Book Talk: Little Characters with Big Hearts Workshop: Making a Scene!
Join Katherine for a fun and interactive session all
about the process of making her critically
acclaimed picture books. Find out where she gets
her ideas and how they develop into characters
that amble across the page. Get an insight into
how she makes her textured artwork and discover
how she combines words and images to create her
playful stories. Students will also enjoy several
interactive book readings and live illustration
activities. Katherine shares her experiences as
an illustrator, from her beginnings as
a student to working professionally
in the field. Using her own picture
books, Katherine demonstrates how
she works to capture a story vividly
on the page. Learn all about
drawing expressive characters and
how to capture personality
through facial expressions and
body language. Participants will
benefit from a range of fun
illustration techniques and will
come away with a new character
and the first illustrated page in
what could be their very own
picture book.
