Deep inside all of us lives beautiful characters, worlds, and stories. But pulling them out and presenting them to the world can be challenging without a little help. Through studying anatomy, composition, color, and storytelling, I will show you how to create not only breathtaking standalone illustrations, but also how to create webcomics to engage your audience!

This course is for anyone who wants to learn how to create highly engaging and aesthetically appealing illustrations of their characters and how to start and succeed in making eye-catching webcomics featuring them and their stories.

By the end of this class, you will be able to practically apply your newfound understanding of anatomy, color choices, composition, and visual storytelling skills to standalone illustrations of your characters and you will be able to create and execute a webcomic series with those characters.
