Great poems make great comics. In this class, Cara Goldstein will explore the balance of words and images while looking at poetic cartoonists such as Gabrielle Bell, Hope Larson, Nate Powell, Lilli Carré, and Craig Thompson. Pieces in Dave Morice's book PoetryComics, which covers poems by Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allan Poe, and William Shakespeare, will also be read. All levels of drawing and writing are welcome.
