Interested in Drawing Manga Comic?

by Cindy - 3 Comment(s)

Manga CoverManga comics are becoming overly popular among the teens. However, I've noticed that some adults are starting to appreciate the artwork and storyline behind these books. Unlike regular books that reads from left to right, Manga comics are read from right to left and they start at the back of the book. It may seem strange at first, but after a few manga books, it becomes second nature.

One of the things that fascinate me about Manga are the drawings. A little change in the character eyes or hair can change their overall look from being happy to mad. I've attempted to recreate some of my favorite characters on paper...but...I'll just end it here. Embarassed

Now here's a chance for you teens out there to learn from a professional artist. They will show you the tips and tricks that you will need to know to recreate or even create your own Manga character. This will be a two day session on May 23rd and 30th from 3:30-5:30 p.m.

My son would like to get some instruction on drawing Manga, but I was not able to find one this summer. It would be nice to have a Manga summer camp. Do you know anyone who might be offering this? Thanks.
