This dynamic multi-week drawing course invites young artists (age 10-16) to explore a range of styles—from expressive cartooning and manga to realistic drawing techniques with 1/3 of each session (Fall, Winter & Spring) focussed on each style. Students will build strong foundational skills while discovering their own creative voice in a fun, supportive environment.
Throughout the course, participants will learn essential techniques such as proportion, shading, perspective, and character design. Each unit focuses on a different style, allowing students to experiment with manga storytelling, bring cartoons to life, and develop realistic sketches from observation.
Perfect for beginners and intermediate artists alike, this class encourages creativity, confidence, and artistic growth.

- Manga basics: expressions & action
