• In this playful and practical class, you’ll learn to illustrate a dynamic bike scene with a riding character, creating an illustration full of movement and style. Perfect for growing your skills and boosting your creativity!   Bikes are trickier to draw than we think. Try drawing one from memory and you’ll realize how complex they really are! We’ll start with a fun warmup: sketching a bike from memory, then comparing it to a reference to see what we missed (you’ll be surprised!). From there, I’ll guide you through drawing the bicycle step by step.  But the real magic happens when we add a character—so you’ll also design a rider to go with your bike. Your rider brings the scene to life, and I’ll help you build that connection between character and object in a natural and engaging way.

Whether you’re an aspiring illustrator or just love drawing dynamic scenes, this class will help you:

• Break down complex objects (like bikes!) into simple, draw-able shapes
• Use reference photos effectively without stiff results 
• Add movement, emotion, and personality to your illustrations
• Combine character design with storytelling in everyday scenes

By the end of class, you’ll have a bike illustration that feels alive and joyful. It’s a wonderful piece for your portfolio or just a fun way to level up your drawing skills.
