Essential Sequential Comic Drawing Workshops

Children and adults can all learn how to create their own comic strip in an Essential Sequential Comic Drawing Workshop.
With the help of a comics professional everyone will learn how to…

  • Develop your own story
  • Plan your panels out in rough
  • Create amazing inked artwork with text and colour!

Fantastic drawing skills are not required in order to create a brilliant comic in this workshop. The process, incorporating tools and techniques used by professionals, helps even the most timid artist tell their story effectively.

What happens to all the comics produced during the workshop?

Every comic created during the workshop will appear in a professionally designed comic book (like the ones you can see above) with a credit to the artist.

The final comic is delivered in a range of formats suitable for printing in-house, at a commercial printers or to distribute digitally via a website or social media.

What do the comics created look like?

Below are just a small selection of comic book pages produced by individuals attending Essential Sequential comic drawing workshops held at various venues.

What do our clients say about the Comic workshops?

Here’s what Oliver Payne, Programme Manager at Musical Keys, a Norwich based charity providing a services to people with special and/or additional needs across East Anglia, said this about the series of comic drawing workshops provided for them:

[quote]”Before Stuart (Workshop Leader) delivered any workshop he was very keen to understand the needs and abilities of each individual, instigating a meeting to discuss an appropriate delivery approach and to ensure all participants’ needs were met. Throughout the workshops Stuart was very proactive and enthusiastic and was able to build a rapport with the large group of participants – the work that was produced was outstanding, the ideas of each participant were carefully facilitated and some beautiful, otherworldly and frankly far-out comics were created.”[/quote]
