LET’S DRAW!
A one-day drawing workshop by internationally syndicated cartoonist and illustrator Gerry Rasmussen
Drawing From a Cartoonist’s Perspective
In this workshop we will explore drawing from the basics up. Where do lines and gestures come from, and how can we use drawing to think and imagine. We’ll create our own new characters and then make them move and interact with each other while creating worlds for them. Be prepared to make some mess as we will have a lot of fun with pencils, pens, ink, brushes, twigs, and various other drawing tools. No previous drawing experience necessary!
