How to Draw Your Pet in the Style of Manga with Acomb Artist Greg McGee

Join Acomb artist Greg McGee for a fun, creative workshop exploring how to draw your pet in the style of Manga. Bring along a photo of your cat, dog, rabbit or favourite animal and learn how to turn them into a Manga-inspired character. Greg will guide you through simple drawing techniques, helping you think about expression, personality, shape and style while creating your own finished artwork. No previous drawing experience is needed, and all art materials will be provided. Come along, try something new and give your pet a Manga makeover! Help shape a new artwork for Acomb Library. The drawings created in this workshop will inspire a new artwork by artist Greg McGee. For children aged 8+ Do you have any access needs? Please email [email protected]. We will do our best to help.
