLASS FOR?
This class is for anyone who wants to improve their character illustration skills. I hope every artist overcome their mental burdens by building self-confidence and just enjoying the process. You will face difficulties throughout the journey, but I will guide you through the entire process, and help you finish your illustration from the scratch. I'm rooting for you!
WHAT WILL THE STUDENTS ACHIEVE?
In order to be a good illustrator, it's important to know the basics in addition to knowing what you love. In this class, you will learn anatomy thoroughly to create space, volume and depth in your illustration. Studying figural anatomy will help you create a better structured character. You will also learn facial expression design, coloring, and adding final touches.
