Edutainment | Manga Workshop

If you like to draw and want to learn more about how the art of manga works, this is the workshop for you! We will venture into the mysterious world of imaginative characters and heroes, systematically and step by step! 

We'll start by studying the eyes and gradually learn the whole spectrum of faces, bodies, and endowments. Using the right techniques and tricks, manga drawing isn't hard at all. Everyone can develop and draw their own manga character, dress them, do their hair, and invent a little story to go with them! Together we will learn to set the characters in motion, take different perspectives, and add dramatic effects to the stories. Everyone is welcome here, whether you're experienced or just starting out! Each participant receives a practice booklet and of course we have all the tools at hand for you: special pencils for pre-drawing and coloring, and surfaces for drawing on. At the end of the workshop there will be a small exhibition of the artwork created.
