What You Will Learn?
The purpose of this class is to help you how to draw to communicate./nI. Exercise:/nIn this class, we’ll go through an exercise to visually capture something from our surroundings as simply as possible. /nWe’ll do this to help train your eye to show just enough detail from the thing you want to capture to be able to communicate it on the page./nII. Class Project:/nThen, we’ll quickly move on to our class project, where we’ll create our visual profile composed of our most distinct hobbies and qualities. Think of this as how your friends would describe you when introducing you to someone new. /nYour visual profile will consist of two main elements: one illustration of you standing at the bottom of the page, and several bubbles above the illustration of you, each containing a quality, hobby or occupation you're known for./n/n/nIII. Bonus Lesson: Book Recommendations/nAnd finally, we’ll have a bonus lesson where I’ll share some books that can help serve as guides or inspirations on your journey to becoming more confident in the language of visual communication. /nBut in the end, I hope that you go way beyond the examples I provide or the ones you’ll find in the books I’ll share and that after being comfortable with some commonly used elements in visual communication worldwide, you’re able to develop your own style and leave your touch in every opportunity you get to express your ideas./n/nAll you'll need are a piece of paper (or sketchbook) and anything you can draw with. You can also get a coloring medium like a crayon, marker or color pencil./nLet's get to it, shall we? :)/n—w/nCredits/n— Sketchbook from Tibeb Leatherworks: Tibeb Leather Works (@tibeb_leather_works) • Instagram photos and videos/n—Texture background:https://unsplash.com/photos/y_2GC4EhOP4—Background music:Music by AlexGrohl from Pixabay/n—/n
