Who has never dreamed of being able to approach his movie star, his favorite cartoon or cartoon character? Do you want to see the characters in your imagination take shape on a sheet of paper?

I suggest that students draw the characters they like (Walt Disney Characters, Pixar, Manga, comics, actor, footballer, singer, etc.) or create a character according to a theme (example: football-> a footballer, a trainer , a supporter, / bakery -> a baker, a personified cupcake, animated). For those who prefer and love animals, I suggest drawing animals from a photo that they like (example: a rabbit), to make the same animal, but so cartoon or cartoon (example: Bugs bunny or Judy in Zootopie), then to create a board of expression with this character, to draw him to laugh, to cry, to be surprised, angry, etc. As techniques, I provide the gray pencils and colors, as well as TOUCH twin marker pens.

Using Photoshop to enhance photography or to change the picture to convey the message you want it to. This class is focused on retouching of people, mainly portraits, teaching techniques that can be used in any other field of photography with Photoshop as well.

In drawing, there are no miracles: it is practice, training, perseverance, which are the sources of progress.
