There is a big difference between a drawing and an illustration. Whatever your sketchbooks are filled with can be used to create an engaging sense of storytelling. From observational drawings to drawing from imagination, you will explore how to make the most of your sketches by turning them into powerful illustrations. In this workshop you will learn about perspective, composition, atmosphere, and character development, in order to create visual stories with humour and true feeling.
Outline: Start with introductions, then move on to some teaching and off to the practice exercises. There will be a 15 minute break for tea in the middle of the session. Some review and direction is offered at the end if wanted.
Who is this workshops suited for?
Everyone who wants to learn new drawing techniques and develop their skills and style, and most importantly have fun drawing. For beginners and experienced artists.
What to bring?
Your favourite media, a black fine liner pen or a black marker, and your sketchbook. We will have coloured pencils, crayons, black sharpies, and paper available. Also tea and biscuits for a break.
