In this course, students learn how illustration communicates ideas, explains the natural world, and tells stories through three focused units: narrative illustration, scientific illustration, and sequential art. Students explore a range of approaches and media to create finished art for visual storytelling. Students will build the drawing, design, and visual communication skills that working illustrators rely on. Through three focused units, they learn how images can carry a narrative, make complex information clear, and move a reader through time panel by panel.
