Cartooning & Illustration for Young Artists

This specialised course is for students who are passionate about cartooning and want to explore the process further with our teacher Kaitlyn Stephens.

In this class, students will explore a wide range of cartooning styles with both drawing and painting materials. They will gain an understanding of the fundamentals that build eye-catching and unique stylistic art and develop their capacity for imaginative self-expression. To foster our students’ individualism, class projects include critical-thinking and observational learning skills.

Through this course, students will learn the following: 

• Fundamental cartooning principles that can be applied to individual art-making. 
• Visual story-telling principles for more complex and effective cartooning.
