In this class, you will learn how to tell a story in one single frame by illustrating the love or a friendship between two people.
Hi, I’m Vijaya. I’m an Indian Illustrator. I’ve been illustrating traditional and quirky wedding cards for over 5 years! Illustrating wedding cards taught me a lot about how to tell someone’s story through art, how to translate someone’s personality into an illustration, and furthermore, how two personalities come together to form a bond.
What is visual storytelling?
Storytelling is always about a relationship and its dynamics. With visual storytelling, we are invoking a feeling without words, just lines, shapes, colours and textures.
Why illustrate the connection between two people?
The best illustrators in the world are story tellers first and great sketch artists after. Art is impactful when it tells a story. Art is doubly impactful when it tells a story of two very real people.
Throughout this class, you’ll learn:
- Researching your muse’s story
- The art of drawing thumbnails
- Creating instant colour harmonies
- How to bring more character into your art (for every style!)
- Training your brain to draw anything with practice exercises
