Intro to Comic Book Art Six Week Children's Class

Intro to Comic Book Art Six Week Class
with Eric Fulford

Ages 8yrs and up
January 18th - February 22nd
Saturdays, 10 am - 12:30 pm
$95 per child


In this class students will be introduced to the basics of comic book
creation by artist and educator Eric Fulford. Eric has spent years
teaching illustration workshops, including the past two summers with the
Rhode Island Summer Reading Program. This six-week course will begin
with students creating their very own comic book characters while
learning sketching and planning techniques. Then the class will cover
the use of panels to tell an exciting story as the participants begin to
come up with a wild adventure for their characters! Finally, we will
discuss how colors can help us set the tone of the scene and put the
finishing touches on a complete comic book. This class will give

students a chance to let their imaginations run wild as their pencils
try to keep up! This class will be held at the Rhode Island Watercolor
Society located in Slater Memorial Park.
