Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Our manga/ anime art and illustration classes are great for all levels and most ages. Once interest is expressed and classes are purchased, we begin creating! <3
When working with a new student, the first session is exploration + exercise ~
- exploration - identifying their art goals and expectations through this process.
- exercise - draw together while loosely chatting and briefly walking the student through some of the fundamentals they will learn in future classes
Based on feedback during the first class, an action plan is created for and shared with each individual student (& parent if under the age of 10) Here the student can add any interests and feedback of what they want more of as classes progress.
All action plans are created with reserved time forward in mind, allows breathing room to shift as creativity + inspiration take hold, and presented before the next scheduled session.
