It gives me nothing but joy to pass onto others what CCS instilled in me.
ccs taught me how to build a sustainable artistic practice that allows my creativity and cartooning to be at the center of my life.
this summer things came full circle as [ came to teach the very workshop that made me fall in love with ccs-the create comics workshop.
with a heavy heart [ moved from wrj this past summer. though [ left my job as the lab tech, i’m not gone for good-[ still come back once a week (at least!) to teach.
in the second year of ccs’s program, the students work on a thesis project. each student takes everything they’ve learned about comics and creates the BEST COMIC THEY EVER MADE!
every week, a visiting artist comes to ccs to speak. visitors represent a variety of disciplines, including cartooning, print-making, animation, puppet making, and more. seeing students meet their art heroes in person is amazing.
after two years in the production lab, [ started teaching the publication workshop. it was my great honor to be a full-fledged faculty member. although i had always known ccs instructors were superb cartoonists and teachers, working closely with them revealed how invested they all were in passing along their knowledge and experience.
they’re in the cartooning trenches right there with the students, and they bring a lifetime of experience into every class. as wild and creative as the production lab is, the classroom proved to be even more so.
