Here are some testimonials from past students of Colton’s from KSOA:
"Your teaching skills are impeccable; your passion for and insight on comics are apparent and shine in your teachings, your lessons are concise and digestible, and you have much patience for interruptions. Your passion is infectious as well; I've read more comics in just the past several weeks than I have in what feels like years, maybe ever!”
Another wrote:
“I learned so much! A proper history of comic books, the importance of layout/thumbnails and a great re-introduction to colour theory and inking. Also, just a lot of industry tips and tricks that may get overlooked. Colton has a great eye for detail and simplicity, and how to apply both where it matters.”
