Overview

Each class will include themed Power Point presentations, introducing artists, their work and new approaches to creating graphic narratives. New techniques will be explored including ink washes and integrating photographs. Students will have the opportunity for moments of quiet to develop their own stories, time for critical feedback from both the tutor and the group, as well as sessions involving artist models to inform their work. Optionally, guidance on zine production can be provided if students would like to produce a zine together, as a culmination to the course.

Please note you will need to have taken Evening Graphic Narratives 1 prior to taking this course.
