TAKE THIS COURSE CIL 039-S20-1 | TURN YOUR DOODLES INTO ILLUSTRATIONS SUN • 9AM-4PM • 6/14 In this one-day workshop, students will experience the process of turning simple doodles into actual illustrations that serve a particular purpose. The early part of the day will be spent off-campus (nearby) doing loose observational sketching. Back in the classroom, students will be guided to do research, looking at examples of different possibilities for their morning doodles. The last part of the day will be spent working towards completing the process - making a greeting card, poster, or whatever more finalized project they choose. By the end of the day students will have a greater understanding of the process of creating an illustration from start to finish. Artwork: Hannah Rosengren
