When 7th grader Danny needs a new best friend, she draws Madison, the most amazing, perfect, and awesome best friend ever. Graphic novelist Kristen Gudsnuk, author of Making Friends, uses Danny’s story to introduce the basic visual storytelling tools of comics and graphic novels. Students will learn to use word balloons and complex facial emotions in comics, as well as how to draw basic anatomy and design their own characters.
Ages 10 to 13. Maximum 20 participants.
Kristen Gudsnuk is the creator of the graphic novel Making Friends and the comic series Henchgirl, and the illustrator of the book series VIP by Jen Calonita.
