Woods-Yee is enrolled in a Design II art class where she works on some of her cartoons. And, she works on these computer-generated pieces outside of school hours, too.
She first creates an outline of the single-frame cartoon and then works to fill it in. Some of her cartoons are in color; others are black and white.
Where does she get her ideas? She admits that it’s difficult to say. “They just come to me,” she told The Icon.
The Icon will add her cartoons as a new feature. Two cartoons, one a single-frame, and the other, a six-frame piece are attachment at the bottom of this story.
Vickie Garmon is the BHS art teacher.
