What do these have in common: an illustration portfolio, a retail store, a surface designer’s show book, and a card shop? None of these are complete without a holiday lineup. The Santa’s, the holly, the reindeer, the doves, the gingerbread… these are all to be represented in your body of offerings. But people are complex and animals tricky—forget about daunting nativity scenes!
This class will demystify the complexities of composition and anatomy so that you can confidently approach holiday characters and focus on your unique take on Christmas classics.
What’s Included:
- Take a peek into a surface designer’s portfolio and inspiration binder.
- Learn to work in a shape-based approach that’s both approachable and trending.
- Break down complex anatomy.
- Learn best practices and tips when using watercolor and posca pen markers.
- Create a process in which to work in that can apply to a myriad of illustration subjects.
