This class prepares the students to develop an understanding of visual communication. Regardless if it is a piece of environment or a vehicle design we have to stick to the same physical rules which we will use as a framework for our artworks.
The fundamental skills of digital painting will cover the knowledge of how light and colors work, how to define materials and many more!
We prepare for industry standards using professional equipment.
Classes can be taken on–site or online from anywhere that makes your learning comfortable and drives your creativity.
