Illustration Workshop: The ART of Stories

During my reading and writing workshops, children have hundreds of questions about illustration. Do writers have to draw pictures for their own stories? is the most common question. I can answer that one, but I cannot always answer the others. 

And that’s why the third and last guest session for this edition of my online creative writing programmes is an illustration workshop with author-illustrator Tanvi Bhat. With her, participants will learn to look at illustration through the lens of storytelling.
The visuals often weave a story of their own – how do they do that?
Planning, pagination, characters and background design are important. How can we bring them into the illustration process? 

Tanvi Bhat is a children’s book illustrator and author who has created books for publishers like Pratham Books, Duckbill and Tulika Books, to name a few. She likes working with watercolours and gouache when making pictures, and scribbling on scraps of paper that she’s constantly losing when she writes.

Although The Art of Stories is a guest session for participants at my online creative writing programmes, it is also open to non-participants on payment of a fee.
