Nashville Comic Class- Making Comics and Zines


If you've always wanted to take a comics class, led by a professional comic artist with industry, anthology, and self-publishing experience, here's your chance at an amazing opportunity!

I'm leading a 6 week, six class workshop series with Nashville Community Ed this fall!   This class will be held at the Cohn School, and it's only $60 for all six classes.  Nashville Community Ed has kindly agreed to provide all the materials you'll need for the class.

What Students Can Expect:

A six week intensive comic workshop that will cover everything from planning and scripting your comic to drawing, inking, and assembling the finished minicomic or zine.  I plan on teaching everything about the comic process from writing a synopsis to a beat sheet to the basics of constructive human anatomy and perspective to inking and laying out your mini comic.  Students of all skill levels are welcome, and I hope to end the class with a zine and mini comic exchange.
