Unleash your child’s imagination in this ultimate 3-week creative adventure! Over the course of three action-packed, 2-hour classes, young artists will transform old, broken toys into an original, fully realized custom character. From sculpting to storytelling, they will bring their character to life across multiple mediums, culminating in their very own comic book and custom trading card!
Whether they love action figures, drawing, or world-building, this unique series guides them step-by-step through the entire creative process. No prior experience is needed—just big imaginations! Create an image for this class description
Hosted By Jeff Trax
My name is Jeff Trax, and I've been teaching art class in Ypsilanti Public Schools for 27 years. Over that time I've taught K-12th grades both in person and in recent years onlilne/in-person. I've also taught my own summer art programs that spanned three years (about 10 years ago). I am a collage artist primarily, but I also enjoy making sculpture (particularly found object sculptures). I create my own trading card sets and toys. In addition to my own card sets, have been an artist for about 10 different non-sport card publishers over the last 10 years. My philosophy of art is simple: anyone can create art, because there is no wrong way to create it.
