This class is about how to observe subjects that appeal to you and how to translate it into your art to increase visual interest, as well as teaching you how to make smart detail/simplification decisions when working on illustrations to find your personal style and signature.
This class is for anyone who are uncertain about their artistic direction or for those of you who want to take your art to the next level by practicing the observation, simplification, and stylisation of characters, props, and backgrounds that compose a polished scene. If you are trying to establish an art style that is uniquely and naturally yours, this class is fit for you.
By the end of this class, you will have a greater understanding of observation and stylisation, as well as honing your own unique style and abilities. You will be able to distinguish and solidify your personal artistic voice. You will have the skills necessary to execute your ideas in more interesting and visually appealing ways.
