From the combination of analog and digital methods emerge the webcomics from illustrator Sol Díaz. Author of over fifteen books and passionate about drawing as a transformational tool, she teaches you how to develop characters that communicate your ideas, dreams, and concerns.

In this first course, learn how to create your own webcomic and give shape to your first five comic vignettes, with a story and characters that you can keep developing. Throughout the course, Sol guides you step by step through the creative process and shows you how to take a trip into your inner world to find personal ideas to build an unforgettable story.

Description

Explore your inner world to create and share illustrated stories ranging from the personal to the universal

Begin the course by getting to know Sol Díaz, her vision, and her professional experience. She shares what most influences her work such as films and books that have inspired and enriched her work.

In the next unit, start searching for ideas by exploring and uniting elements from your inner world and your surroundings. Develop the groundwork for your comic and create sketches of your featured characters.

Next, it’s time to start drawing! Experiment with shapes, colors, and textures to give shape to your comic. Develop the storyline, draw your characters in action, and paint your scenes.

Lastly, go from hand-drawn to digital, until your work is ready for sharing on social media. Create a virtual space in alignment with your story to showcase your artwork and add more as you go!
