This class meets on SUNDAYS, from 11 a.m.-12:45 p.m., 4/25-5/23
(no class on 5/9 due to Mother's Day)
In this workshop, you'll learn how to create your own cartoon characters, working in a humorous "Sunday Funnies" style, even if you've never drawn before. We'll draw humorous, simplified faces and figures, cartoon animals and more. Plus: inking, coloring, copyrighting your artwork and getting published. The instructor's artwork has been published in the U.S. and Europe. Nothing to bring or buy; all materials are provided.

I appreciated how you
covered all of the basics, and took the time to answer student
questions. - Michelle G., Seattle
The class was excellent. I learned exactly what I was hoping to.
I'll be taking more of the instructor's art classes in the future.
- Chris K., Redmond
Before the class I was drawing one figure over and over again,
and didn't know how to move her around. I feel great now, I can
draw all kinds of characters and expressions. - Melanie T., Seattle
Nils is thoughtful, paces the class well, and treats everyone
with respect. There were twelve adults and three youngsters in
the class. He took all of the students seriously, listened to
all of their questions with the same respect - K.L., Bellevue
Nils is an amazing artist, and I would say, an excellent teacher.
I learned exactly what I was hoping for, and have been drawing
steadily since the class. I'll be back for more. - J.W., Bellevue
The demonstration on coloring cartoons in Photoshop was great!
- Keith L, Seattle
The teacher was knowledgable and did a good job... (unsigned)
Thanks Nils! It was excellent. - Ken S.
