Do you love manga and anime? Students in this class learn drawing skills like proportions, hairstyles, and character poses in an anime/manga style. Manga broadly refers to Japanese comics, or any comics or illustration inspired by the distinctive art style of Japanese comic creators.

Manga (8-12yrs) is recommended for beginners or intermediate artists, and covers:

• step-by-step of drawing faces, hairstyles

• drawing body proportions and clothing

• comics and/or chibi style drawings

Manga Advanced (10-14yrs) is recommended for students who already have strong skills in drawing anime. It covers advanced projects like:

• drawing bodies in complex poses

• illustrations with shading and/or backgrounds

• complex comics
