Illustration for Children’s Books is a comprehensive course in the art of book illustration. Welcome to the wonderful world of children’s books! This can be a rewarding career or simply a way to make a special memento for your family . . . or both. In these two weekends we will learn about book design, page layout, character development, and the foundation for interpreting a story. Students will look at assorted styles of illustration from which they will develop their own unique characters and designs. In this class we will complete a rough draft of a 32-page children’s book, then move on to a finished portfolio-ready illustration. Prior drawing experience is helpful but not necessary depending on the story you are illustrating. Materials: Bring the supplies you will need for the first class: drawing pad, pencils, erasers, and sharpener. You may bring in anything you want to illustrate; a poem, a fairy tale, a short story, a biography of a special person, whatever you like and whatever gives you the opportunity to draw and paint the images you want. We will cover different media as the class progresses. For more information visit: ljathenaeum.org Stay Connected on Facebook and Instagram
