1-2day Throwdowns - $125day
A full daylong wild throwdown built to mine your innate storytelling, enhance your character design styles and blast you into a higher artistic intuitive space for yourself
2+ days and private instruction have this same chase with an ongoing
collaborative attack on your personal needs as an artist/human

The breakdown...
Who? Any level of artist...beginner to advanced
Groups of four to start....dates to be announced according to group.
Solo and Youth sessions as well - you make the call for your needs
What? Character Design Sculpture Storytelling Throwdowns 1-5 dayers
Topics: CharacterDesign/Sculpture/Storytelling/Anatomy/ArtTheory
Where? At The Superadvanced Studios in San Francisco....and beyond
When? As students come...we build...Saturday-Sunday Daylongs to start
How? You express interest and we go from there....then the throwdown.
Why? To give artists/humans a wild transformative experience in your
art/life and your relationship to your art and the character of it
