I'm no advertiser but I'm taking these online classes so I thought I would be interesting to other people who want to improve their skills and extend their knowledge on drawing, design, storytelling through design, etc...

Gnomon starts with these Live online classes for two weeks where you can communicate with the artist himself. Here is some more info...

Each class is offered online in a private forum, allowing you to participate in discussion with the instructor and other students. Each instructor will check the forums daily during the first week and will do their best to answer students' questions. * Each high-def lecture video is 2-3 hours long and available 24 hours a day, so you can watch them whenever you'd like, as often as you'd like * Access will start November 9th at 10:00 am and end November 23rd at 12:00 am (Pacific Standard Time) * One ticket gives you access to all 16 classes

Look at the list of the instructors. There are some top designers like Scott Robertson and Feng zhu who talk about design decisions. Check out the list, there are 16 incredible artists, all working in the biggest studios.


The price is $225 for students and $245 for non students. Consider this really cheap because you get 16 classes with personal critique's on your work..



Hope to be of some help!
