In this 4 part intensive we'll make a folded and stapled comic in the classic comic style with a cover, story, panels, word balloons:  the whole shebang.Inspired by the books “Cartooning” by Ivan Brunetti, and “Making Comics” by Lynda Barry, plus the instructor's own experiences making comics, students go through the process of designing characters, writing their story, and creating a 4-8 page staple-bound comic.  

This course will also include drawing exercises to help get the creative juices flowing, and help hone the skills needed to visually tell a story. The comics created in the course will be drawn by hand in pencil, and then inked and staple bound. The clas will clminate in discussing options for printing and distributing your comic. 

Students should purchase their own mixed-media sketchbook in size of choice.
