The Illustration Academy is a five-week intense workshop of "immersion" into the art world. Each day is full of studio time, presentations, demonstrations, drawing time, and research time. Three nights a week include figure drawing sessions with live models. Many evenings are reserved for sidebar demonstrations by the faculty and networking opportunities.
The full time faculty is available for the entire five weeks during the workshop. The faculty works with students on a day-to-day basis, with a visiting artist changing from week-to-week, ensuring students get maximum exposure to top industry contacts.
