Create your own characters using Procreate!
Dive into the fundamentals of 2D character design through digital tools like Procreate. This class is perfect for artists with a little bit of experience drawing (digitally or otherwise) ages 12+.
We will cover the essential steps of creating original characters and creatures, including anatomy, color palettes, backstory and other elements of design.
We will also cover digital art tools and processes that make designing new characters a breeze.

ADA ACCESSIBILITY & ACCOMMODATIONS:
Our classrooms are ADA accessible. Some courses may involve tasks or activities that may be difficult for individuals with limited strength, difficulty bending over, and sitting or standing for long periods of time. We are happy to work with students to find solutions to make their experience positive and doable. For example, wheel throwing takes arm strength and bending over the wheel. Students may work on hand-building projects instead of throwing. Please reach out to our office to discuss your needs.
