Cartoon drawing course for beginners

When

Thursdays, 6:30pm to 9pm Thursday 4 September to Thursday 9 October Thursday 6 November from 6:30pm to 9pm Thursday 11 December from 6:30pm to 9pm

The second workshop starts from 6th November to 11th December

From the single-panel editorial cartoons of the newspapers to the walls of city streets, cartoons are everywhere. This Cartoon Drawing Course for Beginners will instruct you on how to get started with drawing your own cartoons, helping you develop a range of different techniques.

If you struggle with stick-people and haven't picked up a pencil since your school days, never fear- this class is not about virtuoso drawing skills.

Throughout the cartoon drawing course, we will demystify drawing to create simplified and iconic cartoons, how to create comedic pacing, dramatic tension and a clear flow for the reader, amongst other storytelling techniques.

This Cartooning for Beginners Class will be based around your ideas - your own stories, jokes, characters and style. You will start with an idea and develop it over the 6 weeks by applying what you learn in class.

Basic caricature for political cartooning will be included in the cartoon drawing course, however, due to its reliance on a strong understanding of portraiture, caricature as a stand-alone form of cartooning will not be covered in depth.
