Alison is patient and candid. She is supportive and encouraging, but as expected of a great coach and instructor, she shows you what you are doing wrong and/or how you can improve your drawings. This was particularly important as we began to create our own images, rather than copying others’ cartoons.
I especially enjoyed when she was able to comment or “redraw” directly on our drawings. I would think someone’s cartoon was great, and then it was interesting to see how the smallest thing could make a big improvement to it. It is especially impressive that she was able to offer meaningful and supportive feedback across the many different styles that we were developing individually.
