The joy of sticks: character creation for bad artists

This event will take place online. Click here to sign up.

This workshop will take you through a process for creating cartoons with strong characterisation which assumes absolutely no artistic training or talent (although if you have existing artistic skills you are also very welcome). Rachel Rowan Olive is a researcher and artist/illustrator/zine-maker whose first zines were stick figure cartoons about the mental health system; she then expanded to stick figures of her other major obsession, dogs. Come along to test the boundaries of the form for telling your own stories or sharing your own special interests.

This workshop will be run by Rachel Rowan Olive (she/her) @rrowanolive on socials / https://rachelrowanolive.etsy.com / https://www.rachelrowanolive.com

You will need:

  • Pen or pencil

  • Paper

Note: This session is aimed at those 18+.
