Description
Kick off your new year with a weekly comics practice! Join Madeleine Jubilee Saito to explore poetry comics from a wide range of artists, discover your own voice, and complete a minicomic of your own by the end of the course.
In this online course, you'll practice exercises to explore your own voice and interests in drawing and text, creating poetry comics in a variety of styles. You'll learn about minicomics, how to do basic layout for printing, and how to print a quarter page minicomic. We'll end the course with a celebratory comics reading for friends and family on Zoom.
