Enroll in a class with me this spring.

I'll be teaching three very different classes this spring, two at the School of Visual Arts and one at MoCCA, all three open to the general public.

Comics Storytelling, starting January 25 on Tuesday nights, is a 12-week class where we explore the language and tradition of comics narrative. I assign a few short assignments, then you work on a longer comic of your own. 

Register here.

Independent Projects Seminar: Comics, co-taught with Tom Hart, is a great opportunity to get occasional feedback on a project you are working at on your own: graphic novel, short story, webcomic, whatever. We meet three times throughout the semester for full-day Saturday critique sessions which always generate thoughtful feedback and enlightening discussions from the whole group. We've had multiple repeat students in this class as it is well suited to artists who are basicaly working on their own but want to come in from the cold occasionally. 

Register here.

There will be an open house/info session next Tuesday, January 11, where you can learn more about these and other classes. I'll be there as will a bunch of other teachers. Details below.

Looking ahead a bit, I'm also excited to be offering a special 4-week Oubapo/constrained comics workshop as part of MoCCA's Education Program on Monday nights starting February 28. I'll have more details here and at the MoCCA website soon.
