Summer 2008

Cartooning and Comics


Do you enjoy reading comic books or comic strips? Do you doodle and draw? Do you enjoy making up characters and stories? If you do, Cartooning and Comics may be for you. The combining of words and pictures into a seamless narrative language is a unique medium and a unique opportunity for you to not only practice writing and LOTS of drawing, but to have fun while doing it. This class gives you all the tools you need to write, draw and create your own comic strip, comic book page or entire eight-page mini-comic book! There will be group participation in character development and storytelling, comic strip analysis and hands-on art instruction. I invite you to bring to class a sample of your work for review and critique.
