Throughout the class we’ll cover:

• • How to understand and convey body language through your drawings

• • Creating expressive character poses from imagination

• • Drawing hand gestures

• • Illustrating facial expressions

• • Communicating character relationships and interactions

• • Illustrating an emotive, stylised scene from start to finish

We’ll kick off with several exercises to practice key techniques, sketching from both imagination and observation to drawing hand gestures and facial expressions. Then we’ll bring all these skills together in our class project to create an emotive illustration with two characters interacting.
