ONLINE ILLUSTRATION || Character Design || WORKSHOP with Joan Choi.

Content Summary:
I’m an illustrator who loves dramatic lighting, fashion, and effective character design. My greatest struggle when I was learning how to draw was figuring out how to paint in a way that was effective, time-saving, and produced a consistently visually appealing result. This workshop will show you the THINKING that guides my process and my art. I’m hoping to provide you with the analytical and observational skills needed to consistently create a strong image so you can apply it to draw anything you want! These methods will work for both digital and traditional art.

Day 1: How to convey more information with less effort

Introductions

Taste in Art

Painting Crash Course: values + efficient material depiction

Accepting Failure and the Quickest way to grow as an artist

Still life demo

Day 2: How to design and paint a character

how to gather effective reference

Character design crash course

visual coherence

Designing a character demo

Day 3: How to make a full illustration with your sanity intact

Composition

Edges and Highlights

Color Crash Course

Bringing a piece to full render demo

Recommended Materials:

Tablet + digital drawing program (I use Photoshop)

your big brain

* I LOVE answering questions. If anything I say is confusing or needs reiteration, I would be so happy to talk about it all over again. If you’d prefer a written explanation, you can also email me before or after the workshop.
* I will be looking at everyone’s work and providing feedback/a paintover. After the class, I will send over the feedback via email!

*Frequent questions:

What happens if I can’t see the classes live one day?

• No problem. All classes are live but will also be recorded and posted on our platform. So you can see them whenever you want throughout the duration of the course. This means that if you cannot attend your class live at the stipulated time, you will be able to see them on the platform until the end of the course. These video-classes posted on the platform can be viewed unlimitedly during the duration of the course but cannot be copied or downloaded. They can also be viewed for 6 months once the course is over.

When can I see the classes I did not attend live?

• 24-hour access to the virtual platform where you can consult all the information or documentation of the course, access all the classes that have already been taught or the proposed exercises. When, where and at the rate you want.
