Brother David looked up from his parchment as the churches bells slowly tolled out the hour, the familiar chimes a comfort to him.

The nib could just be heard under the bells scratching on the parchment, the once fine and delicate script Brother David had been renowned for now resembled the path made by a drunken spider that had been dipped in ink and had weaved its way across the page. This caused had caused no end of frustration and depression for the old monk. In his youth, he had taken such pride in his art,

Introduction
Hello and welcome to expressions 101~
We make expressions... expressive ones! ...OH. (please don't mind my attempts at humor ._.;)
By the end of this term, you'll learn how expressions work and how to make your characters, be they human or otherwise, communicate their feelings.
To start off, I'd like to see where you're at and learn some things about you, so your first assignment will be a assignment and questionnaire.
Questions:
Do you use any kind of style (realism, cartoon, anime, etc.) that you use?
What's something you'd like to learn from this class?
Do you use a computer or traditional tools more for your artwork?
How often do

Backgrounds Class Notice
Due to lack of activity from the DecviantART-Academy group, I've decided to save what little free time I have to work on my own projects rather than teaching to what seems to be a ghost crowd. o_o I know other teachers are experiencing this, and bravo to them for having more stick-to-it-ness than me. When I see that more than half of my students don't comment or post assignments, I feel like my lessons aren't getting through to them. I'd much rather make room for a new backgrounds teacher than waste people's time. ^^
As far as grading and awards go, the only two students who seemed involved at all were SycrosD4 and alalessia. They both did a

Anthro class info
Class: Anthropomorphic
Instructor: Ben George (ArchAntagonist)
Brief description: This class covers the basic anatomy to the intricacies of designing your own character using the anthro art form. It might also help to take animal/human anatomy along with this class to get a well-rounded education of how they all combine.
FYI: I am going to make the class more anthropomorphic based, which means its not just furry artwork, its adding human attributes and features to anything from random objects to elements, plants, etc.
Structure: There is a good chance that I will get you to draw a little bit each night (at least 3 half hour sketches

Fanfiction Class Lesson Four and Five
Lesson 4:
There is nothing worse than a poorly written story. Even if English is not your first language, there are always programs and classes to help you. I'm sure that most programs to write in have some sort of spell check form. Even deviantArt has that little red line under misspelled words. And if you can't access the spell check but at least have the little red line (Like me) then use google, it's there to help you *wink*.
Even if you try really hard on your story, simple spelling and grammar errors can make the rest of your story completely loose its effect and give it a "bs-ed" feel. And if you want to be able to have correct gram

Winter 2012
Overview:
The goal of this class is to learn basic human anatomy. We will go over the shapes and proportions of the human body and take a look at basic human skeletons and musculature. There will be two required assignments for the class: one at the start to gauge skill levels, and another around midterm to check improvement. Recommended assignments will also be given each week, but are not required. There is a class final at end of term.
This class is the basic basic level, if you're interested in a more intermediate or advanced look at human

Creativity & Color - Week 4
The controversial subject I am choosing is actually one somewhat close to my heart-Police officers. It seems more and more cops are given a bad reputation. It's easy to see why when there are countless videos floating around the internet about how horrible the police can be and how news stations will keep the subject going long after it should have died out. Adding to this is the fact that many people get nervous around cops and feel they are out the get them in some way.
The thing is though, while there many be thousands of videos of police being pricks there are very few showing how nice most of them are and ho

Safety
Like all things, there are some safety rules you need to be aware of. This is by no means a dangerous subject, but accidents do happen. You can avoid potentially harmful accidents from happening. It takes just a few seconds for an accident to happen, but only one second to prevent it.
1. Don't run with scissors. Your mother said it. Your teachers said it. Now I'm saying it. Don't run with scissors.
2. Don't run with needles and pins and unpickers. Even if they're in their cases.
3. Be aware of small children and pets in the house. Small, shiny things like needles and pins will always get their attention. They'll touch it, they'll p
